Safe Driving Tips for Pet People
It’s road trip season, and many pet owners will want to bring their furry friends along for the ride this summer. However, it’s best to read up on these safe driving tips before hitting the road:
- Feed long before you leave. By feeding your pets at least a couple of hours before the trip, they will have time for the food to settle. This will help keep them from getting car sick.
- Secure your pets. Few things are more distracting than a loose animal in a car. Whether you use a crate or a harness, make sure your pet is secure.
- Don’t leave your pet in the car. It’s summertime, and a hot car can quickly turn into an oven. Cats and dogs can get heat stroke just like humans.
Remember these safe driving tips – both for you and for your beloved pets – because a relaxing car ride is always more fun than a traumatizing wreck.
