How to Travel with Your Pet: A Guide for Animal Lovers

Getting ready for a vacation?

Here are some tips to prepare for a pet-friendly trip.

• Consider scheduling a vet visit before you travel with pets

• If you are crossing any borders or traveling by air, you’ll need to have proof of updated vaccines and a vet health certificate stating your pet is fit to fly. If you have an older pet, one with a history of health issues, or a snub-nosed breed, it’s a good idea for your vet to do a health screening to identify any potential risk factors.
