@@belle369 You're welcome!
How was your trip? I have 4 and am doing my research so I can be best equipped and have the best set-up.
I'm getting an American bully soon be 12-week puppy old, and the travel it's going to be a 2000km drive any advise, please 🙏 comment below thank you
We are permanently moving 19 hours away to Florida with my doggie!! Wish us luck!! Thank you!
Good luck!!! :)
We drove to Florida (~24 hours) several times, in a van, with five adults and four dogs. 😅 Three of our babies have passed since our last vacation, and things will definitely feel different this time around. Traveling with all four of them was crazy, but I’ll cherish those memories forever. ❤️ Thank you for this video!
Can you tell me how because we are about to go on one
Last year, 8 days and 2000 miles with my black lab, Tanner. 4 hours per day. And 6 hours the last day. We stopped at tennis courts every few hours to play fetch or walks. He loved the seat hammock in the back seat of the truck. He loved the hotel rooms too, and getting spoiled. It wasn't easy, but it was much better than shipping him on a plane. I have 2 dogs now. Not sure how that will work. 😁
That's awesome! I'm heading to Cali on Tuesday with two dogs from Colorado. 2 dogs is more complicated but totally doable! :)
@@DoggyU , good to know that. I plan to move up North in the not to distant future. I already have anxiety about that long of an interstate trip with 2 large dogs by myself. I can say that I noticed nobody messed with me with a large black dog as my travel companion!
I'm moving and I was nervous about my 7-month-old pup to be freaking out the whole time. It's a 5 1/2 hour drive. These tips are so helpful! Thank you!
So glad you found this helpful! I would also try a couple dry runs beforehand so his only car experience isn't such a long drive (if you haven't already). Thanks for taking the time to comment! :)
Loveeeeee this!! So happy I found this channel💞
Thanks Tara for taking the time to comment! Working on a video fro the maroon bells that should come out next week! You can always comment if you have specific questions and I might make a vid about it! :)

Great advice.....thank U!
Welcome to the channel! Thanks for watching and commenting! :)
I'm going 7 hours with three dogs and this video helped so much now all I got to do is find a video that will help me know when my dog needs to go outside or is just restless
If the dog is an adult, I would just take them out every few hours - easier to make a pit stop than to clean up from an accident ;)
Thanks for the tips
you're welcome! safe travels!
i’m sooo late but so glad i found this video.. i’m literally driving from CT to FL with a dog and cat. what a coincidence. thanks for the info!!!!

Thanks for the reminders!
We’ve always taken our two Aussies with us on vacation, but we haven’t gone the last two years due to Covid restrictions. I want to make sure I don’t forget anything that will ensure they have a safe and comfortable ride. We usually travel from Michigan to Florida or Texas. So they’ll be riding 8-10 hours for two days. We always plan on spending the first day tiring them out again before leaving them crated in our room as we head out on the second day for alone time, doing activities that aren’t dog friendly. Then alternate days with and without the dogs, ending with a long day of tiring them out on our last day. I can’t wait to see them swimming in the sea in a few weeks! (As hell freezes over back at home!)
That sounds like a really nice mix of exercise and then relaxation time in the car. It's awesome that you're so conscious of meeting their needs (and ultimately yours for safe and easy roadtrip rides!). Happy travels!!
My hubby and I are travelling from Denver to Miami :) and we are bringing the pupper soooo yea thats why Im here xD
Safe travels!
Thanks this helped a lot i'm on a trip 13 hours away to get a puppy not sure if he's been in a car before!
