OK, i didnt mean putting her in a box, taping it up and putting it in a mailbox.
Ive seen many websites that sell dogs and ship them to whoever purchases them. How do i ship my dog back home??

I recently was trying to figure out how to get my Boston Terrier to Colorado with me. I found out the following:
1. If they are small enough (dimesions vary for each commercial airline) you can buy a roundtrip ticket and fly with them in the cabin.
2. If they are too big to go in the cabin (which most dogs over 10 lbs are) they can go underneath the plane in the stowage. You do NOT have to be on the plane, you can have someone drop them at the airport and you can pick them up. The stoawge IS heated....otherwise your pet would freeze to death. I verified this with the airlines. You should actually transport the pet in the winter, because while they are heated the stowage is NOT air conditioned. Some airlines (most actually) do NOT transport pets in the summer because they don't have AC.
3. There are also websites that transport your pet for you. If you google "pet transport" you will find many services that do this.
I would recommend consulting your vet firsts though prior to any of these options. They might recomend a light seditive so your pet is not frightened during a flight.
There are many options to get your pet safely to your new home, you just need to figure out which is best for you. Do not be scared though to use a commercial airplane, they are under strict guidelines and people use them to transport pets all the time. If you can find a direct flight, without connections though I would spend the extra money and go with this route.

Should you do it the correct manner it's not necessarily mean and cruel. It would not be sent in a package! They make specific preparations. They do it always. The place do you consider pet retailers get their rats?? I labored at a pet store and we bought small animals despatched to us all the time. Not to point out FISH even! So if achieved the proper means it's flawlessly dependable. Nonetheless, they are obviously correct in pronouncing that the last factor we'd like are extra rats being bred. They're so overpopulated as it's, that each person could be a lot better adopting one. As excited as you could be to see your adored rat's offspring you will have to rather feel in regards to the huge picture. Also, god forbid if there was once any type of complication with the pregnancy and something occurred to your rat you'll consider horrible.

Baby chicks are routinely sent through the mail.
I doubt they would take a dog.
Go to the post office and ask.

You can ship pets via aircraft. However, they will travel in stowage, which is NOT heated.
