Just like any human parent, a dog parent will prioritize to take their pet with them on holidays. However, some essentials should not be forgotten when taking your dog abroad.
It can be the most comfortable trip of your life if everything is planned.
This will entail less fuss and stress but more, excitement and joy.
Below is the listed of few things that you accomplish before taking your dog abroad:
1) One of the obvious essential is pet passports. In the procedure of booking a flight make sure the airline is aware that you are traveling with your puppy.
2) Flying with a puppy requires a crate. You need to consult the air in advance about the flight regulation of a crate. If your pet is not comfortable in the crate, make sure to familiarize him with it before the flight, by leaving it open and hiding treats in it.
3) You should be aware whether or not your pet will travel with you to the cabin or not.
