Dog travel essentials for everyday outings
A little preparation makes it easier to manage a day out with your dog. Adapt your packing list to your destination, the weather and your dog’s individual needs.
Pack the everyday basics
Bring drinking water, an appropriate bowl, waste bags, a lead and up-to-date identification. For longer outings, plan food and rest stops around your usual routine.
Choose accessories by function
Check dimensions, materials and cleaning instructions. A seat cover protects upholstery; it is not a safety restraint. Select and use suitable restraint equipment according to manufacturer instructions and applicable local requirements.
Practise before a longer trip
Introduce new travel equipment gradually and check its condition before leaving. Keep your pet’s comfort and supervision central to your plans.