Good luck with your new pup! Make sure you check out all of our training videos on the Dog Training playlist. Thanks for watching! :)
They are great suggestions. Most of which I did know. We went to Yellowstone Dog Camp in Montana (I'm in NM and it's a 14 hour drive). We didn't drive straight thru, think I divided in 4 hour legs. But she did find it difficult. She loved getting out at parks and so on, but was NOT happy to get back in again.. "Not that again, that driving thing". There were a couple places there was just no where to stop, out in the middle of no where, no roads off the main one or anything. Also re dog friendliness of a state you are going thru--NM is good, CO is great, and Montana is fine, but WY---lots of trouble finding places to eat. And it was the middle of July, which was hard for us in most of the states. We will do more camping and 2-3 hour drives though. She loves to go camping.
Thanks Jay! Yeah some states are definitely more friendly than others. And sometimes, it's drive thru and go!
Some of the rest stops on the highways in Pennsylvania actually have little fenced in areas for dogs to run around in off leash. It's super nice for playing a quick game of fetch. I love the fact that I don't have to veer off the main road. My little guy's longest trip was probably around 10 hours or so from Pennsylvania to Michigan. He is pretty settled in the car. We do use a seat belt, plus he has a little dog bed in the back seat, but he will not play with any of his toys, or chew anything at all. Not sure why? Guess he's just too focus on looking out the windows, or keeping tabs on my driving, LOL!
As long as he's enjoying himself, that's what matters right! :)
jesus christ i’m traveling for 3 hours with one dog, i can’t imagine 5 dogs and 24 hours 😾
Hahah it was an adventure! Fun trip though! :) Good luck with your pup for 3 hours! I'm sure it will all go well!
DoggyU thank you!!!
Citlalli R I’m traveling with 3 for 4 hours 😂😂
Bell Iron Fist good luck!
Citlalli R Thanks 😂😂
Great job! I regularly travel with my Aussie and Akbash Dog. I love the idea of exercising before traveling. The only point you did not make is that Dogs and children should never be left in a car. Even on an overcast day, a car can heat up by 19 (f) degrees greater than the outside air temperature within 10 minutes. If I have to keep my dogs in the car, I leave the air conditioning on full blast and ensure my time away from the car is less than 15 minutes. Just a helpful safety tip.
We got a Tahoe can’t wait to go on a trip with our dogs 🐕
Jazmin Ramirez that’s awesome! Have so much fun out there! :)
@@DoggyU thank you
Great video!! Thank you! I also have 2 energetic herding dogs! I'm looking into getting the orange crate that you have. What size is yours?
Glad you found it helpful! I have a large ruff land kennel for my 50 lb dog and the intermediate (orange crate) for the 40 lb dog, though I put her in the large if it's a really long trip. You can usually check your dog for size at Cabelas where they carry the crates in most of their stores. Hope that helps!
im Moving with my golden who doesn't like the car to say the least. from Massachusetts to Idaho i'm a little nervous about it. thanks for the tips

These are awesome tips!! Any special tips for dogs with anxiety?? I don’t know if I’ll get to do a road trip, but I’m really hoping to do one at some point with my yorkie and our family. She has a lot of car anxiety and motion sickness 😭
Hey Cats - Car sickness is a tough one. I would first reach out to your vet - they often have a perspiration or can recommend an over the counter like dramamine for your dog. On the behavior end, I would spend time with your dog in the car with the car off, feeding them daily in there. Then turn the car on and feed in the car, then drive just down the driveway while they are getting fed. This process can take weeks but the goal is to create positive associations with the car so that the dog starts to get excited about going into the car! Also things like covered crates, gingersnaps, and other herbal calming remedies can sometimes help. Hope that helps!
DoggyU thank you so much!! I’ll definitely try that out!!
@@catsRwarriors3 Remember to be patient - it may take many weeks for your dog to be comfortable - and that depending on your dog's level of anxiety, it's definitely best to consult with a vet.
@@DoggyU really wish I’d known this before I left. I’m currently panicking because I feel like I’ve triggered anxiety in my boy. 😭
we’re moving to virginia from california which would take 2 days roadtrip!! we have two shiba inus, and this will be really helpful! thank youuu :)
edit : it actually took 4 days, and with this video’s help, we finally made it!!
