THIS IS AWESOME! My favorite dog trainer and dog whisperer of all time has just released a free video online explaining how to eliminate 94% of all unwanted behavior in ANY dog. Her name is Krista Cantrell and I absolutely LOVE the way she teaches. Click on the video to watch. You'll be glad you did...

Everyone loves going out on a trip, your dog included! They can be a blast to have along, and it saves you the hassle of worrying about a kennel or a sitter. Before you get started though, there are a few things that can make the trip a lot more comfortable and safe for you and your friend:

All of these are important, but make sure you either get a pet barrier for car, or train your dog how to stay in the back seat. Front seat airbags can kill pets, so this is an important safety issue!

Travel Dog Bowl – What do you do when you get thirsty? Starbucks! Stop for a drink, grab something, you’re set. But for longer trips or hot days it’s a great idea to make sure your pet has something to drink too. You can get special dog travel bowls that will keep things more clean, or you can improvise a solution. Either way, this is a must have for longer summer-time trips.

Food & Dog Treats – You wouldn’t want to be hungry on the road, and neither would your dog! Just make sure you closely monitor your dog’s food consumption when you’re on the road so he or she doesn’t get a tummy ache.

Dog Cleanup Bags – Don’t be that guy. When you’re traveling and your dog needs to go to the bathroom, make sure you clean up!

Dog Car Ramp – Provides easy access to SUVs, pickup trucks and other lofty places. Ramps are designed especially for older dogs and small dogs with short legs.

Leash – Nothing is scarier than your dog running off in an unknown place. Make sure you have a dog leash handy.

First Aid Kit – Everything you might need in case of an accident. A first aid kit for your dog is a good thing to have just in case.

Identification Tags – The last thing you want is for your dog to get lost, but in case your dog runs off, make sure your pet has up-to-date identification to help ensure that he’s returned to you no matter where you are.

SUV Dog Barriers – No one likes having to always put the dog back into the back seat, and since the car is moving and everything is going on it can be a tough place for their training to be enough to keep them in back. Hit this link to see how a pet barrier works, and how easy they can be to install.
