Summary:
Traveling with your dog takes a bit more thought then just hopping in the car. Here are suggestions on making these adventures a little less stressful.

Details or Sample:
Taking short trips with your dog can help to get him used to the idea of traveling with you, and to keep him from becoming insecure over the constantly changing surroundings. If your dog does succumb to carsickness, check with your vet for a prescription to help prevent it.

Check out any hotels, motels, or campgrounds you plan to stay at during your adventure. Many businesses are willing to accommodate your pet, but it´s best to know in advance rather than being forced to relegate your traveling companion to the backseat for the night. Petswelcome.com is a good source for accommodations that are pet-friendly. You may also want to check ahead for restaurants with outdoor accommodations for diners with pets. Many cities enforce their health ordinances and many otherwise pet-friendly managers and staff are strict about no pets even on picnic tables away from the main building.

If you plan to fly with your pet, be sure to check out the airline´s procedures very carefully. Each airline has different rules about transporting pets. This is good information to have well in advance of your intended flight schedule. Understand that your dog may be handled by other people along the way. Socialization of your pet will help make things much easier for both you and your dog.