Thank you veanne! You may also find this blog series I did helpful: www.doggyu.com/2018/01/04/roadtripping-with-dogs-part1/ :) Good luck on your trip! I'm doing CT to CO, CO to CT, CT to SC, and then back to CT and CO in April so I'll be doing my share of road tripping too!
@@DoggyU Thank you! I read the part one of your blog and that was very helpful! I'll make sure to have your blog saved and I also subscribed to your channel because I know that this will really benefit me... I'll be looking forward to your next blogs and videos!
@@veanne Thank you! New video on jumping just came out but stay tuned for more van/dog travel videos in the future!
VEANNE a few years ago we moved from Ny to Az with 2 dogs and a hamster! It took 6 days 😂
This is so helpful! We are traveling from Texas to Colorado 12 hours. And bringing my two dogs Australian Aussie shepherd- young dog, and a Jack Russell pug mix -7 years old dog. And we’ve taken them up to Colorado before not too long ago.. but I think we plan on stopping at a hotel six hours in this time. And I really want to make sure they get enough potty breaks!
You said every 3 to 4 hours right? And of course anytime we stop, letting them out :)
I'm so glad this was helpful! As far as potty breaks, if your dogs are adults with normal potty schedules, I just relieve them every time I get gas. That is typically every 3-5 hours. That works for my two adult dogs. If it's a young dog, I'd relieve them more often. Safe travels!
@@DoggyU Tysm!
Helpful tips, just realize on size does not fit all folks. Blue heeler at 2 pulling a cross country drive needed some stretch, hydration, and potty breaks but wouldn't eat until at hotel. Iron bladder meant 4-6 runs were the norm. Dead on with a toy or chewy. He did have the whole back seat though.
Thank you lovely lady. Just about to tour Europe with a vizsla and a cocker (once covid is over 👀😂)
Have fun and stay safe out there! :)
@@DoggyU Thank you xx
I’m going on a 5 hour road trip with my dogssss
thank you! im driving 11 hours to los angeles with my puppy
Safe travels!
I have a small dog, 15 lbs, and he’s very anxious on car rides. He’s on high alert, cannot be distracted with toys or treats, and goes off the deep end with uncontrollable barking whenever I stop the car. I’ve been working on this for 2 years since I love road trips and want to take him with me. He’s gotten a bit better where he wants to get in the car, but he still displays some anxiety during the ride. Two hours is the longest trip we’ve been on together so far, but I’m planning a two-day trip next summer so I appreciate your tips. Since I’ll be travelling alone with the dog, I’d appreciate some tips there as well. I’m wondering how to work around not being able to leave the dog in the car for any length of time in the summer heat and not being able to take him with me for my nature and food breaks along the way since most stores/restaurants won’t allow pets.
Hi Dani - that sounds like pretty extreme anxiety. I would talk with your vet about what interventions might be appropriate to help your dog feel more comfortable. Your dog may also be the kind of dog that doesn't feel comfortable/confident on road trips and might feel better being left home with a trusted friend. I don't know your dog, so no way for me to tell over the internet. As far as dealing with leaving the dog in the car, drive thrus, takeout, curbside, and quick stops with the car running and the AC on at highway rest stops. Also traveling in cooler climates where heat is less of an issue.
I’m road tripping 13 hours with my 4 month puppy tea cup!
On Friday we are going to wales it’s 1hr 14 mins and with a cockapoo pup ollie
Congrats on your new pup! Take a look at this video on bringing home puppy if you need extra resources! th-cam.com/video/e5jv7zEv7wQ/w-d-xo.html
@@DoggyU thanks!
I'm always nervous about buying bones and other chew treats for my pup -- what types/kinds are best/safest?
