How to Select the Proper Size Sherpa BagThe measurements are very important for your pet's safe, comfortable travel. Length: from the nape of the neck (where the collar falls) to base of the tail. Height: from the floor to the shoulder. Weight: Sherpa, the company's namesake lhasa apso, travels in the medium size bag. She is 16" long from the nape of her neck to the base of her tail, 10" high at the shoulder. She weighs 15 lbs. Your Pet's SizeUp to 13" long x 8" high & 6 lbs.: Small Sherpa BagUp to 16" long x 10" high & 16 lbs.: Medium Sherpa BagUp to 18" long x 11" high & 22 lbs.: Large Sherpa Bag Travel Tips for Sherpa Bags Train and familiarize your pet with The Sherpa Bag: Before your trip, leave the bag open with a favorite toy or treat inside. Allow your pet to wander in and out of the bag, praising and rewarding it for doing so. Carry your pet around in the bag so it becomes accustomed to its new environment and will associate the bag with a pleasant experience. The more pleasant and relaxed it becomes with the bag at home, the less anxiety you both will have when traveling. The bag will become your pet's personal den. Patience is the key. Never leave your pet alone in a zipped-up bag. Plan Ahead: When you make your airline reservation, be sure to make one for your pet--at the same time. Do this as early as possible. Only a limited number of pets can be transported on each flight, and this number varies according to airline and aircraft type. Airlines charge a small fee for pets that travel in the cabin. Airline Restrictions: Ask when making your reservations if there are special policies regarding pets in-cabin. Rules, regulations, and charges vary from airline to airline, so always check first. Dimensions of pet carriers quoted are for hard carriers and do not apply to Sherpa Bags, which are soft-sided and flexible. What is important is the size of your animal. The pet must be able to fit comfortably under the seat in front of you, and have room to stand up and turn around in the bag. (Don't you wish you could do that in your airline seat?) Absorbent Liners: Airlines insist on them. Sherpa Bags have liners, or you can use a towel. Take extra towels if your pet gets motion sickness, and disposable pads would be helpful. Always keep a clean liner in The Sherpa Bag. Easily washed, liners make the trip more comfortable. Health Certificate: There is a zippered pocket on The Sherpa Bag designed to hold a recent (within seven to ten days) health certificate from your veterinarian. The statement must include current inoculations. It is essential that you have this certificate when flying and for entering some states in an automobile. Provisions: You can carry an accessory pouch attached to the Sherpa Bag. The pouch can contain your pet's current favorite toy, grooming supplies, plastic bags, as well as a leak-proof water bottle and a small amount of dry food and treats. The water and food will be needed after your pet gets off the airplane, and the supplies will be handy when traveling by auto. You may prefer to carry a Sherpa Organizer for the same purpose. Feeding: Feed your pet lightly when traveling. To prevent airsickness, no food should be offered within six hours of departure, and no water withi
