Page has a Miniature American Shepard mix named Haley. She is full of energy, happy, and loves to spend time outdoors. Her family enjoys traveling pretty often and they always try to take Haley whenever possible. Traveling with your pet can seem overwhelming at first, but in the end it is worth it. You build memories, get to spend quality time with them, and do not have to pay for a petsitter or daycare. There are many beautiful dog-friendly places in the US to take your pup.

They recently took their dog to Cape Cod where she enjoyed staying their pet friendly rental home. Haley got to smell new smells, be with her family, and go for many adventures. One of her favorite things to do at the Cape was jump into the water and catch her tennis balls. She loves long walks on the beach, swimming, and meeting new people. They thoroughly enjoyed bringing her on the family vacation.

I have a Catahoula Pitbull Mix, and we loves taking him where we can. Since he is too big to fly with us, we usually take him on road trips. we got him used to traveling in the car early on and now he loves it. When taking our dog on long road trips, we make sure to take frequent stops for potty breaks and to stretch his legs. To make the road trip easier, we will try to find dog parks along our route so we can tire him out for the rest of the drive!

When picking destinations for taking our pup, we look at some good dog friendly cities. Luckily, a lot of major popular cities have become incredibly dog friendly. Some criteria include: dog parks, dog trails, dog-friendly restaurants. Our pup loves to hike, and the best destinations we've gone for him include those where we can bring him on a trail. One of our favorite places to visit in the southeast region is Asheville, North Carolina.
