Do you Love flying? Well if you do, you are probably in the minority. Most people hate the lack of control and pull of gravity scares many. And as for the seating, well that’s just plain cramped and uncomfortable. However, if you think your seating is cramped consider flying in a crate, which is how all dogs have to travel on an airplane. This is where crate training could help.

Any dogs traveling on an airline flight have to be confined in an approved crate, no ifs ands or buts, it’s the law. So if you want your dogs to fly with you then they have to be crated. If they have never been in a crate before, they are going to be well stressed. Unfamiliar surroundings are bad enough but to be confined in a crate with all of the engine noise must be truly frightening if your dog is not crate trained.

Crate training is a must if you are planning to fly with your dog. A crate trained dog will think of his or her crate as a safe pace and will thus find the experience less daunting than would be otherwise be the case. This will put your mind at ease as well as make for a happier dog, which is the ultimate aim after all!
