Top Travel Tips
1. Never leave your dog unattended in a car. It takes just minutes for a dog to die from heatstroke.
2. Give your dog a light meal about 2 hours before you set offon a long journey and make sure they’ve been to the toilet.
3. If your dog is travelling in a carrying box then this must be made of wire mesh. Cardboard boxes trap heat and could kill your pet.
4. Keep fresh water available on all journeys.
5. You dog should be secured in your car with a car harness, crate or barrier.
6. Don’t let your dog put his head out of the window; passing vehicles could injure him, his eyes or ears could be damaged by particles in the air or he could jump out.
7. Make plenty of stops so your pet can stretch its legs and go to the toilet.
