Introduce your puppy or dog to their new crate slowly over time and make it a pleasant experience.Praise and reward your pet for going and staying inside their crate, and never use it as a place for punishment.

Pack a travel crate, medication, food and water bowls, toys, food, treats, leash and collar with pet I.D. tag, brush, complete pest control and waste pick up bags.

Using a crate is a great way to help keep your dog safe and limit driver distractions on car rides.

Make sure your dog is acclimated to the crate, and make sure the crate is properly assembled. Attach live animal stickers, declaration stickers and contact information to the outside of the crate. Place an absorbent pad inside the crate, along with a comfortable mat and favorite toy. Confirm with the airline that your travel crate meets their requirements.

Since air travel rules vary by carrier , check with the specific airline for approved sizes. The crate should be large enough for your dog to easily stand up, lie down and turn around easily.