So, I will preface this with saying there is risk with any chew you give your dog. Freak accidents happen. However, I personally use fresh marrow bones (uncooked) from the butcher, bully sticks, tracheas, and lots of frozen kongs. There are links above to some of the products I use. I always watch my dog the first few times I give them a new chew to make sure they don't do something destructive with it. Kongs are usually the safest bet for something to leave your dog with. You can check out my kong video here th-cam.com/video/p-fkW_2JEXA/w-d-xo.html to help you with what to stuff them with. Also, you want to stay away from rawhide and ropes as things to chew on as those can break apart and cause choking. If you're nervous about what to give them, i'd stick with kongs and tracheas, otherwise, I use everything listed above. :)
We're traveling 17 hours continuously from Bangalore to vizag with our ten year old labrador, wish us luck!!❤️💛🐕
Good luck! Hope your pup sleeps the whole way :)
useful tips. Just one more question. If it is only me and my 2 dogs. Can I run to the bathroom real quick and then comeback or do I have to take them with me? 😮💨
It really depends if it’s hot or not. If it’s not hot and there’s no risk to your dogs, there’s no reason you can’t run into a rest stop/bathroom! :)
I have 2 dogs, one is fine with the crate however the other one won't go anywhere near the crate. Any tips to either help her like the crate or anything else? Thanks
I have a video called "getting your puppy at 8 weeks" that has a little bit of how i shape crate behavior. That being said, I can also recommend Susan Garretts crate games if you're interested in helping your pup get comfortable with a crate. hope that helps!
Can you list what national parks you visited? I know some national parks don’t allow pets
Hey Jessica - so we've been to soooo many national parks. All of them allow dogs in the car and on main roadways and in some campgrounds. There are only a few that have dog friendly trails. So here's some we've been to that aren't great for dogs: Arches, Badlands, Glacier, Sequoia, Pinnacles, Rocky Mountain, Yellowstone, Joshua Tree and more but here's some that have some dog access (but usually not all trails): Great sand Dunes, acadia, Shenandoah, White sands, grand canyon, and Zion (only has one trail open to dogs and it kinda sucks). So, you will have to make arrangements for your dog. So for instance in Yellowstone on the days we were doing a lot of driving around, the dogs came. On the days we wanted to hike, we rented an air B and B and left them there. Some will hire a dog sitter or put their dogs in daycare, which isn't an option for us, so you just have to make a plan for what works for your dog, or only visit places where your dogs can come. Remember, your dog should always be on leash in the national park system. Also, many national parks have national forest right outside the park bounds that is dog friendly, so check that out!
How about a looooong cross country trip?
Hey Paloma - we regularly use these same tips to drive cross country. You may also want to check out this video: th-cam.com/video/ZaGp-yVPu_0/w-d-xo.html
I'm going 7 hours with a yorkie
Have a great trip!
My pup is going to be 7 months old when we move 14 hours away. I'm going to be 8 months pregnant and moving a cat as well. He's too big for a carrier, so we're probably going to use a seatbelt. He's good laying down in the car but he has motion sickness. Really worried about this long drive
Hi Coupon KItty - I would speak with your vet concerning the motion sickness. A lot of times they can prescribe something, or offer you on OTC solution, especially since this is a one time move. Your vet will definitely be able to help, but you'll need to reach out now so that you can test it out before the trip. Hope that helps! :)
Any tips for road tripping with reactive dogs?
Hey Jasmine - I think having a reactive dog travel in a crate and remain in the crate while you're away from your video is always a good idea. Also getting a vest that says "Give Me Space" or "Please Ignore" would be helpful. I also use natural herbal supplements to help with the stress of travel. Hope that helps! :)
I'm moving from Kentucky to Utah in a few weeks with just my car... and my great pyrenees. Thats 27 hours of drive time without breaks. I'm trying to learn everything I can about roadtripping with a big dog.
Everything outlined above plus perhaps a fan or similar in the back if there isn't good airflow to keep him cool :)
@@DoggyU oooh I didn't think about that. Thanks for the good advice!
