Additional Info/situation: I have checked with my vet and they have given us the okay to fly this teeny cargo. We do not want to risk ground transport due to their fragile young age and the multitude of conditions they could contract during transport. We have an offer of help from Roseburg, Oregon to Eugene, Oregon.

I would be happy to fly them from Roseburg to Eugene when the weather improves again.

Thank you Douglas I will Keep your information.

Question: Do you think the puppies are too young to fly at 3 weeks? They are pretty teeny. Another pilot suggested it would not be good for them at this young age??? Any thoughts?

The puppies I have flown so far have all gone to sleep at or before takeoff, I don't think it would be a problem, but might ask a vet. The owner of McKenzie Animal is a pilot 541-747-3859 Marty DeWees.

I could fly south as far as Redding and get this little family to Roseburg to meet Douglas for the Eugene leg. Like Douglas, I'll need fair weather, and I am tied up through the Memorial Day Weekend (have to work).

These babies are still in need! So far we have From Redding to Roseburg and From Roseburg to Eugene covered. Is there anybody who could help in getting them from the LA area to Redding??

They are now 5 weeks old and all are still in good health.
