I have an Australian Shepherd that is aprox. 55lbs. in good health and has all of his shots that needs to go to Albuquerque, NM. If anyone out there can help me get this beautiful dog there that would be much appreciated. My name is Delanie and my email address is [email protected]. My telephone number is 320-304-4180. Thank you for the help in transporting this dog to his new home.

Hi Delanie,

You might consider having the aussie fly by commercial airlines since this transport would require a lot of pilots from PNP and also a foster home at each drop-off/pick-up location in case there is a delay because of weather or other issues that could come up. The weather has definitely cooled off to where the airlines would fly a dog. I'm not sure which airlines, but I'm sure someone else can help, that fly animals. I think Delta and American do, but again, someone else can correct me if I'm wrong and add other ones that I've missed.

Best wishes and thanks for helping this Aussie!!

Delanie,

Nancy is correct. This would be a very long transport for the general aviation community.

Out of Minneapolis I would suggest using Delta Airlines (former Northwest). They have a great pet shipment program and the temperatures this time of year are within the limits at the departure and arrival cities.

I am a Delta pilot and I will be doing a Minneapolis to Abluqerque leg in November (I don't have the dates in front of me at the moment). I can escort your pup on this leg. You would have to go through the normal shipping process and pay the normal fees; however, I would be able to call you from Minneapolis to let you know your pup is on the flight I am flying and then call you again when we get to Abluqerque.

This is the link to the Delta Airlines website pet shipment. If the link does not work, google "Delta Airlines Pet Shipment"

Let me know if I can help.