@@Mpearl8084 no problem Margot! Safe travels and download lots of podcasts! :)
Hey, great video!! We have a harness and a seatbelt bought for our dog. We secure him in the back seat, but he keeps walking and moving a LOT, and often gets tangled up in the seatbelt. How can we avoid this? =( This forces one of us to always have to sit in the back with him.
Perhaps spending some time practicing down-stays in the car while not turned on, when turned on, when going around the block, etc. That being said, it sounds like you might be best served with using a crate instead in this situation.
@@DoggyU
When using a crate in the car, just make sure the crate is anchored in place. We use the anchors for car seats which already exist in the cargo area. Please don’t let pets ride in an unsecured crate. Thanks!
Thanks for the video i’m going 1.200 kilometers away and i couldn’t leave my dog at home so this is very helpful video
So glad to hear it! Safe travels!
I'm gonna go on a 16 hour long trip with my Japanese Spitz puppy (Age is 1 month old) I'm so nervous-cited.. (quraintine is over in my country) wish me luck. 😁
Our puppy is about 14 weeks old, how long would she be able to hold her bladder? We're going on a 12-13 hour drive.
A good rule is they can hold it for one hour per month of age. So at 3 months or so they should be able to hold it for 3.5 hours. It's typically more if they are stationary (like in a crate while you travel) but I'd give them lots of opportunities to potty! :)
My dog gets sick and vomits everytime I take him on a car trip nearby and he is continously anxious.. What to do
I would speak with your vet on that matter as I am not a vet. But some dogs respond well to ginger. I also spend time feeding my dog in the car without it moving or running to make a positive association.
We are trying some of this with our older beagle. He usually gets car sick even going to the vet. We have a long road trip in a month. His usual home behavior is laying around doing nothing. Trying to get him to run is a chore. We took him today a little further by going 4 miles down to the grocery store. We got there fine. I stayed in the car with him when my husband went in to buy a few things. This upset the dog and he cried the whole time until my husband got back in the car.
Any suggestions?
Hi Michelle! It sounds like he had some separation distress. Were you able to distract him with food or play? You may have to start with shorter periods (ie. husband gets out of the car, dog gets a treat, husband immediately returns to the car.)
It may also be time to consult with your vet and/or a veterinary behaviorist, especially if you're planning on a long road trip. They can help you with some medical interventions for motion sickness or anxiety if your beagle needs to make the trip with you. Sorry I can't be of more assistance!
I'm nervous cause I'm picking up my new puppy in another state and the drive back is 15 hours. I'm scared that it'll be too much of a shock to her
Hi AmberRose! Puppies are pretty adaptable so they will likely be fine. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best. Lots of potty breaks and chew items, but they will likely sleep most of the ride. Good luck!
Any suggestions for traveling with two dogs (75 and 120 lbs) two adults and 1 kid?
Hi Hector - i don't have any specific suggestions for two larger dogs besides those that are in the video. I hope it's a big car! :)
@@DoggyU Thinking of renting a minivan, for now. We have traveled with one dog and he's ok. The other one and the kid are new additions.
Need to drive 40 hours across Canada with my anxious dog soon... nervous!!
I would speak with your vet to see if theres anything you can do for your dog if they are truly anxious about car rides.
@@DoggyU unfortunately the closest vet where I live is 4 hours away and refuses the speak on the phone and I only have 2 days left. I’ve only known I was moving for 5 days. Hoping for the best
@@jesskarose2446 Good luck on your trip! Calming chews and food toys will hopefully help!
