Transportation of Pets

The Fort Campbell Passenger Travel located at 2702 Michigan Ave on post at the Soldier Support Center can assist with making airline reservations with shipment of pets overseas on Air Mobility Command Patriot Express flights only. There are fees associated with this transportation that are at the traveler’s expense. All other pet transportation are the traveler’s expense and responsibility to arrange. Contact Fort Campbell Passenger Travel at 270-412-6972 or 270-798-7151 for more information.

Pet travel is limited, at the traveler’s expense, and not guaranteed. There are no travel entitlements for pet transportation or pet preparation for travel. Pet (dog or cat only) travel reservations on AMC Patriot Express flights to certain overseas locations are limited and can be requested as a courtesy on a first-come, first-served basis. Pet owners are responsible for all pet transportation requirements such as documentation, immunization and country pet entry requirements and should personally confirm all pet travel arrangements. Only passengers with command sponsor status are authorized to transport pets in conjunction with their official travel.

Moving with your pet includes researching airline requirements and quarantine restriction laws in your new location. Many airlines have requirements for size, weight, breed, number of animals, kennel construction, documentation and seasonal limitations. Small pets (in cabin) and large pets (in cargo) may be transported in conjunction with official travel on military flights, but availability is limited and regulations are always changing. Many international locations have strict importation laws, including extended quarantines and restrictions on breeds or types of animals. Carefully research these rules as they could impact your moving schedule. You may also find some locations in the United States that have restrictions on certain animals and breeds. Contact the Fort Campbell Veterinary Clinic on post at 270-798-4844/3614 for assistance with vaccinations, microchipping, health certificates and preparations for PCS.

Fort Campbell Dog Kennels

Indoor climate-controlled kennels are available to accommodate dogs of all sizes. Reservations are required. We start taking reservations 30 days out from the day your dog will begin boarding. Reservations can be made in person or via email by sending vaccine records to the following address outdoorrec42223@gmail.com. Once all vaccines have been verified and meet boarding requirements, you can make your reservation. The price of a 2-night stay ($40) will be required at the time of reservation as a deposit; the remaining amount must be paid at drop off. If a reservation is cancelled for any reason, you will forfeit your deposit. Staff will provide you with a copy of your receipt either in person or email once the reservation is made. Please review it as it will provide information regarding your remaining balance, drop off and pick up times, as well as how to pack their food. Our kennel sizes vary from x-small, small, medium, large, x-large to xx-large. We require all dog food to be pre-packaged, per meal for each dog for the entirety of their stay. Food needs to be brought in a plastic container with your name and contact information.
