Hi,

I'm going to be flying with my guide dog in January and wondered if you could all help me with something.

In Europe, some airlines require that your dog wears a harness. I don't mean their working harness, but a car harness. It plugs into the seat belt, so although the dog is on the floor it means they're also secure. If you know of a harness that is compliant with this please let me know.

Hi Holly, there are car dog harness that you can get. I think its usually around 40 to 50 pounds, but you might able to get it cheaper online. I saw it ones, working with a guidedog. It is a soft harness, that like you said, it works together with the seat belt. Not sure in uthe UK, but most major pet shop in Australia sells them. You might want to check it out on your local pet shop or where you get the dog food from.

Good luck
