Question by BrightEyedBlasphemer: Sneaking our dog with us on a bus…?
My fiance and I have to travel in a couple of weeks. His cousin is coming home for his last surprise visit before being deployed. The same weekend, another close cousin is graduating from high school. Basically, it’s very important we are able to get home for a period of time. Unfortunately, we are unable to rent a car, our vehicle is in disrepair, and ‘home’ is some 8 hours away. As we can’t afford to fly, we must take a bus.
Here’s the problem. We have a dog, and we can’t find anyone to watch him, nor can we afford a kennel service. Of course, Greyhound has a no-pet policy. We have a dog carrier that is quite discrete–it basically looks like a nice bag–and as our dog is quite small (he’s a pomeranian) he’d be easy enough to sneak on, in theory anyway. He’s always been quiet and well behaved on previous road trips north. But of course, this is a last resort, and we’re nervous about the idea. Has anyone brought a dog on a bus trip undercover? Any stories to share, or even tips?

Question by : How do I best fly with a puppy as a carry-on?
Most of the search results I find discuss how to prepare your dog from cargo transport. I am having a hard time finding good tips for how to best fly with a puppy as a carry-on. My beagle puppy will be 11 1/2 weeks when he flies, and I worry about several things. Most importantly, how do I best prevent the puppy from having to go in his carrier (something that crate training is supposed to prevent)? If he does have to go, is there anything to do besides handle the whimpering until he wets himself? Also, has anyone heard of flight-specific problems that would cause a dog discomfort (e.g. ear popping, etc.)? I know it will be tough to keep our dog quiet in a carrier for the long flight as it is, I am mostly wondering if I should expect something out of the ordinary.
Any other advice would also be well appreciated.
Thanks for the concern about whether or not the airline will allow this, but it has been cleared by the airline and vet (pending the required check-up 10 days before the flight).

Answer by kingdrake2 my advice: have a blanket or something that has your smell so it doesn’t be lonely. if it is a vacation it may be the best idea to have it left at a pet hotel ie kennel shelter until your return. make sure to have your dog “eliminate” its bowels and bladder before getting on plane it will be a stressful time for it but it should survive, make sure to have its records in case you don’t have those (some airlines require em) just a vaccinations list.

Fractional Seat Ownership FSO Welcome to MyJets, MyJets, Inc has developed a new air transportation model called FSO (Fractional Seat Ownership), a new concept which redefines the future of private air travel. The MyJets business model is unique and focused on saving time for a busy executive who needs to travel weekly between two locations that are within 500 miles of each other without having to charter a whole aircraft, buy a fractional ownership of a whole aircraft or be forced to fly on a commercial carrier. The price per flight is comparable to an airline ticket, and the Investment for the Fractional Ownership of the Seat and the monthly fee for management and maintenance are easily justified by the timesavings achieved. MyJets allows the executive who travels weekly to the same destination, the opportunity to buy a share on an airplane corresponding to his/her own seat. This is an inexpensive way to benefit from all the advantages of a private jet without the cost. The MyJets model has most of the cost and frequency advantages of the commercial airline, while having the comfort, security, and speed advantages of the private air charter. (Please read well this is fractional ownership) The target customer is the executive who does not live close to one of the 500 airports serviced by commercial airlines and who wastes hours driving to the airport, parking, checking in, going through security, getting a rental car and then driving to the destination. For example …
