Recently, we shipped a 73 lb. bitch in a #500 crate to the West Coast. The cost was exactly $790.95. When told what the cost would be, the first words out of my mouth were, "You've got to be kidding me?" The airline rep seemed embarrassed. $790 dollars and 95 cents!!! Holy smokes, Batman!!! I'm still in shock!
