Dog Travel Needs
It's hard enough to pack for you and your kids when you
go away as a family, let alone remembering what to bring for your dog. If you
take what's on this list, you're sure to be in good shape.
MUST HAVE
Use only positive methods to persuade, or teach, your
puppy what is expected of him. This philosophy is similar to that of raising
infants and toddlers—punishment usually serves little purpose and may actually
do harm.
