The breeder where I got Chip from resides about 7 hours from our home. We drove to the location and got a chance to see her home, the puppy area and see Chip's mom and Dad, etc. By the way, I was very impressed with the cleanliness, etc. But I also had to travel back home with this pup. As he had never traveled before, the hardest thing to overcome was where Chip would potty. He had a crate and we stopped several times. However, he would not go on the grass or in his crate. I sat in the back with him and let him wander around some to get exercise. The solution for us was to line the rear window area with puppy pads and he eventually used that area. That is not a good solution for everyone, especially if you are driving and the puppy has to stay kenneled but it worked for us and was better then him traveling via air or whatever to our home. He did eat and drink fine during the trip home but we stopped many times. We were also very careful where we stopped to let him wander a little in the grass. He had never been on grass before so that created another problem.
