The 6 Must Haves for Flying with your Pup

The 6 Must Haves for Flying with your Pup

1. Documents for your pup. Make sure to check with your specific airline for the exact documents you need but most common is a Veterinary Health Document or Official Immunization record. This document needs to be signed/dated by your vet within 10 days of your travel date.
2. Airline approved dog carrier - Here are some we have tried:
 
 
 
3. Poo Bags
 
 
4. Eye Ointment (this is one of our best tips) Eye ointment keeps your dog's eyes moisturized, which protects them from ulcers. ** Pro Tip: Keeping your dog's eyes moisturized before sleep prevents discoloration of the eye and keeps the whites of their eyes WHITE and healthy. Here is the one we use:
 
 
5. Treats - This is one of our new FAVES!
 
 
6. Chew Toy - We love bene bones and haven't met a dog that isn't obsessed.

A little thirsty... He cracks me up, Enzo is such a character! :)

 

Frenchie Meet Up - There are so many frenchies in the SF area, you'll be sure to meet some new friends!

Here at our Frenchie Meetup we got to meet some awesome dogs and their humans. #FrenchOnABench

 

Bromance - Northern California is filled with dog-friendly places to eat and drink. You'll find that most every restaurant with outdoor seating will welcome you AND your pup to dine on the patio.

Leo (left) and Enzo (right) shared a delicious grass-fed burger on the patio at one of Palo Alto's dog-friendly spots.
