    I have, with no problems. I only fly United or Alaska/Horizon Airlines with my pets. I flew from Baltimore to San Jose. Never had a problem and they always took good care of my pups. Have any specific questions?

    I have never used San Jose, only San Francisco and for airlines only American and Delta.. Years ago Delta offered "Delta Dash" that was counter to counter service… of course I was such a wreck that after flying a couple of my B's as baggage... I will not do it any more....
    But that said, I am told that American, Delta and Continental are some of the best airlines to fly...

    I have flown from Oregon to San Jose and had a 8 week old pup in my lap the whole way. No problems except for him having gas which really stunk :)
    I had my sharpa bag under the seat but kept him in my lap covered by my jacket and a towel to hide him.

    i havent flown to where your talking but my caira had a litter of pups and i shipped them from michigan to pa, md, and co. the only problem i had was with the weather but the airline wont take a dog unless a certain degree. but at far as getting there when it was warm enough it was fine.

    You might reach out to BRAT and ask if they have any foster's in your area that would dog-sit for you. They seem to have Basenji foster parents in every city, so they are experienced with Basenji's and would be able to adapt to short stays. Offer a "donation" of sorts and make it very clear that you are not surrendering your little lady. (worth a shot)

    I agree, I go to a park near my house where people often take their dogs and unleash them, there is plenty of open grass but the street is right there. People are always telling me to let him loose so he can play with their dogs and I never do!! I explain to them about the breed and they look at me weird. They don't get it, I wish there were parks here with fenced areas for dogs but there aren't any, he is only off leash when I go to someones house that has a fenced yard, like my moms or my brothers house, but these are small yards not really big open areas, but I know that it's just too dangerous,a and the thing is that because of that I have not been able to practice recall with him in a an open area. only in small areas or in my apartment.

    @snorky998: Saw a young male in Milwaukee on Saturday walking near the lake front toward the Circus Wagon Parade grounds. We were stuck in traffic and could only yell out the window to say what a cutie he was. Was accompanied by a male 2 legger and another small dog. Anyone from the forum? I dunno, but "male 2 legger" made me laugh! :D

    I have seen the people who have dogs in the large crates weighed at check in. Only because it was a large carrier. Honestly I would carry her because it gives the appearance that they are lighter then they appear.
