Travelling with your Dog

Those of us with a cherished pet know that they’re an integral part of the family unit. In fact, our furry friends often spend years by our side, providing us with plenty of great memories and emotional support in even the toughest of times. As they play such a significant role in our day-to-day lives, we always want our pets to feel comfortable and safe, just as we do our human family members.

One of the ways we can best protect our pets is by providing them with a safe, pleasant travel experience when venturing along the Great West Way. This article from Comparethemarket shares plenty of helpful guidance on how to drive safely with your pet, including tips on finding them a comfy crate, strapping them securely into your vehicle, and keeping them happy, fed and occupied while they’re in the back of your car. As well as this, it offers crucial insight into the dangers of leaving your pet alone in your vehicle, as well as the risks of not getting them microchipped before you set off on your journey.

While dogs are generally easy to travel with due to their eagerness to get outside and explore, there are always potential hazards that come with travelling any distance on the road. For this reason, it’s always important to educate yourself on these critical safety tips and precautions before setting off on a journey of any length, to ensure a pleasant experience for both you and your dog.
