That is a horrible story so sorry for your loss..what a heartbreaking ordeal to have to go through! Butterfly, I'm not sure that "many" dogs die during air transport but I'm sure there are "some". I haven't seen any statistics to back up the claim that "many" die during air transport although I think it would be an important thing to get statistics on...that way people could make an educated decesion on wether to ship dogs by air or not. My last puppy was shipped in TIP TOP shape through Continental. According to their website Continental is TOPS in animal transport, they have a whole page dedicated to their procedures. Another thing my breeder does is to only ship her puppies on NON STOP flights..no layovers. I know this can be difficult sometimes but she feels it's best for the puupies and I agree. My Georgia came to me spic and span. |
