It's an exciting and heart-warming idea to bring your best four-legged friend with you on a road trip but, if you're not prepared properly, it can cause some problems. So, to help us all out, the doggy experts at POPSUGAR have put together a list of six tips you can use to ensure your pup's tail keeps wagging all ride long.
Below is a quick and simple written list of what you can bring or do to keep your dog calm but, if you'd like more details (and would like to watch an adorable dog get some friendly attention), then go look up their YouTube page and watch the video. All of us here at David McDavid Plano Lincoln hope your road trip is one worth remembering for years and years to come.
- Keep your pup calm by bringing their favorite blanket, pillow, or toy
- A day bag with poop bags, dog food, water, and treats is a must
- A massage with long strokes down the spine and tail will destress just about any dog
- If travel has killed their appetite, a mix of dry food, apple sauce, and yogurt will put the wag back in their tail
- Remove fur from seats and hotel furniture easily with a squeegee
- A hollow tennis ball with treats inside is a great toy to use at rest stops
