At Bert & Hugo, we know how important it is to make every trip stress-free—for both you and your dog. That’s why we’ve put together this ultimate guide to help you prepare for your next journey with your pup!
- Plan Ahead for Pet-Friendly Accommodations
Finding the perfect place to stay is key. Look for accommodations that welcome pets and offer extras like dog beds, bowls, or even nearby walking trails. (Psst… Our upcoming reservation platform will make this step a breeze—stay tuned!) - Pack the Essentials
A checklist is your best friend. Don’t forget:
Food and water bowls
Favorite toys and blankets
A first-aid kit tailored for dogs
Travel-friendly leashes and harnesses
Waste bags and grooming supplies - Keep Your Dog Comfortable During Travel
Whether you’re traveling by car, train, or plane, comfort is crucial. For car rides, invest in a dog seat or harness for safety. On planes, check airline pet policies in advance. And don’t forget to give your pup frequent breaks to stretch and hydrate. - Prepare for Outdoor Adventures
Exploring new destinations is exciting, but ensure your dog is safe and happy. Bring along anti-stress vests, weather-appropriate gear like winter jackets, and heated mats for chilly destinations. These are part of our handpicked “Travel Must-Haves” collection. - Stay Calm and Flexible
Unexpected hiccups happen, but staying calm will help your dog feel secure. Have a backup plan and remember: the journey is just as important as the destination.
