Patches is a Lhasa apso, and by virtue of his pedigree (the snub-nosed variety), along with chow chows, Persian cats and some others, he’s presumed more susceptible to health risk associated with travel stress; several airlines will not have him on board.

No Sedation when Flying Pets!
By Pet Relocation | September 3rd, 2007
We are constantly asked about the use of Sedation or Tranquilizers when flying our customers' pets. The answer is simply, NO! It is the worse thing you can do to your pet when flying them.
According to American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), air transport of sedated pets may be fatal. Over sedation is the most frequent cause of animal deaths during airline transport and accounts for more than half of all deaths when flying. Except in unusual circumstances, veterinarians should not dispense sedatives for animals that are to be transported.
