Your dog travel checklist for the car, should include the following items: Sufficient food and water for the entire trip. Treats... because let's be honest, your dog's a good boy and deserves a treat now and again. Dog poop bags. A leash. A blanket or towel for your pup to lie on. A favorite toy or bone. A current picture of your dog (to show to people in case you get separated). A tag with detailed travel information, including your cell phone number. Sunscreen if you're going to be in the sun somewhere.
Your camping travel checklist should include everything that is on the car travel checklist and also a first-aid kit. You should pack the following: Proof of current vaccinations. An extra leash and collar. Soap and water to disinfect any wounds that might occur and keep the wound dry. Brush or comb. Towel for your dog. Tweezers if he does happen to get bitten by a tick. Dog bed, so he doesn't have to sleep on the ground. Life jacket if any boating will be involved.
Your travel checklist will vary by airline, which is why it's important to check their specific policies. As an example, JetBlue's checklist includes: Necessary vaccinations and documentation. ID tags. Pet license. Approved pet carrier. Pet snacks and treats. If your dog cannot ride in the cabin with you be sure to put plenty of water and some food in his kennel, as well as his favorite toy and something that smells like you so he doesn't get anxious on the flight.
