Relocating is always a challenge, and transporting pets during the summer can be especially tricky due to warm temperatures and busy airports.
Want to make sure your pet's upcoming journey goes as well as possible? Here are a few resources, smart tips, and helpful hints to keep you and your family on track this summer, no matter where life takes you.
#1: Summer Embargoes & Safety Tips
Remember that many airlines operate with temperature and breed restrictions during the summer, so avoid scheduling conflicts and confusion by learning more about how to safely navigate pet air travel during the summer.
Both dogs and cats can greatly benefit from being introduced to their travel kennel well before the move. If they have a chance to acclimate to the crate (and maybe even grow to like it), their travel day will be much less stressful -- for them and for you.
#3: Your Country's Import Rules
Import regulations vary from one country to the next, so take the time to learn what you'll be facing in terms of vet visits, vaccines and paperwork so that you can plan your pet's trip to best align with your own relocation.
