Traveling with Your Dog
The Basics for a Happy Trip
 Make travel safe for your puppy
|
If you want to make your dog a good traveling companion, make sure he's in good health and that he enjoys traveling with you as much as you enjoy having his company. To ensure that your dog enjoys traveling by car, it's best to start him on short trips first maybe a short trip each day, gradually extending the amount of time in the car. If your dog likes to hit the road, here are a few travel basics: Before You Go
Be sure vaccinations are up-to-date before you go.
Carry health and rabies certificates with you; they're needed if you fly or cross international borders.
Bring heartworm and/or any other medications your dog needs.
Bring along your dog's usual diet in case it's unavailable at your destination.
Bring water and feeding bowls, necessary grooming equipment, and a leash.
Make certain your dog has tags, including your area code with the phone number.
Bring along a color photo of your dog in case he becomes lost.
