I would start with the words 

Traveling with a pet is a own world. 
Depending on the Company that operate a Train there are different Rules. The Standard rule small pets carried in a normal sized transport box are recognised as “luggage” and most of the times free of charge. 

For bigger pets it´s start to be complicated. From a own Dog ticket for the Route (price of Child but issued as DOG Ticket) up to a Daypass for the whole Country (eg. Switzerland) you have so many ways and rules. 

Because of that i recommend to plan your Route(My preference is the Website of Bahn.de or their App DB Navigator) and have a look on the train details and see which company operate the train. If you found out witch company it is check on their own website the rules regarding pets.
