RV Pet Tip

Dr. Bloomfield is on the board of his local humane society in Truckee, Ca and is their vice president. He also writes a regular column for their newsletter, and helped to create the
Canine Companion Traveling Kit.

When traveling with pets, always carry copies of rabies certificates, and if you are traveling far, get a copy of the medical records to keep with you. Health certificates are required in some states and all other countries. It is your obligation to find out the requirements in the states you are visiting. If you can print them out (your vet likely has most of them but know exactly what you need and make any appointment as far in advance as possible to handle anything that comes up before departure) it will make it easier for the front staff to do the paperwork and make the right appointments....
What you will encounter depends on where you go and your particular dogs. They must be up to date on vaccines. Parvo lives for a long time in the environment and you may travel a well "visited" road. You will very likely be in or pass through heartworm territory so bring plenty with you and administer it according to the directions. Flea and or tick control is likely something to plan for and there are many excellent products your vet can prescribe for your dogs to suit your specific needs.

Internal parasite control may be part of the protection you need as well. There are a myriad of wonderful experiences to encounter out there. Enjoy, and never turn your dogs loose, anywhere.Canine Companion; "Emergency first aid and Travel Kit for Dogs"Everything a dog might need in an emergency whether at home or on the road.
