Traveling with your dog for the first time can be overwhelming and there are a few challenges that you will face. We have traveled with our pets for years and there is so much that we have learned along the way.
To keep them safely in the back you can get a pet barrier that stops your dog from coming to the front. A mesh net will circulate the air while keeping your dog secure in the back seat.
If he’s not up for lunch – I don’t force him to eat. Sometimes the car motion can make them feel nauseous and most often their appetite will return by dinner time.
Along with food I also bring a few large bottles of water. Whenever I stop to get gas, food, or to stretch my legs, I will check to see if my dog wants some water – and then take him for a potty break after.
