How to take our pet by car?

Tips for a safe trip with your beloved pet

Well, if you decide to take your pet with you on a trip, follow these tips to have a safe and stress-free land trip:

One question: Where is the best place for your dog or cat?

Dogs should not be allowed in the car
The safest way to move your dog by car is to put it in a suitable box and secure the box to the back seat with a seat belt. This prevents the dog from jumping in the car, which distracts the driver.

Cats should be in a special box
Most cats do not like to travel by car, so for their safety and of course your own, be sure to keep your cat in a special carrier. It is very important to restrain this carrier completely in the car, so that it does not move when the car is moving or braking and does not throw this way and that. To do this, be sure to pass the seat belt in front of the carrier and then lock it to the seat.

The front seat is for people!
Put your pet on the back seat. This is better for him too, because if, God forbid, the airbag opens for any reason, it will seriously harm your pet.

Heads in the car please!
Dogs and cats should always be carried safely in the car. Animals that stick their heads out the window may be hit by a piece of rock or something like that and injured or caught a cold due to exposure to cold winds.

By the way, do not carry your pet behind unoccupied vans.

Keep resting as soon as possible
For every one to one and a half hours of driving, stop for about ten minutes, get your pet out for a short walk and get some air, and if he has a toilet, he can relax!

Just remember, never let your dog or cat get out of the car without a collar, collar and identification plate.

Do not travel alone
As much as possible, try to travel with a friend or family member. This way you will have more fun and you can share the responsibility of driving and taking care of your pet. Sharing work makes you less tired, and if you want to eat or go to the bathroom somewhere in the middle of the road, there is someone you can trust to take care of your car and your pet.

Never leave your pet alone in the car!
A short stop to eat or go to the bathroom may not be a long time for you, but it is a long time to leave your pet alone in the car.

Heat is a serious danger. When the outside temperature is 22 degrees Celsius, the temperature inside the car can reach 46 degrees in one hour. or on a day when the temperature is 30 degrees, the temperature inside the car, even if the windows are low, can reach 39 degrees in just ten minutes. On such a day, if for any reason you can not return to your car soon, after half an hour the temperature will reach 49 degrees. This temperature can easily cause serious injury or even death to your pet.

Add to all the dangers that heat can create the risk of a car being stolen! So never take risks and do not leave your pet alone in the car, even for a very short time.

Finally, try to create a pleasant experience for yourself and your companions by following the rules and seasoning your driving with a little patience.
