| Carry on pet two in same carrier? I have two yorkies and one is about 7lbs and the other is about 5-6lbs I have checked with airlines and paid for them they can go on with me as long as they both fit in the same carrier. 17L 12W 12H They do fit but it is like a perfect fit so they can stand up and lay down but thats about it there wont be a whole lot of room left with both in there. I just wanted to know if that would be safe for them to fly like that, another thing I am in Germany going to Oklaoma so it is a long flight and I just don't think they could take it going under the cabin and I don't think they can go without each other right there. Can anyone help me??? |

| Thats what I need where would I find one? I have one little problem. My husband is military and we are stationed overseas, Well he deployed in Jan and we still have 4 months to go. I am going crazy so yesterday Feb23 I booked a trip to Oklahoma where my family is. For March 3rd so I have a week to figure it out! what does that carrier measure? Also what about the Vet giving me some kind of Meds to help with the long flight its going to be a good 17 hour trip all together. |

| I got some meds from the vet last time we went to Oklahoma which was in July and I still have plenty left I just don't know if they are still good and I would hate to give my girls something and have a bad reaction with it. Im just not sure if for there comfort they will be able to stay in one carrier, My girls aren't XS they are Small but not tiny Lily is 6lbs, and Daisy is about 7-8lbs I just want to make sure they have enough room I have to work with a 17L, 12W, 12H carrier! |

| Sherpa makes many different sizes........ find out what the airline limits are on carry-ons, and then take a look. www.petsmart.com You will want to make sure that they are both comfy in it!!

| I don't think I have time to order one and I am in Germany. I just don't want to get to the airport and them not let me take the girls on! They don't have a weight limit it just has to be a 18L 12W 12H carrier. |

| I can't believe this thread was here! I have to bring both dogs on a flight to Florida and had no idea how to do that. I found the Sherpa double carrier online. The measurements are 19x11x11.25 and it goes for anywhere from $65.00 to about 88.00.

| I don't have time to order one. Heres the things. My husband is in the military and he deployed Jan 1st for 6 months we are also stationed overseas in Germany. I thought I could get through the 6 month here by myself. Well I got 2 down and can't take it. I booked the tickets for the 3rd of March so I don't think I will get the carrier in time. How much do your babies weigh? my girls aren't tiny I just want to make sure they get on the plane with me if that means them be in the same carrier with enough room to lay down an sleep. Is that wrong of me to think that way? |

| Thanks I feel like it would be wrong for me to make them fly so tight but if they new what would be ahead of them under the plane they would be happy tight!!! I just don't want my girls going down there!!!! |

| Well I called the airline again just to make sure on the size and they said they two could not go together after they already told me they could and that is why I went with Delta in the first place! The lady said just to tell them whats going on as far as me taking both of them my Husband would take one and me take the other if he wasn't deployed so she said to just explain and they shouldn't have a problem and when I get to the next flight not to make a show of them so they wont notice both and maybe not say anything. Should I take the chance? |
