Top Tips for a Road Trip with Your Dog
Planning a road trip with your furry friend? From vehicle choices to essential gear, here's everything you need to know for a successful adventure with your dog.
Best Vehicles for Traveling with Dogs
1. Customized Ford Van
Tom Rose from High Ridge, Missouri, transformed his Ford van into a dog-friendly haven. By enclosing the back area, adding custom upholstery, and installing a specialized air conditioning vent, his dogs could ride comfortably in their crates while staying cool. The van allowed him to keep the engine and AC running, preventing overheating during quick stops.2. Pickup Truck with a Shell
For milder climates like Los Angeles, a pickup with a shell is perfect. Adding sliding windows with hardware mesh ensures safety and ventilation. A light-colored shell can keep temperatures similar to the outside shade. If you prefer not to use a crate, consider a rubber bed liner for added comfort.3. Convertible Jeep
The Jeep Wrangler, originally designed for military use, is ideal for outdoor trips. Its convertible feature lets you leave your dog in the back during brief stops without worrying about overheating. It’s also easy to clean after long journeys.Must-Have Products for a Clean Ride
