It has been my dream to go to Scotland, and this summer or early Fall I am going. I want to Bring Tikeya, because I'll be going to live there for a couple of months. I think that if I don’t go now while I just graduated, then I will never go. I won’t go unless I have my dog with me. So I crate trained Tikeya. Has anyone here travelled with his or her dog before on plane? I have never been out of Canada so this would be a HUGE experience for Tikeya and I.

You might need to contact the Scottish government top find out what they require before you can bring a pet into their country. I know that many want a quarrentine perios as well as a battery of shots. The quarrentine can be in your house, depending on the country, etc.
That sounds so exciting! Good luck and have fun!

Wow, neat! I'd love to go to Scotland too!
I have never traveled with a pet on the plane, but I do know that it costs a boat load of money to transport your pet overseas and is EXTREMELY stressful on the animal most of the time.
Where will you be staying in Scotland!?

Sounds like a great trip! I was born in Scotland, and my family and I go every July/August for a vacation.
I am sure you will love it - it is a beautiful place!!
I would also suggest you check out the quarantine regulations!
Thanks Kay for my great sig & avatar!!!

I believe someone to talk to about the the crate training and dogs traveling on an airplane would be Souraya. They only recently traveled to Germany with Drakester, and the trip went smoothly. I'm sure she would be very helpful with that information.
As was already suggested, definitely check into the quarantine laws in Scotland!!
Wonderful news though--it sounds like fun--definitely an experience you won't want to pass up!!!!!

I am going to assume this is Scotland, England. If not correct me and I'll delete this post :P
If so, you'll have to apply for entry based on the PETS scheme to avoid quarantine.
This involves microchipping your dog, getting a rabies shot.
A month later get blood tested.
Wait 6 months and fill out a mountain of paperwork and you'll be issued a certificate to travel with.
Visit this website for more information.

If you started the process tomorrow, you should be ready to travel by November 04.

I think that since she's good in the car, she'll do well in the plane. There are lots of regulations regarding animals and planes because the airline wants to make sure the animals are as ocmfortable as possible. You'll need to have proof of vaccination, and Tikeya will have to be in her nice big crate.
My pup is costing me $100-200 to be shipped from Ontario, and he/she might be 15-20 pounds. Plus the crate will be much smaller, and he will be going a much shorter distance. So you can look at a price twice as much as mine for distance, plus another probably three times as much for the size of the crate, and another 3 times as much because she weighs more.
I've been BOO'd!

Here is a good site. It has tips on what to do before you travel with your dog.
