Packing for Air Travel

After 300K miles in the air with puppies, this I have down to a science. TSA being TSA can be a pain, however these are the things I would carry that would cover me for delays and cancellations..
1. Leash/Harness
2. A meal or 2 worth of Food (you can always get chicken)
3. Petco carries a 3.5oz size of Nutri-cal - this is a must have.
4. Wee Pads (stash them underneath the liner of your sherpa bag
5. A couple favorite bones and toys
6. Benedryl (a caplet will do just precut if a puppy) this can be given if you puppy reacts to anything or just wont settle down or gets a little airsick.

Believe it or not this is ALL you need to carry in cabin...

Happy Traveling!!!!!

SHOW DOG by Josh Dean
Every weekend, for nearly fifty weeks each year, tens of thousands of Americans pack up their SUVs and minivans with crates and dryers and treats and shampoos and hairsprays and plush toys and fan out for some of the two-thousand-plus dog shows held annually across the United States. More than
two million pedigreed dogs, and exponentially more humans who handle and care for them, will take part in these events—for the most part happily—and the world that has grown up to support them is massive and vibrant, and almost impossible
to imagine unless you've seen it in person.
By spending a year alongside rising star Jack, a champion Australian shepherd, and his canine and human friends, magazine journalist Josh Dean yanks back the curtain on the dog show world, providing not just a hilarious and often
touching portrait of a colorful subculture only slightly exaggerated in the film Best in Show, but also a revealing look at our love affair with the world's most doted-upon and tinkered-with animal species, examining the colossal array of dog types and humans who love them. The book follows Jack as he matures over the course of a year, from still-improving adolescent to seasoned adult show dog. We get to know him and the people around him—his owner, his handler, his breeder—to experience what it's like to own a show dog and to train one. And we come to appreciate him for what he is, a lovable and intelligent house pet—albeit one with a highly unusual occupation.
Along the way, Dean takes a close look at the eccentric and fascinating world of breeders and dog show fanciers—exploring the history and science of purebred dog breeding and the evolution of canine perfection via dog show culture, with
that pursuit's many related peculiarities: judging, training, naming, promoting, hairstyling, kennel-owning, RV-driving, hotel-finding, treat-selecting, and more.
