The cost of shipping depends on various factors, but the two most significant ones are: the size of the crate which your dog travels in, and the airline company. Size of course depends on your dog’s age and the breed. For a small breed the age is less of a factor, but for a bigger breed the older the dog as it grows, the greater the cost. Airlines prices vary by large amounts. Much like the cost of your flight tickets would depend on the choice of airline; the most expensive can be twice as much as the cheapest. As a default we will always offer the most economical option that we consider safe to ship with. You have the option to upgrade to any airline of your choice
