What determines the cost of Pomeranian shipping

Here's what you need to know about safely transporting your Pomeranian.

Mode of transportation

Time ⏱⏱

ratingAir travel

Cost $$$

Time ⏱⏱⏱

Ground and air travel have different associated costs. Flying is typically the fastest option, but also the most expensive and taxing on your pet.

rating
Travel distance

The further you need to transport your pet, the more it'll cost. If you're using ground transportation, you'll have to factor in fuel costs, lodging, meals on the road and wear-and-tear on your vehicle. These costs are applicable whether you drive the pet yourself or you hire a transporter through CitizenShipper. Airlines charge more for longer plane rides as well. This is due to the cost of fuel and the need compensate pilots and flight attendants.

rating
Pet size

Smaller pets are easier – and less expensive – to transport. If you’re flying your Pomeranian, they’ll need to travel in the cargo hold if they’re over 20 pounds. You’ll also need to buy a USDA-approved crate, which can cost around $200. With ground transport, it’s easier for drivers to accommodate small pets.

rating
Health clearance and travel equipment

The first step to transporting your Pomeranian is ensuring they’re healthy enough to travel. Most species require a vet-issued health certificate to cross state lines. This will cost $50 to $300. You’ll likely need to purchase some equipment too – such as a crate and travel supplies.

Pomeranian: The Intelligent Companions

Origins and Temperament

The Pomeranian, with its lineage tracing back to the large sled-pulling dogs of the Arctic, has evolved into an iconic toy breed full of vigor and intelligence. Throughout history, this breed has charmed royals and commoners alike with its vivacious personality and teddy bear-like appearance. Pomeranians are known for their extroverted nature, alertness, and sometimes strong-willed demeanor. These traits, coupled with their petite size, necessitate travel accommodations that ensure they feel secure and at ease, as stress and changes in environment can affect them.

Size and Physical Needs

Typically weighing between 3 to 7 pounds, Pomeranians are part of the toy group and are notably small in stature. However, their mighty spirit means they require daily exercise to stay happy and healthy. While traveling, their diminutive size requires proper restraint in a well-ventilated carrier that provides comfort and room to move without feeling too isolated from their owner or handler. With their fluffy double coats, Pomeranians can quickly overheat, so climate control is imperative during transport.

Common Health Considerations

Pomeranians can be predisposed to certain health conditions, including dental issues and tracheal collapse. It is essential that health documentation - especially recent veterinary check-ups and records of any chronic conditions - accompany them during travel. A vet's clearance for travel is often recommended to ensure they are fit for the journey and that any potential emergencies can be anticipated and managed.

How to prepare your Pomeranian for transport

At CitizenShipper, we pride ourselves on making pet transportation a breeze. However, there are things you can do ahead of time to make your best friend’s trip safer and more comfortable.

Talk to your veterinarian

Your pet’s safety is number one – that’s why checking in with your vet before finalizing any travel plans is essential.

Can’t make it to the vet’s office in time? Conveniently video chat with a qualified veterinarian at FirstVet – one of our amazing partners.

Here are the questions you’ll want to ask your vet:

  • Is my pet healthy enough for transport?
  • Is my pet up to date on their vaccines?
  • Is my pet’s microchip still in place and scannable?

Health and Vaccination Records

Before transportation, ensure that you have up-to-date health and vaccination records for your Pomeranian. These documents are not only often required for interstate travel but are critical for maintaining your pet's health care continuity and quick medical intervention if necessary.

Identification and Tracking

Proper identification, including a securely fastened collar with tags and an updated microchip, is invaluable for tracking your Pomeranian in case of unexpected separation. For added peace of mind, consider a GPS tracker attachment, which can monitor your pet's location in real-time.

Comfort Items and Familiar Scents

Packing items from home can greatly reduce travel anxiety for your Pomeranian. A favored blanket, toy, or article of clothing bearing your scent can be immensely comforting to them during transportation, providing a sense of security and familiarity.

Essential pet transport travel supplies include:

  • Food, bowls and fresh water
  • Collars and leashes
  • Waste bags
  • Medication
  • First-aid supplies
  • Any travel documents
  • A secure, USDA-approved travel crate

Traveling to a new place is exciting but stressful for your pet. Pack their favorite toys, a bed or a comfy blanket to help them enjoy their journey. Familiar items remind them of home and will soothe their anxiety.

Tailored Travel Tips for Pomeranian

Managing Anxiety and Stress

To alleviate potential travel-induced stress, familiarize your Pomeranian with their travel crate well in advance. Introducing routine anxiety-reducing practices such as pheromone sprays, anxiety vests, or calming chews before and during travel can greatly increase their comfort levels.

Exercise and Bathroom Breaks

Regular exercise and frequent bathroom breaks are crucial for Pomeranian comfort and well-being. Plan for stops every 1-2 hours to allow your pet the opportunity to stretch and relieve themselves, contributing to a more pleasant travel experience.

Temperature Control and Hydration

Maintain a comfortable and steady temperature inside the vehicle since Pomeranians can overheat or become chilled easily. Ensure your pet has access to clean water at all times to stay well-hydrated throughout the journey.

Post Transportation Care for your Pomeranian

Adjustment to New Surroundings

To ease their adjustment, introduce your Pomeranian to their new surroundings gradually. Familiar items from their previous environment will help them feel secure. Patience and providing a quiet space for retreat can facilitate a smoother transition.

Monitoring Health Post-Travel

Keep a watchful eye on your Pomeranian’s behavior and physical condition following travel. Any signs of distress or illness should prompt a visit to your veterinarian to ensure your pet's health is not at risk.

Continuing Care and Routine

Quickly re-establishing a regular feeding, exercise, and sleep routine will help your Pomeranian acclimate to their new environment. Consistency is key to providing them with a sense of security and stability in their new home.
