He did fine and has no known fear issues from the situation. I also had my Chihuahua puppy flown from Mississippi to Virginia and she did fine. As soon as I picked her up from the airport, I took her out of her crate and cuddled her in a blanket all the way home (my husband drove). She was a little scared but I think she would have been scared just from leaving her litter mates, ect. She really bonded with me on the ride home, I think because "I saved her from the scary situation". She doesn't have any fear issues from the flight as far as I know. I think she pretty much forgot all about it the next day! Ask the breeder to put a little stuffed animal in her crate with her so she can cuddle up to it. If you can, get someone to drive you to the airport to pick your puppy up so you can get her out of the crate and hold her on the way home. I think it really helps them to know there is someone to love them and keep them warm and safe. Bring a little, soft baby blanket with you and wrap her in it. When you get home with her, just keep it quiet and calm and let her get to know her surroundings. She should be fine! Congrats on your new puppy!

My sister thinks flying is bad and will cause lifetime fear issues. Michele has assured me that she has flown man y dogs and I know some of you have because I have followed the stories but could you send me some reassurance? My sister says they fly in the belly of the plane where it's horribly loud and this girl she works with said she has known dogs that are messed up for life. I just would like more opinions. I'm trying to calm down as it gets closer to the day but having never received a dog like this, it's not working. I've always drove to get my doggies. If it wasn't so far, I would drive to get Faith but its just too far and gas is high again too.
