COULD YOU TRAVEL ON BOARD WITH YOUR DOG?

These pets must have a series of characteristics in terms of their behavior (the pet must not be dangerous to other passengers, it must know how to behave in public, obey simple commands, respond to their call, etc.). These features are very important since, otherwise, they could be a potential danger to the safety of other passengers. For an animal to be recognized as an emotional support animal, it is necessary to obtain a certificate that certifies it. This certificate must be written and signed by a psychologist with the corresponding license number. At Equilibrium Psicólogos we process the certificate for you, if you meet a series of necessary requirements. American legislation says that these pets can travel free of charge with their owners on all public transportation (trains, planes, etc.).

However, it is important to highlight that each airline has its specific conditions such as the size or type of animal. In order to travel with your dog or cat, it is essential to go to a mental health professional so that he or she can assess the therapeutic need of the animal and write a certificate proving that it is an emotional support animal for the owner.
