[NAGDU] Air Travel Feeding Question

[alysha.jeans at gmail.com]

Hi David,
I don't restrict food and water the night before flying at all. For an early morning flight of a reasonable length like you describe, I would restrict water but not food that morning. I would probably put a little water in to moisten his food but nothing else. This depends a lot on your dog's park schedule though. Xylon generally poops first thing in the morning after eating and not again until we get home from work, so feeding him in the morning wouldn't risk an accident on a flight landing at 10 AM. Safe travels!

For those who travel by air, if you have an early morning flight, do you restrict food the night before and limit water?  How about food and water the following morning for a flight boarding at 6:30 a.m. and arriving at destination around 10 a.m.?

Thanks in advance for your advice.
