Travel with animals

Many people who travel with their pets, whether for vacation or for other reasons, traveling with our animals is possible if, before departure, and must make provisions set losses that may arise, especially when we move abroad.

International documentation

Fortunately, more countries are allowing free movement of pets such as dogs or cats, provided they are in perfect sanitary condition.

The first thing you need to know before your trip will be the requirements specified by the customs of their own country that we are moving. I would recommend a previous visit to the embassy or consulate where you tell us about it in detail to avoid any unpleasant surprises later.

If we take a trip around Europe, the requirements do not vary greatly from one country to another via "Passports for Pets", valid throughout the European Union. This document applies to dogs, cats and ferrets and can be processed through our vet.
To travel around the world as a whole must inform us as there are various problems depending on the country concerned, for example; Polynesia banned the import of animals, the Japanese asked the 15-day quarantine on arrival in Russia we have the documents translated into Russian and authenticated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs .

Generally, this is the basic documentation required:
• Passport for Pets
• health card, up to date on worming treatments and vaccinations, especially rabies
• Certificate of good health issued by a veterinarian 6 or 10 days before departure

Air travel

Almost all airlines accept pets in the cabin if they weigh less than 6 kg., Our mascot will be considered "hand luggage" if we use trasportín match. However, if the journey is more severe as a "burden" in this case should give you a mild sedative as the situation may cause you stress.
Travel by boat

The boats usually have a well-conditioned for your pet. As the small plane can travel with us in the cabin. To travel by ferry, when we move our cars, many companies allow the animals to live in it. Another consideration to take into account, as was the case with humans, animals can also get a headache.
Travel by car

The car was probably the most convenient way to travel with your pet. The most common is that our animals are already used to traveling in our car and do it in a standard way. On long trips you have to provide regular stops every 1 to 2 hours for the animal to drink and "stretch their legs" as we would ourselves.
Another important aspect is where we place our pets in the car. If that is the best large animal to accommodate it in the trunk every time an open and separated from the rest of the car by the fence for this purpose. In the smaller animals can use the back seat, the animal may travel within or without its trasportín if we use the proper seat belt.

Precautions on the road

When we go to make crucial stops to tie a rope to the animal before leaving and not releasing it to ensure that the area is not secure so you can run freely.
If we are forced to leave the moment we see an animal in the car, we found a spot in the shade and the window slightly open. We must avoid exposing your pet to the situation and unfortunately many animals die each year from heat stroke on the vehicle. Nor should we allow our animals, usually dogs, take your head out the window, otitis or conjunctivitis could make you even hit the obstacle.

Please note on the long journey:

• Regular stops every 2 hours
• Accommodations are comfortable and safe
• At the stops, going out with tethered animals
• Do not put the animal in a vehicle only
• Do not remove the animal's head on the table
