This is a story about a trip I did with my dog this summer. This is an information story, an insight into what you need to consider if your pet while traveling is available. My dog will 's safety in the car envisaged. I had to know where they make pit stops on the road. And I had to know what it would allow hotels to stay.
Sephi is my dog's name, short for Persephone. Sephi is a 55-pound dog, part GermanSchaefer, part of Labrador, part chow, part border collie etc. She loves to ride in the car. I do not go always take them with me in the car during the summer, when it is in the park, but I needed to go to St. Louis for business. As a female I think does not like traveling alone, too far from home. So I decided to take with me as Sephi "watchdog". It is a four hours drive from Kansas City to St. Louis, and 99% of the trip would spend on the highway.
Before he left, Iensured Sephi's tags were readable, and that they are adequately secured on her collar. Sephiroth is not the type to run away the dog, but I'd rather take a chance. Your tags not only her name and my phone number, but they also have your veterinarian's telephone number. The big dog essentials needed for this trip included Sephi's leash, her dog seat belt, water and their water bowl, dog food, doggie bags for picking up their waste,and (a pet carrier that is) and her dog bed. Sephi was wearing her seat belt dog the whole time she was in the car. The dog safety belt use is simple and comfortable place for them to carry on. The dog is a belt as a belt worn. A belt extends from the back of the harness and container castles in the seat belt. When Sephiroth is not in the car, the strap can be disconnected and replacedwith a rope so they would not have worn off and the belt.
I have my own food and snacks, or only went to places where I get food quickly, so I would not have to Sephiroth in the car. It was over 90 degrees outside, and could be even hotter in a car. Other pit stops were necessary. Since the drive was mainly on highway 70, there were several rest stops along the route. These service stations had no toilet facilities only for me, but they also hadDesignated areas for pets Sephi. Most service stations in the United States have shown PET sites. Although it was obvious that many pet owners do not pick up after their pets, I used to get the doggie bags after Sephiroth. Not only that I do as a courtesy, but I did it to avoid getting into trouble with any law enforcement authorities, the chance to be in the area. The last thing I need when away from home, get a citation for a regulation violation. A bad thing aboutTraveling alone with a pet was that if I use the toilet, I had no choice but to Sephiroth in the car for a few minutes. There were signs posted at rest stops for this clearly prohibits dogs from entering the building Sephi could not go into the toilet with me.
Sephi drank water, while the rest of tops, but do not eat them until we are to our goal. This is because Sephiroth is inclined to a little car sick if she has food in her belly. Our trip was only fourHours, so they do not starve for very long. When we in St. Louis we had to find a hotel. Know from experience that many hotels welcome pets, I have not any research beforehand. As a result, I visited two other hotels before I become an established that both parties had accepted dogs and Wi-Fi access. The hotel we stayed at was the Red Roof Inn. It was pretty cheap and convenient. I brought Sephi-makers in the room. This gave her the comfort of familiar surroundings, but the carrierwas necessary for another reason. Most hotels require that if your pet alone in the room that allow the animal to be confined. I'd take care of business, and I would not be able to take it with me. So she stayed in her career, when I left the hotel. Hotels have this rule for two main reasons. First, the hotel accepts pets not want the destruction of their property. Sephi is not destructive, but some dogs are so in the hotel makes the rule apply to all dogs. Secondly, if hotelsPersonnel must be the room that they do not want to escape from the animal or to give the intruder bite. Before your pet to travel, you can create a hotel, the first to find pets allowed. Be sure to read their pet policy, making sure that you can make in accordance with the guidelines.
All in all, the road trip a success. I felt safe to travel alone with my "watchdog". Sephi was safely carry belt with her dog. She was always hydrated and had a lotPotty breaks at rest stops. And she was comfortable during their stay at the hotel. Traveling with a pet is not a drawback if you remember certain points. Research hotels and hotel groups, pet policies prior to travel. Bring the animal carrier, if you leave the hotel without having to plan your pet. Make sure you know that your dog has its day and bring their leash. Make sure your dog has a vehicle restraint such as a dog car seat belt or a PetCar seat. Bring get something after your pet. Bring plenty of water. And last but not least, enjoy your trip!
