    I'm looking for a good company with a very liberal pet policy. I have two dogs, both over 80 lbs. Any companies that would be ok with this? They were raised in a truck and are very non destructive.

    Interstate Distributor allows 2 pets. Call and ask about weights of the dogs and if necessary, fudge a little.

    If they were my traveling companions, I'd call and ask, then lie if necessary and have no qualms about it.

    Teacup poodles.
    If they want to see the dogs, I'd borrow a couple of small dogs to show.

    My last company, I only had one dog when I started, a small one. Got these two while working there. Then found out I couldn't have more than one, and under 60 lbs. I hid them for almost a year. It's a lot of extra work, especially when going to the yard/shop. I'd really like to avoid that again ;)

    Make some calls; maybe something besides Interstate Distributor that fit your needs:
    Butler Transport
    Britton Transport
    Abilene Motor Express
    Craigslist may have something.
