I am thinking about picking up my puppy and then driving back to my house which is a couple states away. Will this be to stressful ? I heard that it's not good to fly Shih Tzus because of the short noses. Is this true

Stress-Free Puppy Travel
by: Janice

Picking up a new puppy is very exciting, but the thought of having to travel hundreds of miles to get him home can be less than fun. I wrote a new article about puppy travel and you can find it here on this site at https://www.miracleshihtzu.com/puppy-travel.com.

I hope this answers some of your questions and alleviates some of your concerns. We meet puppy buyers frequently half way between their home and ours and it is always a fun excursion. Puppies travel well in cars, but if the distance is too great, flying is also real possibility.

Check out the article and let us know what you think.

I hold an undergraduate degree in Psychology with a minor in biology, Early Childhood Education, and Nursing, and a Master's in Mental Health Counseling.

I'm a lifelong learner, a dog lover, and passionate about the welfare of animals. Though Shih Tzu is my favorite breed, I've also lived with Poodles, Maltese, Yorkshire Terriers, Beagles, English Bulldogs, Carin Terriers, and a Cocker Spaniel. Little critters that shared my space included guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, hamsters, mice, tropical fish, and birds. (Oh, and one crayfish and hermit crab that my daughter brought home from school)

When not writing, reading, and researching dog-related topics, I love spending time with my 6 Shih Tzu dogs, husband, and family, as well as knitting and crocheting. She is also the voice behind Small Dog Place and Smart-Knit-Crocheting. Please visit my other two sites or send me a note.
