A relative is flying his dog from Sydney to Perth. Yes, he’s asking the dog’s vet for advice at his check-up, but would like to get recent experiences and hints etc.

The dog gets nauseous when travelling so he is always doped up during long car trips. Thanks

The Airline itself should also be asked for advise, they are shipping dogs and other livestock frequently.

Yes, he’s asking there too. We want some real-life experiences etc.

I would also consider the use of an aeroplane or a balloon.

Not as cheap as flying a dog though.

I wouldn’t do it. Dogs have worse aerodynamics than pigs.

Right then, that is my seriously too extensive collection of videos sorted into storage. I just can’t throw them away yet. And I’ve moved my sewing machine cabinet. Next is the cutting table to be pulled apart and reassembled in the library.

Although how that relates to dogs is a bit difficult to fathom.

Sorry.
