Mahalo for all your advice, and I think, in light of all the information, we'll leave the pooch with a friend for our month-long visit. I did check the DOT website, and also the NYTimes article....seems that out of the 122 dogs that died (love the "been reunited with their heavenly master"....) half were snub-nosed dogs. It also sounds like flying a dog into Kona-side might be a better choice, but you're right - why risk this for a 1-month visit?!? I'll miss the monkey-man, but better safe than sorry......
In response to putting a dog (or a cat) under the seat in the plane, I think the airlines are starting to ban that practice, too, because of people's allergies, which makes sense.
Again, thanks for your responses!
Wherever you go, there you are.
