For those with your pet, a list of tips on how to travel safely with a dog may be helpful.

Here are some tips to facilitate the holiday season if you want to travel with a dog.

The measurements depend on the airline, the destination and the dog size.

But overall you can rely on these details to choose one for a dog "documented" or that shares space with the suitcases.

The total weight is a sum of the weight of your furry and the carrier together.

Must be waterproof, well ventilated on all four sides and free of objects that could hurt your pet
