What determines the cost of Tibetan Terrier shipping

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

Mode of transportation

Ground travel

Cost $$$

Time ⏱⏱⏱

Air 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.

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.

Pet size

Smaller pets are easier – and less expensive – to transport. If you’re flying your Tibetan Terrier, 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.

Health clearance and travel equipment

The first step to transporting your Tibetan Terrier 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.

Tibetan Terrier: The Loyal Companions

Origins and Temperament

Emerging from the monasteries of Tibet, the Tibetan Terrier was bred and nurtured by monks to be companions and lucky charms. These dogs are full of warmth, are smart, and are known for their surprisingly human-like affectionate nature. Their sensitivity and attachment to their owners mean that Tibetan Terriers might require special consideration when it comes to travel, ensuring they remain calm and reassured throughout the journey.

Size and Physical Needs

Typically ranging in size from 20 to 24 pounds, the Tibetan Terrier is a small to medium-sized breed that requires daily exercise to stay happy and healthy. Their distinct double coat, meant to protect them from harsh Tibetan climates, can lead to overheating, so a temperature-controlled environment during travel is essential. The right accommodations and frequent stops to stretch their legs are crucial for their wellbeing.

Common Health Considerations

Tibetan Terriers are generally healthy, but they can be prone to conditions like hip dysplasia, progressive retinal atrophy, and cataracts. It is essential to have updated health documentation ready when traveling, including vaccination and vet records. Preventative measures, such as a thorough pre-trip vet examination, should be taken to ensure they're travel-ready and to preclude potential health concerns.

How to prepare your Tibetan Terrier 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

Ensure you have an up-to-date and complete vaccination book or veterinary record for your Tibetan Terrier. These documents are crucial for transport and might be required for verification at various points during the trip.

Identification and Tracking

A collar with an ID tag featuring your contact information and a microchip registered with your current details are indispensable for the safety of your Tibetan Terrier. For added peace of mind, consider a GPS tracker that can attach to their collar.

Comfort Items and Familiar Scents

To help soothe your Tibetan Terrier during transport, pack a favorite toy, a blanket, or a piece of clothing with the owner's scent on it. Familiar smells can provide a great deal of comfort to a pet in unfamiliar surroundings.

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 Tibetan Terrier

Managing Anxiety and Stress

Reducing anxiety for a Tibetan Terrier may involve providing a well-ventilated crate with visibility, as well as familiar objects. Gentle music, anxiety vests, and even pheromone diffusers can help create a calming environment.

Exercise and Bathroom Breaks

Plan for regular breaks for exercise and bathroom needs. A good rule of thumb is a stop every two hours to allow your Tibetan Terrier to stretch and relieve itself, keeping the dog as comfortable as possible.

Temperature Control and Hydration

Make sure to transport your Tibetan Terrier in a climate-controlled vehicle and provide constant access to fresh, clean water. Sensitive to temperature changes, this breed will require monitoring to ensure they don't become too hot or cold.

Post Transportation Care for your Tibetan Terrier

Adjustment to New Surroundings

Allow your Tibetan Terrier to familiarize themselves with the new environment at their own pace. Comfort items from home can offer reassurance. Stay close and attentive to help them feel secure.

Monitoring Health Post-Travel

Keep a close eye on your pet's eating, drinking, and toilet habits post-travel. Any signs of distress or deviation from normal behavior should be discussed with a vet.

Continuing Care and Routine

Reinstate your Tibetan Terrier's routine as soon as possible after the move to help them adjust to their new home. Familiar schedules provide comfort and stability in the midst of change.
