Werner's Pet policy

If memory serves correct It is like a $400 deposit. You don't have to pay the deposit, but you are responsable for any damages done by your pet.

 

You should have no problems with the dog--if i remember correctly its a certain $$ fee per pound but not real sure--i know many had really big dogs!

 

Ya-you should have no problem takin em with you if thats what u choose. I know they have a pet deposit just dont remember what it was. I never took mine with me--cant see havin to take care of a Pitt on the road! LOL So--my kids take care of her at home. I know many had bigger dogs so no big issue there--Good luck to you and they are not that bad just stay out of log violations and you will be ok! Just be prepared when you go into terminals for service to be there a while! LOL

 

I know a driver for Werner, and he told me for a pet less than 35 pounds, it's a $500 deposit. If it weighs more than 35 pounds, it's 2x that, so $1000. I don't know if that was true or not, but you might want to ask the people in the orientation.

 

So they don't have a size limit for the pets? If I can take my Great Dane that would be a plus!!!

 

I am not sure if they have a size limit or not. If they don't, then that would be 2 companies that I know of (Werner, and Watkins & Shepard). I don't know about other companies that require a year or more of experience. There could be more. But I do know that the majority require them to be small dogs.

 

My wife keeps saying the same thing about my Choc Lab. He's also the best dog I've ever owned.
You know what she's right!!
