Entertaining Dogs on Long Car Rides

By: Bridget Monrad, R.N. | May 03, 2024


Long car rides can be a blast for humans, but for our furry companions, they can be a bit of a ruff experience. Dogs, while often great travel companions, can get restless and anxious during extended periods in the car. However, with a little creativity and some preparation, our drivers can turn that potentially stressful journey into a tail-wagging adventure for your four-legged friends.

Just like humans, dogs need mental stimulation to keep them engaged and happy. Send along some of your dog’s favorite toys to keep them busy! Some great ones that keep dogs occupied are Kongs, puzzle toys, lick mats, long lasting chews, snuffle mats, tug toys, and balls. Having familiar favorites also helps to keep stress levels low.

Our drivers are pros and know the best places to stop so that your dog can have a mini adventure during their transport. Your dog will get the chance to stretch their legs, sniff around, and burn off some energy. Let your driver know your dogs likes and dislikes so that we can tailor each mini adventure to their preferences.

Having a cozy, comfortable space to rest during the ride makes the time between adventures perfect for a nap. We make a cozy space for our furry passengers to curl up and take a good nap or watch the world go by through the window. Feel free to send along their bed or a favorite blanket to help your dog feel secure and relaxed during the journey.

Long car rides with your dog don't have to be a source of stress and anxiety. Let us turn your dog relocation into a fun-filled adventure that your furry friend will enjoy. If you would like to know more about the adventures our furry clients have had, visit our testimonial page or social media.
