1. A proper pet travel carrier is important for the health and safety of your furry companion. Allowing your pet to roam free in the car is not only hazardous to your upholstery, but also leaves your pet vulnerable to the dangers of a collision. Just like humans need seat belts, our dogs need strong dog crates to protect them in case of an accident.
2. Pet carriers usually have handles that make it easier to carry your pet from inside the house to the car. These dog carriers are made of strong plastic that will protect them in case of accidents. Some cat carriers can even be secured in place by your vehicle's seatbelts.
3. A large dog crate is generally heavier than a dog carrier and is usually a metal dog crate. Dog crates are ideal for keeping in the bed of your truck or the back of your SUV for frequent trips with your pet and make handy travel kennels. Many folding dog crates fold up flat for easy storage.
4. The newest pet travel carrier trend is a pet stroller. A pet stroller keeps the weight of your pet off your shoulders and back and make it easy to maneuver through busy areas. Pet strollers are fully enclosed but well-ventilated so your companion is always happy and safe.
5. We have many items to make pet vehicle travel easier and safer on your pets. We offer dog stairs and dog ramps to ease the hardship older pets may have getting into and out of vehicles. Dog vehicle barriers keep animals where they should be and out of the driver's way.
6. Size is essential in selecting a pet travel carrier. Your dog should be able to stand up and turn around in his pet travel carrier. And remember, a small dog crate is not necessarily meant for a "small" dog. Measure and weigh your pet carefully and refer to our sizing guide to determine what size is right.
