Travel Safely & Happily With Your Pets During Your Next Adventure with Tips from the Thelen Auto Group

Make Car Rides With Your Pets Enjoyable & Safe for Everyone

Whether you are planning on taking your furry family members out for a leisurely drive around mid-Michigan or you plan on taking them on your next family vacation, they will handle the adventure differently than humans. As such, you need to make sure they are as comfortable and stress-free as possible. This not only makes the trip more enjoyable for everyone in the vehicle, but it will also make the venturing safer as well. The Thelen Auto Group of Bay City, MI, wants to help you make every trip with your pets better for everyone in the family with our favorite traveling advice.

Tips to Keep Pets Safe & Happy During a Car Ride

Bring Their Favorite Toys – The toys that your pets love to play with at home can be a great way to alleviate a lot of the stress that they might experience while in the vehicle. They can serve as a welcome distraction from the constantly changing and the unfamiliar environment they are in at the time. Keeping your pet stationary with something like a stuffed animal they love during the trip is important for safety as well. 

Consider Pet Traveling Harnesses & Kennels – As the driver, you don’t want your furry companion to start roaming around the vehicle. This could lead to an unwanted distraction. If you are concerned that your pet might have trouble staying still, there are special harnesses, seats, and kennels that make traveling safer for everyone. Consider one of these options to keep your pet safe and secure. 

Pack Extra Food & Cleaning Supplies – If your pet has a special diet or prefers a specific brand of food, it’s always advisable to bring along an extra amount of that food. This is especially true if you are planning on going on vacation in another state and can’t ensure that you’ll be able to find the food your pet needs. This will keep your pet happy and healthy throughout the trip. Make sure you also bring plenty of waste disposal bags along with you so that at every stop you make, you can quickly clean up after your pet.
