Q&A: How do you transport your dog and baby in the same car?

Sat, 24 Sep 2011 12:46:14 +0000

Question by Amber: How do you transport your dog and baby in the same car?
we have a baby and a dog. We are going out of town for the holidays and I am not real sure how I go about transporting the dog and the baby in the same car. Before the baby we put the dog in the back seat but he doesnt sit still.

Any suggestions?

Best answer:

Answer by Is it over yet?
Put the baby on one side of the seat and use a pet carrier sideways on the seat (the carrier door facing the car door), if the dog wont fit in the carrier, or the carrier in the car, get a pet harness. They secure the dog with the seat belt and keep it from moving about.

why does a Blue Healer Dog get so different riding in a car than other locations?

Question by Vicki Beach: why does a Blue Healer Dog get so different riding in a car than other locations?
He is such a smart dog and so-o pleasant usually, but when he has gotten into my Car he becomes a vicious dog who wrecked one seat belt so I decided I cannot take him in my Car again!

Answer by spidermilk666
He is probably just scared. Maybe he once had a bad experience in a car (not necessarily getting hurt- maybe he was just scared or got carsick).

You probably have to take your dog in the car sometimes- to the vet, going to the park so you’d probably both become happier if you could make him tolerate the car.

First of all it would probably help if you made him sit in a crate or dog carrier when in the car. This way he cannot destroy things or run around and get hurt. If he sleeps in a crate normally then he might feel safer this way.

Perhaps you could start feeding your dog his breakfast or dinner in the car. Just start by opening the door and feeding him while you sit on the seat, then day by day make him sit in the car while you feed him. Don’t make him do anything he doesn’t want to do- don’t force it if he is scared! Always reward him with food, toys, a walk or something fun after braving the car.

Then maybe if he gets comfortable with that you could just sit in the car with it running, then (over a matter of weeks!) work up to driving around the block. Just a few nights a week drive a short distance and then make sure to have good rewards!

Where can I buy a pet carrier for AirTran Airways that fits my 13lbs cat?

Wed, 16 Mar 2011 00:47:18 +0000

Question by Lyric: Where can I buy a pet carrier for AirTran Airways that fits my 13lbs cat?
I’m traveling with my cat on AirTran Airways and need to find a pet carrier that fits their maximum dimensions (8.5″ height x 17″ long x 12″ wide). The bag needs to be soft as the cat is going underneath the seat. The bags that fit these dimensions I found can’t support his weight (13 lbs). Do you know of any? Thank you for your help!

When traveling with a pet, such as a small dog or cat under 15/20 lbs, why do you have to be charged?

Question by trojan: When traveling with a pet, such as a small dog or cat under 15/20 lbs, why do you have to be charged?
When traveling with a pet, such as a small dog or cat under 15/20 lbs, in an approved carrier that can fit under the seat in front of you, why do you have to be charged? Airlines charge anywhere between $ 85 to $ 100 each way and the distance traveled does not affect the price. Sometimes the pet fee is higher than the passenger’s ticket if it is a short fllight.
People with young children that sit of the adults’ lap fly at no charge.
People who have carry ons that fit under the seats in front of them are not charged even the carry on is the same size as the pet carrier.
People traveling with small pets are not being treated fairly by the airlines.

Best answer:

Answer by Lulu
Legally, you can’t put anything under the seat. They don’t like to have pets on plant at all. Charge you big to discourage anyone who wants to carry a pet with them.

My mother and sister are flying from Phoenix to Manchester and want to take one pet carrier for two chihuahuas. We wanted to know what is the biggest carrier that could fit under the seat and any tips from anyone that’s flown with pets on Southwest Airlines. Thank you!
We’ve also know the pet policy, we just want to know how was it from someone who has flown with a pet on Southwest Airlines, also if they can recommend (or tell us to avoid) pet carriers that take advantage of the small space under the seat.

Pet Carriers can Save Your Pet and Your Day

Sat, 26 Feb 2011 08:43:42 +0000

I will list just a few here. The first reason that comes to mind is a video I have seen about an animal shelter worker trying to control a mature cat, without a pet carrier, that got spooked and freaked out.

You do need a dog carrier if you have a cat that travels with you or just to go to the vet office from time to time. But, you already knew that, right.

You do not want your pet moving around the car while you are driving. Of course they want to be in your lap and help drive. This is very dangerous for you, your pet and other drivers.

Pet carriers are an ideal option for traveling with cats and small dogs because they act not only as a form of protection, but also can provide a reassuring space for the pet within the vehicle, train or airplane. All pets are more relaxed in their own safe and secure den which the pet carrier provides. When you arrive at your destination you will have a happier and relaxed pet. So consider your pet and get yourself a pet carrier.

Note: Please-remember your pet on hot days. Do not leave them in the car inside or outside their carrier.

Pet Carriers have become a popular item partially due to the constant scenes on the news, in magazines and tabloids of Hollywood stars carrying their pets in some sort of fancy and stylish carrier on their arm while conducting their daily business, entertainment or otherwise.

Not all pet carriers are created equal.

Soft sided and hard sided carriers specifically designed as pet carriers are acceptable for most activities. Prices on pet carriers will vary widely depending upon the size, material and quality of the pet carrier. These can range in price from up to hundreds of dollars for designer pet carriers.

Carriers are attached to the seat belt and headrests of most vehicles, and are entirely enclosed, apart from mesh windows that allow for ventilation and for the animal to look around.

My favorite carriers are those produced for the average pet parent wanting to carry their pet without busting the budget. These carriers buckle into the seat belt in the vehicle. Once unbuckled the carrier functions as a safe and portable environment for the pet.

Some carriers are now doubling as a handbag as well as a dog carriers. These are typically not the secure type carrier.

There is one model of carrier I like very much. It comes in two pieces. One piece is the actual carrier. The other piece is the carrier base. This base is secured in the car seat belt and stays in the car. When you are ready to go you simply snap the carrier into the base just as you would a baby car seat. It is actually easier than a car seat.

Most carriers are designed for small dogs, cats, ferrets, rabbits and other reasonably tame small animals. Many manufacturers say that their carrier will handle a 15 lb pet and, this may be technically true. The question is do you really want to walk around a shopping center or a street fair toting a 15 pound dog in a dog carrier.

Most dog carriers work best for the smaller breeds.

Some carriers have wheels just like your small suitcase you pull behind you as you walk through the airport or the shopping mall. These can be very handy.

If you are a frequent flyer or think you might ever need to take your pet on a plane I suggest you check the airlines you may be traveling on for their requirements for pets. Many manufacturers say their dog carriers are airline approved however I find it hard to believe that all these manufacturers are keeping up with the regulations for all airlines. Get the dimensions then check your favorite couple of airlines for their requirements.

Depending upon airline pet policies, pet carriers may be allowed in the cabin of the aircraft as long as they can be stored under the seat but again, check with your airline first.

You can easily see that for owners who like to keep their pampered pets near them wherever they go, pet carriers are the perfect solution.
