This is a quick post to tell you what you already know, if you follow Dog Jaunt’s Facebook page: I wrote a guest post for CheapOair (a budget travel site that also has a popular blog) about in-cabin pets and passengers with pet allergies.… Read the rest
The blog has taken a back seat to wrapping packages and writing cards, but happily you guys have picked up the slack. I have three reader’s reports to share with you over the coming days, and here’s the first. Chelsea and her husband are Americans living in Vienna, and they recently traveled back to the U.S.… Read the rest
I have a stack of great stuff in my in-box from Dog Jaunt readers, and I’m making progress on sharing it with you. Here are two tips from a couple of fellow travelers, and one from me.
As you may already know, Chloe is crate-trained, and we carry a medium-sized version of her big metal crate with us when we travel.… Read the rest
Reader Kristina (who recommended the Found My Animal leash I wrote a blog post about a short while ago) recently returned from a trip to Paris with Kara, her Chinese Crested, and bubbled with joy: “WOW! Paris was so awesome with dogs!… Read the rest

She and reader Patty made their way from the Bahamas to British Columbia recently, and I want to share three things from their report.… Read the rest
In September 2009, I wrote a quick post about a PetEgo carrier that I yearned for but didn’t actually need: the Pet at Work Travel System, a backpack that holds a laptop and a small dog and a collapsible crate.… Read the rest
This post was inspired by a comment on Dog Jaunt’s Facebook page from reader Genny, who recently traveled with Eva, her Papillon, from Seattle to Michigan and back. She mentioned that although everything went smoothly, Eva did try digging through the bottom of her carrier during one take-off.… Read the rest
A long time ago, I told you about my love for the Filson Travel Vest, and how it improves flying with an in-cabin dog. You stow all the gear you’re likely to need during flight in its vast pockets, and you’ll never miss your purse or backpack, out of reach in the overhead compartment.… Read the rest
