Travel with your dog - short Guide

Travel with your dog.

We are all confronted with this dilemma: take us the dog with us on holiday - it aboard or send to stay with parents? Most of the time, we like to take our friend preferred with us, but get the practical aspects of the way. It is a shame, since dogs as holidays too. Read our quick guide on how to enjoy a free stay of constraint for the whole family - dogs too!

Modes of transport.

Air

Air transport of dogs must be made only when absolutely necessary - dogs are transported as cargo, there is no human contact during the flight and its stress for pets and owners. Its also very expensive. Some airlines will allow small domestic animals must be transported in the cabin, if they are transported in a carrier that fits under the seat. It is better than the dock, because humans are at hand, but certainly not ideal. Avoid flights if possible.

Car

The best way to travel with your pet. Movement of the car allows the pet should be transported close to those they love, enables frequent stops for comfort, treats breaks & stretch of members. The family car is likely to be a familiar environment for your dog, we hope to travel for hiking or visit with friends & close. As its a good option for a long trip and you can easily do things that you must make the trip comfortable for your dog. If your dog has problems with the movement of the car, consider asking the veterinarian for certain drugs to settle his nerves during the trip. Make sure that consider you safety when transporting your pet. If it moves in the back of an estate car, make sure that there is a barrier between him and the rest of the car, to restrain him in the case of an accident, if it moves into the back seat, and then use a harness with an attachment of seatbelt for moderation. Some European countries (Spain for example) now to apply these measures by law. When planning your trip, make sure you schedule stops for your dog, every 3-4 hours. Its good for you also, a break from driving. It is a site very useful for short dog walks near highways - http://www.drivingwithdogs.co.uk/home.

Ferry crossings

Check the regulations for the transport of your dog on ferry crossings if your trip involves the crossing of the sea. Some operators require that your dog is limited to the car on the crossing. Where the ferry involves a crossing of night & a cabin is required, you should check if your dog is allowed in the cabin. Different operators have different rules, check.

Planning your trip.

You must prepare for the journey, not only for you but for your dog too!

Here is a list of control

Passports for pets with vaccines appropriate for all countries that will be passed through, most tattoo or microchip to go hand in hand with the Passport.

Water & bowls.

Food (and a thermos of hot water if necessary to prepare the meal)

Dog treats

All drugs that takes your dog

Director (s), a narrow restraint & a regular walks.

Basket of small & coverage, to provide a familiar place to sleep.

Constraint crate or the seat belt.

Bags of garbage.

Stay during the night.

Its necessary to plan in advance when planning stops during the night - not all hotels & campsites will host the dogs - and the percentage of hotels that allow dogs varies considerably from one country to another. For example, the France is much better than the Spain. Planning is essential, therefore, when planning stops during the night. Make sure any special settlement & deposits which can collect hotels to your pet.

Emergencies

Emergencies can only occur in practical locations, they can also occur then that he was travelling with your dog, possibly in a foreign country with a barrier of the language to overcome. Advance planning makes it easier to deal with emergencies. Its a good idea to prepare a list of veterinary hospitals along the route and your stops on the day the day planned. Get your dog to a veterinary hospital in an emergency could save his life. Car satellite navigation system can be really useful here, allowing searches for veterinary hospitals near your current location and veterinary hospitals in programming such as waypoints along your route. Make sure that you have a first aid kit in the car.

Do not forget leave your dog in the car, it is dangerous, even for a short period. Air time in cars can soar, even when parked in the shade or a hot but overcast day. On a hot sunny day, the cars are death traps for dogs and many die or suffer serious heat-related damage each year.

Take care in the exercise of your dog in unfamiliar places - forget not that natural disasters can be different in your destination of holiday at home. Be especially careful in the South of Europe, where poisonous snakes, Scorpions & toxic caterpillars are a threat to your dog.
