Pet Relocation Services - Boxing Up Your Pets For Safer And Secure Travel

Planning to have your beloved pet shipped from
one country to another can be a nerve-wracking
experience. The need to relocate your furry
friend may be just a small part of your move to
an entirely new place because you're taking a
new job overseas or you're starting a new life
with your own family in a different location
from where you spent most of your own life, and
this in itself is already cause for much stress.
Nevertheless, it's necessary to ensure that your
pet will be able to travel safely and
comfortably to your new destination so that you
(humans and animals alike) can begin the new
chapter in your life together, just like before.

After checking the regulations of the country
which will be your destination to make sure that
your dog's or cat's specific age and breed are
allowed for entry, it's time to make
arrangements for the vessel that will carry your
beloved animal onboard the right airline (it's an
established fact that air travel is the safest
and most humane means of transporting live
animals over long distances). Animals being
exported from some countries must travel in an
International Air Transport Association
(IATA)-standard travel box in order to be
accepted by commercial airlines.

This travel box is no ordinary box; it should be
made of sufficiently strong materials (especially
for larger and stronger breeds of dogs), it must
have safe and appropriate ventilation, and it
should have sufficient room to enable the animal
to comfortably lie down, stand up, and turn
around. It's important to note, though, that
some pet owners may think that a roomier travel
box may be a more comfortable option, but this
is actually not so -- too much space can cause a
pet to be jostled around the large box with no
means of controlling itself. Larger boxes can
also incur larger fees. For safety and
practicality, the travel box you choose for your
pet should be just right for its size.

To help you find the perfect travel box size for
your dog, it helps to know exactly how to measure
its body. You need to measure the dog's length
(from the tip of the nose to the base of the
tail), the length of the front leg, the width,
the height when standing, and the height when
sitting upright. As for cats, in most cases they
will fit in a standard Type A VariKennel or
SkyKennel.

If you're less than confident about your critter
measuring skills, you can always choose to have
your pet measured and matched to the appropriate
travel box by professional pet relocation
services providers. Within their own facilities,
trained staff can take reliable measurements and
show you the different travel box options
available so you can pick out the one you like
best from the recommended items. Weeks before
your trip, you can help your pet get used to the
box so that there'll be no problem coaxing him
into it when the travel date comes.

Your pet is part of your family (a somewhat
smaller and hairier part of your family), and
while you cannot stay right by its side
throughout the exciting but long trip ahead of
you, you can make sure that your furry friend
stays safe and comfortable in his own travel
box. You'll have more peace of mind knowing that
your pet is secure and stress-free in the box you
chose for him.
