Tips for Driving with Your Furry Friend

When driving with your dog, it is important to have a few things in your vehicle to make sure that they stay safe. The first is a dog seatbelt. This will help to make sure that your dog does not get tossed around the cabin in the event of a collision. If you have a dog that sheds a lot or makes a break for a mud hole or the water the second the door opens, then be sure to have seat covers on your seats so they do not get messed up. Your dog may also try to hop in your lap while you are on the interstate. This could cause a collision, so it important to have a pet barrier in your car to limit where your furry friend can go. Additionally, it is important to keep your items like toys in your car to make sure that your dog has a stress free drive. A water bowl and waste bags are also good things to have in your car if you are planning a long road trip that might require you to take him or her out to the bathroom every so often. While you are on your vacation, your pup might get scraped up, which is why you should keep a pet first aid kit in your vehicle to tend to your animal’s wounds. If you are planning on taking your loving four-legged companion on your next vacation, make sure you follow some of these tips to make their ride as stress-free as yours.
