At Trevor Merren Auto in the Grand Rapids area, we love to give tips about traveling with pets! Consider the best way to travel with your pet in general, and then modify the advice for your pet's personality and needs. If your pet loves to travel, you have a great start to the vacation!
It is easier to travel with a pet if you have a passenger that can help while you drive. Make sure to pack food and water for your pet in the car. It is safest to travel with your pet in a carrier or a restraint system that works with your seatbelts. It is also important to travel with your pet in the back seats if you don't have a pet carrier.
Consider traveling with a copy of your pet's records and getting any medications and shots updated before your trip. Once you are on the road, have a blanket and an extra leash in the car, just in case you misplace it!
