I am a senior citizen with a hearing disability, and I have a service dog. I know there are rules concerning animals traveling on airlines. Could/would you please tell me what they are, and does my service dog ride inside the plane with me? She has her vest and patches, which she will be wearing. She will also have her health certificate, and I DO NOT want to put her in a cage or in the cargo hold and expose her to diseases. I am planning a trip to Canada and need to make the reservations. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. –Patricia, Jefferson, Ore.... Back to Article
