A French Bulldog's journey from Manila to Los Angeles
Covi is a French Bulldog — a snub-nosed breed that many airlines refuse to carry. His owners chose us specifically for our experience with brachycephalic dogs, and we flew him from Manila to Los Angeles with a layover in Narita.
“As I was battling anxiety for my Frenchie, Aries gave us a sense of security and guaranteed that our dog will be okay. Until we arrived at our destination, including our layover in Narita, Japan, PetTransPro constantly communicated with us.”
Arianne Marzan · Covi's owner
How we handled it
- 01
Snub-nosed breeds need veterinary clearance before an airline will accept them, so we scheduled Covi's kennel cough vaccination and medical clearance at a partner clinic in Pasig City.
- 02
Our team accompanied the family at the vet visit, explained every document they would carry, and met them at NAIA Terminal 3 on departure day.
- 03
We stayed in contact through Viber and WhatsApp from check-in, through the Narita layover, until Covi was released from the receiving kennel at LAX.
