Are you planning an exciting trip to the Europe this summer? Don't forget to plan for your furry friend too!
Here's some fun and informative tips for traveling with your four-legged companion across the channel. Let's make sure your journey is as smooth and as wagging tail wonderful as possible!
*Get your AHC Ready*
Just like you, your dog requires documents to travel. Make sure your furry friend is microchipped and vaccinated against rabies. Schedule a visit with your vet for a health check to ensure your pet is up-to-date with vaccinations and they are in tip-top health for their holiday. This way, they'll be good to go wherever their nose leads them!
*Planes, Trains, and Automobiles*
Deciding on the mode of transport is important. Different options have different regulations. If you're flying, contact your airline in advance to check their specific pet policies. For road trips, consider investing in a comfortable and secure crate or harness for your pooch's safety. Remember, safety first, adventures second!
*Barking up the Right Tree*
When it comes to accommodation, make sure to check for pet-friendly hotels, guesthouses, or rentals at your destination. Many places welcome our furry friends with open paws, but it's always good to double-check. If you have a motor-home, then you're all set!
*Pack Like a Pro*
Your dog's travel kit should include essentials such as their favorite blanket, toys, etc. for the journey, also collapsible bowls, p**p bags, and any necessary medications. Don't forget their lead and a few extra belly rubs!
*Beat the Heat*
Summers can be paw-sitively hot, so keep your dog cool and hydrated during the journey. Pack a portable water bottle and provide regular water breaks. Avoid leaving your dog alone in a car, as temperatures can soar quickly, and it's no fun for them!
*Explore with Caution*
While on your adventure, it's crucial to prioritise your dog's safety. Keep them on a lead in public areas, be aware of local rules and regulations, and watch out for hazards like unfamiliar plants or wildlife. Remember, a curious nose can lead to unexpected encounters!
*Postcard-Worthy Memories*
Capture your pet's EU escapades with adorable photos! Share their travel moments on our page and show off their vacation style. Your furry friend will be the envy of their canine pals back home!
Remember, a little preparation goes a long way in ensuring a fantastic trip for both you and your beloved pet. Bon voyage and have a woof-tastic time exploring the EU with your furry travel friend!
