Ways to store/carry mounts
I'm going to be playing a halfling witch with a riding dog mount (medium size animal). I'd like to take him into dungeons and while size is not a problem, there are definite obstacles that could be an issue such as ladders or climbing walls.
I'm trying to find ways that if necessary i could either shrink him down to be carried, store him in extra dimensional space etc. I know i could cast fly but that seems a waste of a spell when it will often just be a quick obstacle.
I know there is reduce animal but its the same level of spell as fly and so would still be an expensive wand.
There is the onxy dog wonderous figurine but it's very expensive and has 1/week usage limit which makes it something you pull out for special occasions, not as a general purpose mount.
Can anyone think of some options for helping to get my dog around dungeons?

Well, going up and down is a matter of a rope and appropriate harness if you're not in a hurry due to running from/after something or being in combat.
Assuming you've got an ally with an apporpriate strength score who is willing to lend a hand.

Yeah this is the fallback plan, i was just hoping for something usefull when speed is an issue or it's a particularly high climb.
The "carry companion" spell, and small bag of holding are two options i've been given in another thread that would work

What comes immediately to mind for me is
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic-items/...aled-companion
However, the item says it only works on class feature mounts, companions, etc. Maybe point it out to your DM and ask if you can buy one that will work for your mount?

It looks like a good idea and i think the GM might be open to letting me have one. As far as the "artifact" tag, it's a "metagame artifact" without a price. I don't know if it's official or third party but the metagame artifacts page says they're basically in-game tools for the GM to use to explain boring phenomena that gets in the way of the story like "where did bobs character go when he didn't show up to the game" and why the partys mounts were suddenly at the exit to the dungeon when they left them at the entrance on the other side of the mountain.

As a small witch i can't make use of hosteling armor unfortunately although that would be good for a paladin etc. I can't spare the feat for spirit's gift, but the whistle of calling and carry companion spell both look useful.
