Pupppy on holiday

Hello I was wondering when could my puppy first come with me to Essex I live in Nottingham I would be going on the coach and staying with my Auntie ATM shes 6 weeks old and its coming up to the Holidays so I was wondering weatherI would be able to take her on a 2 1/2 hour coach journey then on a 1 1/2 journey what age would I be able to do this? I'd be willing to carry her can dogs on on underground? And coaches? Thanks x

They can go on the Underground, no problem, the coach me thinks is a different matter, it is down to the personal driver, I work for the Railways and some of the coaches we use, some of the drivers will and some point blank refuse, not much help really im afraid, unless there is some way of pre asking he driver...

Thanks shed be like 8 weeks could they really turn her down? HeHe I'll get her to go all cute on there asses but thanks I'll investigate do you know about normal trains?

I know everything about normal trains, she is welcome on any normal train, free of charge, some guards may moan about her being on the seats, but that's only one or two jobs worth's, but no she will be fine on trains, maybe the way to go, if you book a ticket well in advance you can get some really good deals, hope this helps.....

Thanks

Take a sick bag or if possible feed her at her destination, just to prevent her being travel sick.

What about the nearly 3 hour train journey for a 9 week old puppy?

I'd take something she can sleep in, as well as puppy pads in case she needs to go to the toilet. She'l be fine on the train, and she should be ok on the coach cos dogs are allowed to travel on public transport. Especially as she is so small, you'll be carrying her so she won't be any trouble.

The only problem is that Coaches are not actually Public Transport........

Personally its not something I would do or advise. She hasn't had her full jabs yet and it will be very stressfull for a 9 week puppy. I think travel like that should wait till she is older. Only my opinion though Xx

if the travel companys are ok with it, and you dont have a car sick dog i would personally not see a problem with it.

& may i add, what a very cute puppy you have!!!!

I know shes beautiful looks very much like yours
