Dog Leashes
Traveling anywhere requires a sturdy and safety-tested leash. It may seem obvious, but some owners often forget to pack a durable leash or wish they would have brought a longer leash for playing in new unfamiliar areas.
Poop Bags
Poop bags are easy to forget when traveling, but they're an essential item you should always have on hand. You'll also want to consider a bag carrier that easily clips onto your leash so they never get left behind.
Travel Bowls
Keeping your dog hydrated on the go is important, so be sure to bring along a portable water bowl. Collapsible bowls can be used for feeding dogs as well.
Travel Crate
Many dog owners choose to crate their dogs when traveling, both for safety reasons and to keep your car's backseat a little cleaner.
