You have decided to take the pet all along with on your vacation. It is a lot of fun, and you will not need to worry of leaving the member of family behind in the unfamiliar kennel. With a few extra planning or forethought, you will have the most enjoyable and safe tour with the pet.

Taking the Road Trip

Suppose you are driving very long with your pet, then you will have to find the safe and comfortable way for the pet to travel. Also, you can place the pet in the carrier or secure this in your car. On the other hand, you may purchase the seatbelt-like the harness for pet that can allow them to stay out of carrier but safely restrained. This is not very safe to allow the pet to roam very freely in a car. He will be hurt very seriously in an event of minor accident, or he is likely to escape or get lost whenever you make the stops.

Never leave the pet alone in a car, particularly in the hot weather. Heat will fast become the life-threatening. Suppose your pet gets carsick very easily, you have to ask the veterinarian for the motion-sickness drug before your trip starts.

Carry your pet’s food with you, to feed your pet just small amounts of the food at time. Suppose your tour is very short, you require the pet wait or eat whenever you arrive and avoid carsickness. You must carry some of the pet’s water all along, and purchase the bottled water. The local tap water might have different minerals and sulphur that may upset the pet’s stomach.