I am rescuing a dog who is 4 hours away and need some tips on that. Can you help it will be a 4 hour trip back home,
Hello! The tips in this video should be helpful. Have lots of yummy long-lasting chew stuff available, contain the dog in some way so they aren't a driving distraction, and if you can, exercise them a bit beforehand! :)
hi do you happen to know what proof i need to show an airport to bring my dog with me i signed up for us service dog passed my portion of the test and now working thru my dogs training for her test. but still not sure of what am i supposed to present once done with testing to get on a lane with her
Hi Liz! You will simply need to fill out the DOT form. You can learn more about that in this video: th-cam.com/video/hhWofXJmETg/w-d-xo.html
@@DoggyU thank you so much
your amazon links for the harshness no longer work
Woops! Here's the sleepypod harness: amzn.to/3uSUBjT
I guess I'm a bad person because I wanted to hug my sisters dog and pat his head and say good boy because her dog got sick and peed in her car.
I was nice enough to help her move but she was in such a rush to get there she ignored the dog.
She kept saying the dog is fine.
We stopped at least every hour and 1/2 for our dog and sometimes even sooner.
Needless to say my inpatient sister kept going and wouldn't let her dog ride with us on a 6 1/2 hour trip one way.
.3 keep safety first🤣
I don’t know if you are reading the comments and responding but if you are I wanted to know if you have had any experience with two dogs that are best friends and want to play together every second that there with each other having to be in a car together for a trip how am I going to be able to stop them from wanting to play with each other as long as they are both in their own crate do you think they will stay calm or will they try to constantly keep trying to get at each other through the crates? Also my mom believes that you can’t give a dog a bone to chew and less you can watch them the whole time To prevent any kind of choking I personally do not believe this unless it’s a rawhide because they can be dangerous but I also would never give my dog rawhide LOL I have a 15 month old German Shepherd and she has a 12 month old female Rottweiler her dog chews everything and I mean completely choose it like until it’s gone my dog doesn’t care too much for chewing unless it is a raw fresh meatballs and even then he can go without
I would definitely crate them both, cover the crates and practice having them chew some KONGs next to eachother before the trip :) KONGs are generally safe but watch your dog with them first to make sure.
I’m going to California with my family, and my- well, 7 puppies and 2 big dogs. Crazy right? I’m renting a apartment pet friendly. Wish my luck.
That sounds like ... well .. a lot of work! lol. Good luck on the road!
I’m driving up to NY from FL to pickup our new 8wk old Shih Tzu puppy this weekend. Would you say this video still applies?
Yes, but also the pup will probably be pretty tired (hopefully!). Be prepared with everything in the video but also be flexible and change plans based on what your new pup needs.
DoggyU What are your thoughts on a doggy booster seat?
@@JessicaLopez-kk1xs I have never used them so I can't comment. But the crash-tested crate is the safest place for your dog to be in the event of a crash. A crash-tested harness is your second-safest option so that your dog doesn't become a projectile if you are forced to stop suddenly. Good luck with your pup!
I'm going for 15 hours to travel with my 3 month old pup he has already travelled that much 4 times before he was never having problems but this time he is sick I mean he's shedding and itching like he'll die to giving wrong dog food and allergic reaction at this moment I have to take my dog please put forward your helpful response..
Thanks in advance
Also
Wish me luck
Hi Scooby - I would recommend you call your vet to see if there's any medication that can help ease the allergies for you pup. The vet would be the best one to help you with this. Good luck!
Got a promblem! So we only stop two times in a store .can you give me a tip for my dog not to poop in the car
Is your dog generally potty trained?
Lupita Aplolinar don’t know if this works but I ll use female dog diapers. Getting a puppy 6 hrs away so that’s what I’ll do 🤦🏼♂️
In 3 hours I'm taking my south ga dogs and loading them in my jeep to move to Kansas. Wish us luck.
good luck! you got this!
Has anyone else an Caucasian Shepherd 15 months old, how are they acting when traveling?

I’m driving across 5 states for 9 hours to pick up my puppy, any new tips? Cause I won’t be able to have that bond with that puppy because this will be the first day we meet and the day I pick him up.
Nothing specific. Be prepared with puppy treats but also know that the pup might be so wiped out from such a big day that they sleep in their crate the whole time. But prepare lots of stuff and hope you don't need it. Also generous potty breaks for sure!
