Rules for Bringing Pets Inside a Victory Liner Bus
First, the rule for bringing in pets, such as dogs and cats, should follow the schedule of the current pet-friendly bus schedule. Dogs and cats that are small or medium are allowed, with weights ranging from one to 2.6 kilograms or 2 to 57 lbs.
Second, the pet must be wearing a diaper and inside a crate where there's no room for their heads to pop out. As for roosters, they need to be placed inside a cockbox or a bayong, and should have a valid permit from the Bureau of Animal Industry.
Lastly, pets pay a full price per pet cage or the seat occupied. According to the bus operator, two small-sized pets of the same breed can be placed in one medium-sized cage, which would only account for one paid seat.
