Ready to hit the road with your best friend? Here are a few tips on how you and your pet can have a fun, safe and enjoyable trip together.

Prepping For Pet Travel

• Make sure your pet is clean, healthy and up-to-date on vaccinations - its a good idea to bring a copy of your pet's vaccination records along and don't forget your vet's phone number. Allow at least two weeks for a newly vaccinated pet's shots to become effective. Ask your Vet before traveling with young puppies, special vaccinations may be needed before you go.  Tell your vet where you're going and ask if there are any special vaccinations are advisable.
  
• Take a test drive - make sure your pet is ready to roll by making shorter trips around town before setting out on a long trip. Your vet can help with over-agitated and carsick pets - there are herbs and medicines that can make the trip more comfortable for both of you.
  
• A sturdy, ventilated pet crate (available at most pet stores) makes for safe and happy traveling for your pet, just make sure he or she is used to it before the trip.
• Be ready for those walks with a sturdy leash and collar with an ID tag - and don't forget, kitty needs a collar and tag when traveling too.
• Pack your pets medications - and the prescriptions too.
• Get that pet first aid kit refilled and put it in the car - you'll be ready for upset tummies, scratches, and minor cuts - don't forget to include the proper dose for your pet of any medications.
• Include plastic bowls for food and water for refreshing roadside rest stops.
• If you're traveling with a feline friend remember a portable, crate size litter box, clean litter and plastic bags for easy litter disposal.  Pets love familiar things so a favorite blanket and toy will make them feel at home.
