Planning family holidays can be a little tricky when families bring along their furry friends. However, with good planning and follow through it can be done well. Besides, going on vacation without all of our loved ones you might have that sinking feeling in your gut that" something is missing". Traveling with pets as a member of the full family is definitely and increasing trend. That is why more and more vacation destinations are shifting policies and making facilities to make their hotels or resorts more pet-friendly. If you are not certain whether your accommodation will allow your furry buddy to stay with you, make call weeks before your planned trip. This will give you enough time to make the necessary arrangements or changes. Don't leave your pet out in the lurch.
Vacation destinations are slowly learning to accept that there are potentially good profits in catering to families who would like to take Fido & Fluffy with them. However, it is recommended that you call the hotel or resort for clarification. Ask specific details regarding guests who have pets staying with them in their hotel or resort rooms and onsite in the resort.
Remember to bring all the necessary documentation for your adopted family member. This will include vaccination records, health certificates, and registration papers. Think of just as taking your children on a vacation and having to visit the pediatrician. This is an important requirement especially for families who need to cross borders to get to their eventual tourist destination. Prepare for the worst case scenario; bring a photo of your pet. Since it's a new place mutt or feline may want to wander around. In case they get lost, a good solid photographs or series of pictures will help people to recognize them in a pinch.
Pets must always have their collar on, so that the general public becomes aware that there is an owner nearby. It's best to have a completed ID tag that has the owner's name and contact information. Some tags are editable, be sure to purchase those so that in case you move to a different location, you will be able to update the owner information without having to buy a new one.
A favorite toy calms the worried or stressed canine or feline. Any object that gives comfort, from a blanket to a ball of yarn, must be handy. It will also keep them pre-occupied or distracted when you need them to be.

In terms of kennel or carrier crates. Some places ask that you kennel your pet if you are going out and leaving your fido or fluffy in the hotel resort facility.. The kennel is also a safe way for your pet to travel. Please don't let your dog ride loose in the back of a pickup truck; he could fall out and suffer serious injuries. Be sure the crate is well-padded!
