January 25, 2019 Mackenzie Martin

Thinking about bringing your canine friend on a commercial airline anytime down the road? We’ve searched the airline’s service fees and safety records as they related to pets to give you the additional facts you need before you book that next trip.

Also worthy mention is definitely JetBlue. While they now charge more than Southwest ($100 each way), their Jetpaws program is specifically designed for flyers traveling with dogs on planes. The program includes a pet bag tag, a welcome e-mail with important details and their “Pettiquette” guidebook describing etiquette with regard to dog travel.

If you have a child who wants to get a pet, you need to listen to the opinion of psychologists from Western Washington University, Olin Eugene Myers, Jr. According to him, there are several factors that determine the interaction between children and animals.

He explained that the reaction of children to the animals depends on the animals’ initial response. For example, when a child becomes acquainted with a kitten that is very funny and lively that make them were familiar joke, the positive response has been implanted in that child.

When a child caring, kissing and hugging his/her favorite animal, the animal will also provide a response back with his/her movements. The animal will be very spoiled when it is around him/her. When a child plays with your pet, the pet would be happy to cavort. That is the expression of feeling that it shows to that child.

Furthermore, Myers explained that when a child has a positive impression and feels that he gets something from the pet, the child will treat his/her pet as a friend. That child will have a sense of caring and responsibility to keep the pet.
