Plan your visit
You’ll be in good company.
Many of our clients travel from across the country and around the world to train at one of Brandon’s ranches. If you’re considering making the trip with your dog, here are flight options, nearby stays and favorite restaurants to help you feel at home.
Traveling with your dog
Small dogs who fit comfortably in an airline-approved, soft-sided carrier can often fly in the cabin on commercial airlines. For medium and large dogs, several pet-friendly airlines offer options to travel alongside you.
Carrier limits and route requirements vary by airline.
