-----------------------------------------------------------------
Approved for use on Major Airlines means that a carrier:
* Provides adequate ventilation
* Is leak-proof
* Safely encloses the pet
* Conforms to underseat dimensions

however ONLY Sherpa® carriers are Guaranteed On Board®.
Guaranteed On Board® is the only program that guarantees a
Sherpa® carrier meets an airline's specific rules and regulations
and will be allowed on board. All small and medium Sherpa®
carriers are included in the GOB program.

Questions to ask before traveling with your pet:
------------------------------------------------
* Is my pet too old or young to handle the stress of traveling?
* Is my pet in poor ?
* Is my pet recovering from surgery or a traumatic event?
* Is my pet pregnant?
* Does my pet get motion ness?
If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, check with your
vet if your pet is suited for transport in its current condition.
Prep your pet:
--------------
Be sure to purchase the correct size of carrier appropriate for
the weight of your pet. Using a carrier that is too large could
result in motion ness. Your pet should have enough room to
stand up and turn around inside the carrier.
Prior to traveling make sure to allow ample time for your pet to
familiarize itself with its carrier. We recommend purchasing a
carrier at least a month in advance to allow your pet sufficient
time to become accustomed to it.
Put the carrier in an open area so the pet can investigate and
get used to its scent and shape. Put one of your pet's toys,
treats or blankets inside the carrier to entice your pet to enter
it willingly. Do not force your pet inside the carrier. Take your
pet on short trips in the carrier so they get used to being
transported in it. If your pet does not like being inside, or
tries to escape from the carrier, we recommend further training
prior to travel or considering transporting your animal in a
hard-sided carrier.
Traveling by Plane
------------------
* Always check your airline's rules and regulations prior to
flying. Your pet should be securely in the carrier at all times
when aboard the aircraft.
* Always supervise your pet. NEVER leave your pet unsupervised or
unattended in a carrier. Failure to do so can result in damage to
the carrier, escape, or injury to your pet.
* Never give your pet sedatives or tranquilizers unless
prescribed by your vet. If prescribed, be sure to get clear and
precise instructions as to the dosage, the frequency of the
dosage and any risks involved with sedating your pet. Follow the
instructions exactly. Do not increase the dosage at your own
discretion as pets can easily be over-medicated, especially when
flying, as increased altitude can cause cardiovascular and
respiratory problems.
* Do not allow your pet to travel with a choke, pinch or training
collar. Cats should travel with a collar that has a quick release
or break-away feature.
* Leads should not be used when your pet is enclosed in the
carrier.
* Be sure your pet's collar is secure and clearly displays proof
of current vaccinations, your name, address and contact info.
Travel Tips for You and Your Pet
--------------------------------
* Book reservations for you and your pet early. Most airlines
restrict the number of pets allowed on board each flight.
* Complete and print your Guaranteed on Board® forms, or call
your airline for its specific requirements.
* Research your destination city’s pet rules & regulations, along
with those of where you will be staying.
* Prep your pet for travel. Be sure it has ample time to adjust
to its carrier and practice traveling with your pet in the
carrier on short trips prior to the big day.
* Make an appointment with your vet. Acquire a certificate
and ensure your pet is up-to-date with its s no more than 10
days prior to your departure.
* Research and create a list of local vets and emergency clinics
at your destination.
* Be sure you have all of your and your pet’s documentation in
order. Do you have your pet’s certificate? Do you have
your Guaranteed On Board® forms to show to the gate agent?
* Have your contact info clearly and securely labeled on both
your pet’s carrier and on your pet’s tags.
* Pack for your pet in advance so you can be sure nothing is
forgotten.
* Arrive early on your day of departure and allow ample time for
you and your pet to check-in and board your flight. Plan ahead
and know various locations at the airport(s) where your pet can
relive itself prior to (and between) flying.
Traveling by Car
----------------
* Always supervise your pet. NEVER leave your pet unsupervised or
unattended in a carrier. Failure to do so can result in damage to
the carrier, escape, or injury to your pet.
* Secure the carrier in the backseat of the car only. Do not
secure the carrier to the front seat - your pet will be the
safest in the back. The seatbelt can be secured through the
luggage band located on the rear side panel of the carrier. The
shoulder strap can be secured around the headrest if applicable.
* Never give your pet sedatives or tranquilizers unless
prescribed by your vet. If prescribed, be sure to get clear and
precise instructions as to the dosage, the frequency of the
dosage and any risks involved with sedating your pet. Follow the
instructions exactly. Do not increase the dosage at your own
discretion as pets can easily be over-medicated.
* Do not allow your pet to travel with a choke, pinch or training
collar. Cats should travel with a collar that has a quick release
or break-away feature.
* Leads should not be used when your pet is enclosed in the
carrier.
* Be sure your pet's collar is secure and clearly displays proof
of current vaccinations, your name, address and contact info.
