      What determines the cost of Bluetick Coonhound shipping

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

      Cost $$$

      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 shipping service provider 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 Bluetick Coonhound, 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 shipping service providers to accommodate small pets.

      rating
      Health clearance and travel equipment

      The first step to transporting your Bluetick Coonhound 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.

      Bluetick Coonhound: The Tenacious Companions

      Origins and Temperament

      Hailing from the United States, the Bluetick Coonhound boasts a storied heritage with a knack for tracking and hunting. Known for their determination and intelligence, these dogs are even-tempered yet spirited. A Bluetick's strong olfactory abilities may heighten its sense of unfamiliarity when traveling, necessitating a calm and reassuring environment.

      Size and Physical Needs

      Ranging from 45 to 80 pounds, the Bluetick Coonhound is a robust and agile breed. These dogs require consistent exercise to maintain their muscular physique. When traveling, adequate space and opportunity for activity are necessary to accommodate their physical needs and prevent restlessness.

      Common Health Considerations

      Bluetick Coonhounds are generally healthy but can be prone to conditions like hip dysplasia. Ensure you have valid health certificates and vaccination records for travel, and discuss with your vet any motion sickness or travel-related concerns to address preemptively.

      How to prepare your Bluetick Coonhound 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 Vetster – 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

      Have a comprehensive record of your Bluetick's vaccinations, as well as a health certificate if required, easily accessible. Keep these documents on hand during travel to meet any regulatory needs quickly.

      Identification and Tracking

      Ensure your pet wears a collar with up-to-date tags and consider a microchip and GPS tracker to monitor their whereabouts, offering additional peace of mind during transport.

      Comfort Items and Familiar Scents

      Pack a blanket or toy carrying the scent of home to soothe your Bluetick Coonhound. Familiar smells can significantly reduce stress levels during transit.

      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 Bluetick Coonhound

      Managing Anxiety and Stress

      Introduce your Bluetick to their travel crate before departure to foster a sense of security. Anxiety vests or prescribed calming solutions can also be beneficial in managing travel-induced stress.

      Exercise and Bathroom Breaks

      Establish a consistent schedule for stops to ensure your Bluetick Coonhound receives exercise and relief. Every 3-4 hours is typically suitable, but tailor the frequency to your dog’s specific needs.

      Temperature Control and Hydration

      Blueticks have a dense coat which can cause them to overheat. Maintain a cool environment and provide ample water to ensure hydration throughout your journey.
