Travelling with a dog requires some preparation

Travelling with a dog can seem like a very difficult task at first. In the end, however, it can be easier than such cycling holidays. You just need to know what to prepare for in advance. It's all about dealing with responsibilities.

• Compliance with legislative law
• Trip Planning
• Purchase of necessary accessories

If you are planning to travel with your dog, here are some practical tips to avoid any problems abroad. At the same time, you will enjoy your holiday with your dog accordingly.

A microchip or tattoo is essential

Such an imaginary stepping stone becomes, of course, the vaccination certificate. Do not go abroad at all without it. In addition to this, there are some other legal obligations to meet. So, before you leave or depart, check the obligations at your specific destination.

Subject	Information
Vaccinations within the EU	From 3 months of age
Rabies vaccination	Valid within 21 days of vaccination
Microchip	ISO 11784 and ISO 11785
Tattoos	Visible

For example, within the European Union you are obliged to have your dog properly chipped. Alternatively, they must have a tattoo that was done before 2011.

Travelling with your dog from A to Z

When you have fulfilled the travel obligations of a country, get ready for real travel. If you are booking a hotel or other type of accommodation, make sure your dog is not an obstacle. You should also think about your four-legged pet when planning everyday trips. Access to the facilities must not be restricted to dogs.

The necessary equipment is a must

Finally, don't forget to purchase accessories to make your dog's travels more enjoyable. This is doubly true if you are going on holiday with your dog in the summer and warm season. An essential part of the equipment should be cooling pad. Think mobile water and feed transfer. A safety crate and, if necessary, other safety accessories and add-ons are also important for travel. Finally, there is the comfort of the dog at the specific destination. So you shouldn't miss a large enough bed and other things for entertainment.
