Bank Holiday Travel with Kurgo 🚗
Whilst travelling with your dog can be a fun and memorable adventure, long road trips can also be challenging. Petplace has lots of tips on how to make travelling with your dog comfortable and easy.
Safety ✅
Firstly, it’s important to make sure your car is pet-friendly. Meaning, you have all the necessities so that your dog can have a safe and comfortable journey. Protect your car seats and, at the same time, ensure your dog is safe and secure on the back seat in this tough and durable ‘Wander Hammock’ by Kurgo. The hammock is easy to install and remove. Additionally, it is not only practical and comfortable, but also acts as a guard by preventing your dog from gaining access to the front of the car to distract the driver.
Moreover, waterproof and stain resistant, you can rest assured that, if your dog does have a little accident, the hammock is easily cleaned by either hand washing or machine washing. Providing your dog with a safe haven to lie in will ensure that he travels in comfort and is a happy, contented dog. Place his favourite toy or some treats on the hammock to encourage him to jump up if he is a little anxious. Not only will your dog be stress-free and comfortable but you will be too, having peace of mind that your car upholstery will also be protected.

Alternatively, you can use the Kurgo direct to seatbelt tether. The Direct to Seatbelt Tether attaches to the female end of your seatbelt, and can just live there. When your dog hops in, simply attach the opposite end to his harness via the included carabiner, and off you go—your dog safely in the back, and you in the driver’s seat. https://www.farmandpetplace.co.uk/shop/products/pet/dog/dog-travel/kurgo-direct-to-seatbelt-tether-black-orange.html

Before and during car trips, it’s important to take your dog for a walk and provide them with fresh air. Not only will this benefit your companion, but it will also make the trip easier for you. If your dog has been out for a walk, it is more likely that they will be more relaxed and calm during the drive, they may even fall asleep. Remember to take regular breaks on your journey to allow fresh air for yourself and your pet.
