Dog travel

Dog travel. Keep your dog safe whether you’re driving, flying or moving cross country.

Driving: Once you’ve mapped out the route for your dog-friendly trip, you need to make sure your dog is ready for the car ride. Nothing would spoil the fun more than a nervous traveler.

Overcome motion sickness: Nervous, hyperactive dogs are more likely to suffer from motion sickness as are puppies whose inner ears have not yet fully developed.

Fly safely: Dog plane safety tips include taking a direct flight, making sure your dog has fresh water and using an approved crate that allows good air circulation.

Move with your dog: Plan, use some expert advice and moving to a new city can be as easy as a quick stroll around the dog park.
