If the temperature is below, you will need to get a letter of acclamation from your vet saying what temperature your pet can withstand. If you are traveling overseas, you might want to plan ahead. Finding out the hard way is not fun. If the temperature is going to be low, and you are going to travel overseas, my advice is to leave your pet at a shelter or with family and friends until the weather warms up. You don't want to end up with your animal not surviving. 22-Apr-2001 Victoria Churchill ID123 - When going on a trip with your dog make sure to have the following:
21-Apr-2001 Paulina T. ID64 - It is important that your pet have ID tags at all times. Our pets all have ID tags with our home number and address on them. We also include our RV license plate number on their tags, as we use our RV a lot during the summer. I have made 'shrink it' tags as well. These are simple tags made using the craft 'shrink it' sheets. I have made several 'blanks' and I put their name and the name of the campground, camping site number and the phone number of the RV park or campground on these tags and punch holes in the top. I then put them in the oven and they 'shrink' to a regular ID tag size. These are inexpensive to use and easy to create for each site you visit. If your pet should get loose while in an RV site these tags give your current location. Additional information may be placed on the tags, i.e. the address, etc. of your next destination. These tags helped us recover our dog who broke loose from his leash. He was found by another RVer in our campground who commented on how easy it was to find us because his tag contained our site number. We also use these tags when we are visiting relatives or friends and the dogs are with us. There are 'professional' tags like these available, but this is an easy, inexpensive method. 'Shrink It' sheets are available at most craft stores. You trace your outline on the sheets, write your information using a permanent marking pen, cut them out and place on a cookie sheet at 250 degrees for about 10 minutes. 1-Jan-2000 Connie Sporn ID966 - Don't allow your pet to run loose at rest areas. A pet can become lost, run into traffic, or get involved in a fight with another animal. Never leave your pet unattended in the car for any amount of time, especially during warm or cold weather. A car parked in the sun can quickly become overheated - and shade moves. Additionally, your pet can become a target for theft. If you want to leave your car for any length of time and can not bring your pet, contact a local kennel or veterinarian for their day rates.
