Specialized Certification for BOAS (Snub-Nosed) Breeds
Our team holds BOAS Certification through IPATA’s Brachycephalic Certification Program, gaining specialized training to safely manage pets with shorter facial structures. As a result, this includes breeds such as Bulldogs, Pugs, Boxers, Boston Terriers, Persian, and Himalayan cats.
Brachycephalic (snub-nosed) pets face higher risks during air travel due to narrower airways and increased sensitivity to heat and stress. The BOAS Certification ensures our team applies enhanced safety measures at every stage, from planning and crate choice to temperature control and monitoring.
The program also helps us identify which pets are fit to fly through proper veterinary screening and handling. In addition, every certified BOAS shipper trains to spot respiratory issues and collaborates with veterinarians on Fit-to-Fly Assessments to ensure your pet’s health and comfort come first.
