    The Feliway version for dogs is DAP, or recently renamed to Adaptil. You can buy it as a diffuser, a spray or an impregnated collar - the latter might be best if it's allowed. I would test it out beforehand though, I have the spray and it actually makes my dog more anxious!
    Supplement wise there is something like Zylkene, which you could start a week or two beforehand and continue for a few weeks afterwards to help with the change, or there's Calmex which is intended for a more immediate effect (given as a once-off, 30-60 minutes before needed). Rescue Remedy is safe to give to dogs too, and there's also valerian and the like that can be used.

    Know nothing about flying with dogs! However we have a rescue dog who sucks her blanky like yours! She walks around the house/garden with it has a sucking sessions then falls asleep!! a bit like a child though she has several blankies but has her favourite one which she has to lick and drool over if i wash it!! good luck with the move!

    My point is that if Flopsy goes missing in the Uk - she may end up as a tasty snack for Mr and Mrs Fox and their cubs.

    If Fido goes missing in Korea - He may end up as a tasty meal for Mr and Mrs Woo and their kids........

    Awwww, nice to know Jims isn't the only crazy blanky lover out there - his is always really soggy!

    Thanks for the info Krlyr, that's really helpful.

    And yes, he is chipped.

    Too right. Make sure your dog can NEVER get out of the garden when you move.
