Your dog belongs in the cabin with you.
No more cargo. No more carriers. No more wondering if they're okay down there. Your dog is family, and now there's a legal, documented way to keep them by your side at 30,000 feet.
Cargo is not an option.
Every year, dogs are injured, lost, or worse in airline cargo holds. The stress alone can be devastating. You shouldn't have to choose between traveling and keeping your family together.
Dogs experience extreme stress, anxiety, and fear in pressurized, dark cargo holds
Temperature fluctuations in cargo can reach dangerous extremes
Carriers under seats are cramped, uncomfortable, and not possible for larger dogs
The walls are gone. There is another way. ✨
Watch Cotufa fly. 🐾
This is what in-cabin international travel really looks like, from check-in to touchdown.
Written from the window seat. ✈️
Everything we teach comes from doing it, again and again, on real flights to real places, with our own dog asleep at our feet.
Cotufa has crossed oceans and time zones, ridden long-haul flights, padded through European old towns, navigated taxis in Latin America, and handled the strict desks of Asia and the Middle East. Always in the cabin. Never in cargo.
Along the way, we learned every form, every deadline, and every quiet detail that makes travel day calm instead of chaotic. We made the mistakes so you can skip them.

The documented, legal path. Not a loophole.
We connect you with licensed medical professionals and certified trainers to obtain legitimate, federally recognized service animal documentation.
ADA Compliance
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, service animals have the legal right to accompany their handler in public spaces, including airline cabins. Your documentation is built to meet these federal standards.
ADI Trainer Certification
Your dog works with trainers who hold credentials aligned with Assistance Dogs International (ADI) standards. This ensures your service animal meets the behavioral benchmarks airlines expect to see.
DOT Compliance Forms
The Department of Transportation requires specific attestation forms covering behavior, health, and training. We prepare every form, mapped to your exact itinerary and airline, so nothing is missed at the desk.
