The best dog carriers for airplanes are airline-approved carriers made to fit under the seat in front of you. A soft-sided carrier may be easier to handle, comfier for your pup, and easier to fit under the airline seat. For larger dogs, look for airline-approved crates with hard sides and secure latches that are designed to travel in the designated cargo area.
The best carriers for small dog breeds are secure, well-ventilated carriers with several points of entry. Look for carriers with sturdy handles that make carrying and maneuvering your small pup convenient and easy. A top-entry option can make putting your dog in and petting him easier, too. Many people prefer soft-sided small dog carriers for their lightweight, flexible design and added comfort. However, hard-sided carriers may be more protective and better for safety while in transit. Backpack-style dog carriers are another great option for taking your dog around on walks or other local outings.
