Planes are not  designed with dogs in mind so when you travel with your pet dog, you need to know the rules and requirements, especially on planes and hotels. By planning and preparing for your dog travel ahead of time, you can make the vacation a really relaxing time for you and your dog. Here are dog travel tips to help you:

Keep your dog calm during travel. Make sure to bring a favorite stuffed toy, or any item which is familiar to your dog and will comfort and relax him. To keep her calm, try rubbing a little lavender oil between your hands and give your pet a little massage at the beginning of your dog's spine or base of his head.

It is ok to crate your dog for travel.  It's natural to feel bad about crating your dog. After all, no one wants to be crated. But don't project your feelings onto your dog. They don't mind the crate and some even feel safer in one.

When flying with your dog, the first thing you need to do is check with the airline for their rules and requirements regarding dog travel. Many require a health certificate and may have other rules and requirements .Your dog will almost certainly be traveling in a crate and it will probably make everyone's lives easier if you crate your dog before you enter arrive at the airport.

Avoid starting the trip with your pet on a full stomach or bladder. However, make sure your dog has access to water, enough to keep hydrated but not full. If your dog isn't flying with you in the main cabin, don't make a big goodbye scene. You'll only upset your dog.

When staying in a hotel same with flying, a little research is needed beforehand. Find out if the hotel even allows pets. Better to find out before you arrive. According to Travel + Leisure, when it comes to choosing the right home away from home for you and your pooch, the booking website BringFido offers an international directory of pet-friendly hotels. Some hotels even recommend parks, hikes, and other dog-friendly activities. At other hotels, the food does not fit a dog. It can also be embarrassing if your dog makes a noise in the room. Don't encourage the barking with affection. Stay calm and assertive and take him out for some exercise to calm him.
