Travel Safety Tips For Pets

It can be nice to travel fun loving and carefree with your pet, but not protecting your pet like you do other passengers in your car can be dangerous.  While your dog may love riding with his head outside the window, that can be a life threatening factor if you have an accident with your pet in the car.  Pets can also wreak havoc on the interior of your car as well, leaving stains and unpleasant odors behind.  Here are a few tips to keep your pet safe and your car in top condition while on the road. 

Do Some Pet Prep
You want to protect the area of your car that your pet will occupy. Rubber mats can be effective in protecting the fabric of your car.  Also, bring along your pet’s normal bed so that they will feel comfortable and be more likely to use it.  Pack a cleaning kit that you can pull over and use just in case of an accident. Letting stains set in can be fatal for your car’s upholstery and smell. 

Create A Pet Travel Pack
When traveling substantial distances with your pet, have a travel pack prepared with all the necessaries. Be sure to include toys, snacks, water, medications, a leash, bandages and shot records for your pet.

Make Safety Your Top Priority
You need to always secure your pet when you travel with them in the car.  There are numerous options for securing your pet, including using a barrier, vehicle harness or pet crate. You don’t want your pet to be thrown around or ejected from your vehicle in the event of an accident or sudden stop.

Make sure your car is a pet friendly place and both you and your pet will benefit.  Whenever you are ready to replace your car, call us and get cash for your old car today.
