The 15 Easiest Dogs to Travel With - MSN
Dogs of all shapes and sizes can make the perfect traveling companions for people with a passion for travel, whether by land, sea or air.
Globetrotting dog owners should not be restricted to choosing only the smallest breed—even when traveling by airplane—according to the American Kennel Club (AKC).
Its Chief Veterinary Officer Dr. Jerry Klein tells Newsweek: "Different airlines have their own specific pet policies, but, if your pet carrier (with your pet inside) can fit under the seat in front of you, your dog can ride in the cabin on flights that allow it.
"This would be a dog weighing up to about 20 pounds. Always check with your airline to confirm specific requirements.
"Dogs that exceed the 20 lb. requirement for in-cabin travel, must fly as cargo.
