I cannot disagree with you on this. It's everyone's choice how they want to travel with their pups.
Cody is a rescue, I got him when he was 2 1/2 years old, he cannot be crated. His prev. owner had him crated 10 hours a day while they were at work. Now if he goes in a crate he bites at it, my groomer has him in for her last appt. so he is not crated and I am always back 20 minutes before he is finished. My groomer is concerned he will break his teeth. I adopted him through my vet, he needed major surgery shortly after I adopted him, the techs told me how bad he was, so crating while traveling is out of the question for me.
