Flying With Dogs Dog Travel Forum

I will be relocating from Vegas to Madison, WI soon. I have two dogs - one that is 8 lbs that can travel with me and one that is 55 lbs. I have a few concerns - there aren't any direct flights and for the larger dog this is a concern traveling as "cargo". Even flying into Milwaukee is not an option that I can see with the arrives that fly from Vegas to MKE.

Also, because the temps will be high in the summer I guess there is a chance that they may not be able to fly. I'm not certain.

Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions for us? Besides driving
