The world we live in today is vastly different from the world we used to inhabit back in the day. Back then, if you decided to go on vacation, you had to leave your dog at home. For most dog owners, traveling abroad and exploring new locations without their four-legged companion by their side is a waste of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, for the trip to take place, you must adhere to the rules. In addition to keeping your pet’s veterinary inspection certificate on hand, you’ll want to ensure that your pet is allowed on the plane (in a cabin or otherwise). Airlines have a restricted range of carrier dimensions, and the dog’s weight must match the specifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The animal’s weight must be less than 20 pounds, including the weight of the pet carrier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your dog is one of the dog breeds that fit under airplane seat, you’re in luck. And if you’re just looking to get a pet but also enjoy traveling, the list below can come in handy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jack Russell Terriers are gentle dogs that are also excellent travel companions. These puppies, with a height of 10 to 12 inches, can comfortably fit into airplane carriers. Furthermore, their playful disposition makes them ideal emotional support dogs for owners looking for animals that require constant care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Maltese, one of the most beautiful white dogs, is tiny, joyful, and fearless. They are also one of the best dogs to travel with. Since they weigh less than seven pounds and stand eight to eleven inches tall, these small dogs fit perfectly under an airplane bench.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, Maltese dogs are susceptible to chills and may become ill if they stay wet for an extended period of time. As a result, you’ll need some absorbing pads within the carrier to absorb any mishaps throughout the flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yorkshire Terriers (or Yorkies) are definitely amongst the dog breeds small enough to fly in cabin and can comfortably fit under an airplane seat, with an average shoulder height of 8 to 9 inches and 4 to 7 pounds. This means you can bring your emotional support dog with you on your next flight! Furthermore, Yorkies do not need much exercise, which helps them to remain relaxed and comfortable while sleeping in their crate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The magnificent and aristocratic Pomeranian is another adorable little dog that can fit under an airplane seat. Because of their gentle temperament and joyful spirit, these tiny dogs make excellent companions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pomeranians form strong bonds with their owners and can be loud barkers when left alone. As a result, they would be miserable if they are forced to fly as freight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, most Pomeranians weigh no more than 3-7 pounds and easily fit into an airplane carrier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, if you have a large throwback Pomeranian, you might have a problem. Although it is uncommon, Pomeranians can grow to weigh more than 12-15 pounds due to a genetic mutation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
