My best friend doesn't deserve to be considered cargo, but that's the only option I've got so far. And even that is out of my price range. I am here to ask for your help in helping me bring him to his new home on the East Coast.

The Options

Cargo Flight

Currently the most affordable option is going to be to fly him as cargo from California to New York. He'll be in the cargo hold of my plane, and he'll have to wait longer without anyone. In a crate the entire time. Also I'm afraid of something going wrong.

Costs:

• Flight: $475
• Crate: $50
• Hardware: $30

Total: $555

Drive Us Myself

This is totally doable, but I don't have a car so I'd have to rent one. Add the cost of gas, lodging, and food. I've also already paid for a flight.

Costs:

• Rental: $615
• Gas: $220
• Lodging: $150
• Losses for flight: $250

Approx Total: $1,235

Driving Service

The more humane option is to pay someone to drive him across the country. He'll be treated great, be with people and other dogs. He'll have an adventure.

Cost: $1800-$2000
