Do you ever take your pet on vacation with you?

?

 

[Pop Daddy]

I did years ago, mistake

 

[browneyes]

Why was it a mistake?

 

[dianeschlicht]

Only when we are combining vacation with a dog show. I have taken several dogs to WDW and put them in the kennels there.

 

[ByTheSea]

Often, except for trips where we are flying. Most summer trips involve taking the RV so having the dog is not a problem.

This year we have a new pet (in addition to the dog) and he is NOT coming with on any trips (anyone wanna pet-sit a lizard?)

90 percent of the time we do... Our dog is part of the family and has been to WDW 4 times already. We take a camper for a few weeks every winter and she loves it. You can leave your pet in the camper as long as it is not a tent style. And we come back and check her ever 3 or 4 hours... We also take her to the White Mountains of NH and to Cape Cod (just last week for that trip) a few times every year. It is hard sometimes to find a place that will accept dogs but we go the extra mile to find them.

On the occasions we can not take her I have the son of a co-worker watch her and the house (he stays here during that time).

Most of our vacations no. He's a 130 lb. black lab so he's not very portable. We do take him to my uncle's cabin once a summer near Woolrich, PA, and he loves it. Just gotta watch out for bear though.

That is one big black lab... I love those dogs. They are just so much fun to romp with...

We take our dog, a golden retriever, if we go to a cabin up north, as he loves the lake and he is part of the family. We do not take him if we got WDW or when we occasionally go to a hotel for the weekend.

The dog goes everywhere; the cat stays home

Of course, Winston is on the job and the cat is ..... a cat.

We did leave Winston with friends when we went to WDW however. We did not want to kennel him or take him in the parks.

We have a hamster named Skittles ...he has come camping with us, and will come down the Cape with us, but I draw the line at WDW...

 

[minnie56]

Put my dogs in the WDW kennels..

Big mistake, would never do again.

I spent all my time going back and forth to walk thm, feed them etc....
Factoring in the 'travel' time from whatever park and the transportation hold-ups...I was always clock watching! It was hard work and no fun!

JMO!

We took our dog (100+ Akita) on a couple of camping trips. The highlight of the last trip was trying to find a hotel that took dogs when I decided that I needed to go to the SkyDome in Toronto for a baseball game at the last minute.

We usually leave her at the Dog Spa or at my mother's house now that the dog is quite old.

That's why we bought a travel trailer!
