Luckily my flight is under 5 hours so they will allow him on the plane. The restrictions about brachy breeds seem a whole lot more prevalent overseas. He has never been put in a confined space so I'm picking up a crate after work today . I have 5 weeks of trying to make the crate his fave hangout spot! He is a very healthy dog, my only concern is he does fret. Wish me luck, thanks everyone.
