Dog travel: your pet goes first class

March 26th, 2009    Subscribe To Our Feed

Travel isn’t fun for dogs. They’re stuck in the cargo hold with the rest of the baggage, terrified and often traumatized.

Here’s a great new way for your dog to travel. Let’s hope it becomes insanely popular and (pardon the pun) takes off.

Pet Airways: Forget Cargo, Your Pet Needs To Fly First Class reports:

“Enter Pet Airways, a new startup launching next month that flies pets and only pets: ‘With Pet Airways your pet will be safe and comfortable, flying in the main cabin, not in cargo. From check-in at our Pet Lounge, and throughout the flight, our Pet Attendants will be caring and catering to all your pet’s needs. You can even monitor how your pet is doing.’ Fees start at $150. Sadly, only your pet can fly, not you (they won’t even put you in the cargo area of the plane).”

Hearing dogs for deaf children

March 17th, 2009    Subscribe To Our Feed

Here’s a lovely story about “hearing” dogs which are helping deaf children.

How ‘hearing’ dogs help deaf children get more out of life
| Mail Online
reports:

“‘Many deaf children sleep very poorly - when they take their hearing aids out at night, they feel cut off from the world. The children on this scheme are sleeping better because they feel safer with their dog in their bedroom. This means they’re less tired and their behaviour is much improved.

‘Everyone taking part is reporting back that their children are altogether more confident and happier. It’s wonderful news.’ “
