A case study of MOJO (Boston Terrier) immigrating to the U.S. from Japan with her pet (by O.A.)

From warm Japan to snowy America. The long flight across the ocean is a big project for both the pet owner and the dog, which is a member of the family, and is very anxiety-provoking. This time, we would like to introduce a case study of a client, O.A., who moved from Japan to the U.S. with his Boston Terrier, MOJO. We will introduce the entire process from the long flight to the winter arrival in the U.S., taking into consideration the unique characteristics of short-breed dogs.

Comments from PetAir

Thank you very much for choosing PetAir for your precious family member, MOJO. We are so glad that we were able to witness MOJO's new life and are relieved that we were able to be a part of it.

Short-headed breeds such as Boston Terriers are susceptible to physical stress from changes in air conditioning and air pressure on long-distance flights, so we carefully discussed the combination of flight, transit point, and time spent at the airport with the family before departure to ensure that MOJO would have a safe and comfortable stay.

Key Considerations for Transporting Pets to the United States

What we especially valued in this transport was,Consideration for the breathing of MOJO, a short-bodied dog.And,Creating an environment that minimizes stress even on long-haul flightsThe flight from Japan to the U.S. was a long trip of more than 10 hours. Since the trip from Japan to the U.S. takes more than 10 hours, the temperature and humidity of the cabin environment and how to design the quiet time in the crate will greatly affect the success or failure of the trip. We spoke with the family many times before departure about the size and ventilation of the crate, the location of the water bottle, and even how to bring in a blanket with the family's scent on it so that MOJO would feel safe.

In addition, we were conscious of the fact that the departure and arrival pointsConsideration for Climate DifferencesIt is. When moving from warm Japan to the U.S. in the snowy winter, keeping MOJO warm is a major theme. We asked the family to bring their familiar blankets and favorite beds, and together we discussed how to assemble the luggage so that MOJO would be wrapped in his usual smell and feel from the moment he arrived in the U.S. The U.S. side's quarantine response was a result of our advance scheduling and documentation work with the family, which led to a smooth passage with "only a few questions" at the destination.

I was able to arrive safely in the United States,Dear O.A.We would like to express our sincere appreciation to the family of MOJO for their long and systematic preparations, and for their careful management of MOJO's physical condition and acclimation to the new environment. Thank you very much.

It would be most encouraging for us to hear that MOJO is living peacefully there, so we would be happy if you could send us photos and updates as much as you are comfortable with.
