Dog Behaviour & Training

Hit the road! Tips and advice on travelling with your dog.

How can I keep my dog safe and comfortable in the car?

Dogs should always be confined to a crate or restrained by a seatbelt while in the car. If they’re not restrained, dogs can easily become a distraction for the driver. In the event of an accident, your dog can become airborne which could cause serious injuries or death to you or your pet. Human seatbelts won’t work for dogs. Instead, purchase a seat belt specifically manufactured for dogs at a pet store—these belts adapt your car’s seat belts for safe use with your dog.
