My dog Charlotte is going to be my Emotinal Support Dog for our first time. She is 50%beagle37Boston Terr and 13% standard bull dog. I am so afraid for her. I just cannot put her in the cargo even on my meds i will have an anxiety attack knowing she is in that compartment with luggage. I need her with me . Any suggestions getting her ready . She is not a trained dog she does jump but will sit when asked does not bit and is kind. She loves everyone. I am so stressed. We leave on sept 22 .

Hi and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It sounds like Charlotte will be flying with you in the upcoming months. I would advise that you contact the airlines that you are flying with. Seeing that Charlotte is a service dog, you should be able to work out a plan for her to fly in the cabin with you. I understand your stress and anxiety over this but I'm sure that you can resolve this by contacting your airlines and discussing this with them. I hope you and Charlotte are able to fly together and that you have a safe trip.
