Traveling with your furry friend can be a great experience, but it’s important to ensure their safety while on the road. So, Fiore Toyota has put together some of our tips for traveling safely with your dog! Check those out below and be sure to take on your adventures with your furry friends with confidence that you’ll both get there safely!

Fiore Toyota’s Doggy Travel Tips: 

Use a restraint: 

  • Whether it’s a crate, seatbelt, or harness, a restraint will prevent your dog from roaming around the car and distracting the driver.

Keep them hydrated: 

  • Make sure your dog has plenty of water and take frequent breaks for them to stretch their legs and go potty.

Don’t let them stick their head out the window: 

  • While it may look cute, allowing your dog to stick their head out the window can lead to eye injuries or ear infections.

Pack their essentials: 

  • Bring along food, treats, a leash, waste bags, and any medication your dog may need.

Check your destination’s pet policy: 

  • If you’re staying at a hotel or rental property, make sure they allow pets and what their specific policies are.