DoggyU thank you so much! I’ll let you know how it goes when I get my little guy.
@@malikes4591 Good luck! Also make sure you check out our videos on puppy training. Especially what to do when you bring them home: th-cam.com/video/e5jv7zEv7wQ/w-d-xo.html
DoggyU will do!
How can I go shopping to places that are only for humans? when on a long trip but can not leave them at a hotel
Hi David,
There's a lot of options as far as when you need to go to activities without your dog. First, i would get a hotel where you ARE allowed to leave your dog if you have an activity you need to do without them. Second, if it is not too hot and not too cold, can you leave them in the car while you run a quick errand? That's a good option depending on weather for late fall and early spring. If you are going to a national park, many have doggy daycares nearby that you can sign your dog up for. Lastly, you can use an app like Rover to get a local petsitter for your dog. Choose whichever option you're most comfortable with. Thanks for watching! Best, Laura

@@DoggyU Thank you!
Going on a trip with my dog to florida from pennsylvania. he hates cars, he wines and doesn’t stop. the only time he didn’t, is when we got him some dog ice cream for him to eat.
Hi Michaela - now is a good time to talk to your vet about the drive and whether or not some type of medical support might help your dog be less stressed on that long drive. Hope that helps!
DoggyU okay thanks! sometimes if we put him in the floor of the car he stops but not for long. we got a shock collar that we can control when we want to and maybe that will help him learn to stop whining. thanks for the help!
@@michd5290 I would definitely not use a shock collar on him in the car. Your dog is likely whining because he's scared, nervous or his stomach is upset. Applying pain to that situation will make him fear the car more, and likely increase the panting and whining and make him not want to be in the car at all. As I mentioned, I would call your vet and get some medical support that will help him feel more relaxed and less anxious in the car. This will support his mental health and car experience in the long term.
DoggyU we use the shock collar for when we take him out and he tries to get a bird or a bunny. we put the shock low so it doesn’t hurt him. there is also a channel where it can make a beep which would get him to come like inside. it also has a vibrate channel, too. we went to the vet on Friday, they had to squeeze us in. so we can’t talk to the vet really Because they work so we can’t have a like conversation. we are trying to get him to go into the car but maybe if we like beep every time he whines, he will stop. knowing that if he keeps going, he i’ll hear a beep again.
@@michd5290 Typically the vet will be able to prescribe something over the phone. There are also many natural remedies you could work with.
_googles crash tested dog crate_
$$$🤯$$$
A crash-tested dog crate is an investment for sure. But check your local facebook marketplace. I recently picked up a $900 impact crate for $300 and a $400 ruffland kennel for $75 so deals are out there that will also keep your dog safe :)
My dog dose not like pens or crates 😥🐶
Can you help
@@lara7874 - getting your dog slowly accustomed to the crate is an involved training process depending on the dog. It may be something you want to hire a trainer for. If you're interested in consulting on crate training, check out my online training options at doggyu.com. Thanks!
I’m traveling 23 hours with 5 dogs 4 hearding dogs and 1 lab
sounds like a party! :) safe travels!
@@DoggyU thanks haha we have to fit 5 crates and all of our stuff and dog stuff wondering how I’m the world we are gonna
Forget it. It’s too late to get the three dogs “used to it”. No long hikes. They are little. They hate exercise
I have to bring my dog 16 hours away lol
you got this!
lmao what do i do when i’m getting a puppy 3 hours away so it’d take 3 hours in a car to get home with a brand new pupper
So all you can do in that case is be prepared with KONGs and chews for puppies. Usually new puppies sleep on the ride home since there's so much new stuff going on. It can help to give them some play, an exploratory walk beforehand. I know I had to drive my girl 9 hours home. Gave her two potty breaks but other than that she hung in the crate and chewed on her chewies. Good luck!
DoggyU thank you so much for replying! that helps a lot!
