Kathy _www.Victory_ (http:www.Victory) germanshepherds.com Kathy, you are so right!!!! Those Airports cash registers will be ringing!! LOL!!! The thing I most concerned about are flying the dogs...I would imagine they will be requiring a complete Crate inspection, etc. which prolongs the process, and requires dogs being at the airports earlier than ever, plus if there is an 'alert' for any reason, that plane could sit on the tarmack with dogs on board waiting for a long time for all to be declared safe to take off, or land, if there is anything suspicious ... Maybe it's time to do what lots of us did in the 'Olden Times' , in spite of Gas prices, and just got together and made up some 'caravans ' to drive our dogs to the Big Shows, like Nationals, Futurities, etc. that were out of our States... It was really a lot of fun too... No kidding!! We made a cross-country trip once for a National, from Southern California to Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.. I believe we had about 5 of us all caravaning together.. because none of us wanted to fly 'Our Kids'...
