As things feel like they are returning to normal, at least a new normal, going out and enjoying new adventures are in order. With the sunny summer travels approaching, it’s so important to remember our furry four-legged friends. When you take them on your car ride adventures, please consider their safety. We use seat belts, and they should too for their safety as well. Like children, sitting on your lap with the car moving, whether you are the driver or the passenger – is not safe if you have to stop short or God forbid, were in an accident.
If you have a smaller size pet, consider the basket type where they can see out the window while being safely strapped in. There are other strapping devices for larger pets who may sit in the back seat with the window cracked open for their nose to stick out (I just love seeing the wind blowing in their face and the hair blowing back). Please be careful not to have the window open too much so they don’t fall out. If your pet rides in the back bed of the truck – please consider harnessing them in with more than a single leash connected to their collar. (I don’t want to think what can happen should they try to jump out). Have fun, enjoy the new adventures of this phase for you and your pet’s life.
