 A
few things to keep in mind when traveling with
a pet:
When you’re traveling with a pet, whether
across town or half way around the world, you
want to ensure that your trip is safe and fun
for both you and your pet. There are some basic
considerations that will make your trip easier
and more enjoyable.
Firstly, you want to make sure that the places
you’re traveling are pet-friendly. Finding
hotels that allow pets in the room should be your
first priority if you don’t both want to
end up sleeping in the car! Most hotels that allow
pets require them to be in crates while in the
room so make sure you know the rules before you
arrive. Most hotels also require a pet deposit
so be prepared to pay extra, though these deposits
are usually refunded at the end of your stay.
Before you leave, consult your vet. Make sure
your pet is in good physical health before you
travel. Pick up refills of any medications your
pet will need while you are away ... and find
out whether or not there are any concerns about
the area to which you are traveling.
Remember food and water bowls. Keep your pet on
the same diet as at home. Take along any pet food
or make sure you can buy it at your destination.
Be courteous and clean up as much pet hair, etc.
as you can. A good quality lint brush or pet hair
roller is always useful! Also, take along plastic
bag so you can clean up after your pet when taking
them out.
Include a comb and/or brush, nail clippers, pet
shampoo, and anything else your pet needs. Your
active pet may end up needing a bit of a "touch-up"
after a happy day hard at play!
Don’t forget the Collar and leash(es). If
you are traveling to a remote area, consider bringing
an extra leash - just in case one of them breaks.
Be sure to record the license numbers, tattoo
numbers, and microchip numbers of your pets and
bring this list with you. It's important, too,
that your contact information is up-to-date.
Bring vaccination records and other documents.
If you are traveling from another country to Canada,
be sure to check what types of vaccinations your
pet will need. Bring an up-to-date record with
you. Also check with both your home country and
Canada to see whether or not there are any special
requirements for either traveling into the country,
or returning to your own.
