It's usually not as easy as you think it would be. Bringing your best
non-human friend on the road with you seems simple enough, right? Not
always so. Here are a few tips on how to make travel with your pet
easier.
Healthy Start: The last thing you need on the road is a sick pet. Make sure your pet is all set on vaccinations and has the proper certificates if you intend to cross any international/province/state borders.
Frequent Pit Stops: You pet can get stir crazy just like you!
Stop at any designated waiting area or service stop and take it on a
little walk. This may increase your travel time, but it is well worth
it! Breaks like these also serve as a perfect time to hydrate.
Proper Restraint: Whether your pet is calm and obedient in the
car it is always important to make sure they are safe. No need to roll
the windows down for fresh air, you don't want any debris hitting them
in the face. A favorite blanket or pet bed is perfect for a long road
trip. Creating a normalcy and routine for car rides helps your pet stay
calm.
There are lots of other ways to make you and your pet calm during a car
ride lasting anywhere between 5 minutes and 8 hours. Thank you!
