Ford tips for traveling with pets

-

MANILA, Philippines - Never keep your pet on your lap or at the front seat — even at 60 kph, a 60-pound unrestrained pet becomes a 2,700 pound projectile. Keep your pets safe and secure in a well-ventilated crate or carrier or secure your pet in a seatbelt attached to their harness.

• Get your pet geared up for a long trip by taking him on a series of short drives first, gradually lengthening time spent in the car. This will get him comfortable and make your trip easier.

• Never leave your animal alone in a parked vehicle during any season. This is very dangerous.

• Keep your pet hydrated. If you are driving with a pet, plan for plenty of stops to walk you pet, and give the pet food and water.

• Your pet’s travel-feeding schedule should start with a light meal three to four hours prior to departure.
