Well this thread has gone down the tubes. I specifically posted in the Qatar forum ( or thought I did) as the last time I had a new puppy from Spain it was on Qatar Air cargo. BTW, I am not in the US and I am not looking for a random adopt a dog, or I would just go to the local and rescue each and every dog. I took a look at Qatar Air policies and guidelines and as a status holder, I was thinking that maybe I could save a chunk of money by using them and my status. This was a specific Qatar air question and not an adopt a dog question and save the world question.
