Traveling With Your Dog

1
As a dog owner I love my furry baby to the ends
of the world.
2
I go almost everywhere with her.
3
I would take her to work with me if it was
allowed.

However I do realize that when I take her with me
to the park, beach, etc, I need to get us to our
destination safely.
5
I must realize that no matter how much I love my
furry friend she too can be a distraction like
texting while driving if the proper safety
precautions arent followed.

There are certain things to pack for when you and
your four legged friend go somewhere.
7
These items include seat covers to keep fir from
getting everything, paper towels and stain
remover in case of an accident, food and water,
and potty bags just in case.

ride

Other tips for a pleasant trip with Fido include
treating any kind of car sickness.
10
This can include nausea which can be treated with
medicine from your vet, nervousness while driving
which the effect can be lessened by putting Fido
in the car without going anywhere, and providing
plenty of praise so that they know that you love
them and that they will survive this trip.

Another tip for making sure it is a pleasant ride
for everyone is too take bedding and toys for
man's best friend so that they dont get bored,
and can take a nap if they get tired.

with man's best friend is different ways to avoid
an accident.

Ways to protect Fido include placing them in a
crate during the trip.

The reasoning behind this is that if you need to
suddenly step on the breaks to avoid hitting
another vehicle the crate will keep your canine
from hitting the windshield or flying out of the
car.

is 85 degrees outside of the vehicle that can
quickly turn into 102 degrees inside the vehicle.

car on a cold day he or she can freeze.
