KENNEL TRAVEL AND TRAINING TIPS
PROPER SIZING
First things first. Make sure you have the right size kennel for your pet, taking height and
weight into consideration. Be sure to follow the recommended weight guidelines, and make
sure your pet can stand up, turn around and lie down comfortably in the kennel.
PLAN AHEAD
Whether you’re taking a weeklong vacation or just going to the vet, don’t wait until the
day of the trip to introduce your pet to her new kennel. Kennel training starts well before
any travel is involved, and some animals will take longer than others to get used to their
new spot.
POSITIVE ASSOCIATION
Your pet may have already made a negative association with pet carriers, or perhaps none
at all. The trick is to help her associate the crate with a feeling of being safe and happy.
Leave the kennel out with the door open well before any planned trip. Place some of her
favorite toys or treats inside after speaking with your veterinarian or trainer. You can also
put the kennel next to you when you’re watching TV or reading, and let your pet enjoy treats
inside it. This should slowly help her feel okay about being in the kennel.
PRACTICE RUNS
Before using the kennel to take your pet someplace she doesn’t want to go, like the vet, do
a practice run and go somewhere fun. Take her on an adventure to the dog park, dog beach,
a friend’s house, or even just around the neighborhood and back so that being in the kennel
isn’t a cause for her to be scared or upset.
AIR TRAVEL
When you’re traveling by plane with your pet, the number one thing to do is to contact the
airline and make sure you understand their guidelines for flying with a pet. You don’t want
to have any problems at the airport that might cause stress for your pet or might cause
you to miss your flight.
