I am getting ready to go to Orlando for the International Auto Show so thought this week I would review another product I don't travel without: The E.B.D. Carry All Bag (E.B.D. stands for Everything But the Dog).
This great bag has so many pockets you probably won't use them all, but it is nice to know you can if you need them (great for medications, waste bags, water bottles, cell phone, etc).
This bag also includes collapsable food and water bowls, 56" x 48" indoor/outdoor fleece blanket with nylon backing and a freezable gel pack Dimensions 12"h x 15"w x 5"d.
The E.B.D. Carryall Bag is available in Brown with fun printed interiors in Blue, Green and Pink.
Since my older dog Sammy is on many medications and both dogs have their own treats, food, toys, bones, this bag really helps keep me organized!

Leash Luggage is a convenient way to take the important stuff with you on walks with your furry friend.
Designed to fit onto any type of lease with Velcro straps, Leash Luggage has a compartment for bags (you can use rolled bags or recycle your plastic grocery bags) and a separate compartment for your own things (driver's license, hotel card, money, etc.). It also comes with a special key holder.
I use Leash Luggage all the time. I especially like it when I travel because I can put my car keys and room card in the second compartment for easy access. It is lightweight, easy to add bags to, and keeps me organized without lugging around my purse.

We get lots of calls and orders for carriers that are approved for in-flight use. As every airline has their own requirements and restrictions, we always recommend checking with your specific airline. If you are planning a trip, I just came across a website that lists all the airlines and their restrictions: http://www.petflight.com/airlines
Safe travels!

K9 Flight School Instructor Megan Blake's tips for flying with your pet in this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5X0OQLVjWdQ
One important tip: Book over the phone! That way you can ask all the questions you need to and easily find out the rules for the specific airline you are flying. Different airlines have different rules and requirements, and they may also change so find out what you need to know at the time you book your flight and you won't have any unpleasant surprises when you arrive at the airport.
Safe Travels!

Susan Lanci designs some of my favorite products. The Sport / Travel Sling is one of them.
I travel quite a bit to various Pet Expos, Trade Shows and Dog Shows. My dog, Cookie, goes with more often than not. Cookie is a Mama's girl and wants to be held as much as possible. This can be a bit inconvenient, as you might imagine.
Using the Susan Lanci Travel Sling has made my life so much easier! Cookie feels like she is being held, but I have both hands free to help people, write orders, etc. She'd be happy to "hang around" all day in it.
The Travel Sling is made of lightweight, breathable material that can hold as much weight as you can. Cookie weighs about 9 pounds and does get heavy after a while, but the sling holds her with no problem. I have sold them to owners of heavier dogs, but I would say the ideal weight to be between 4 – 9 pounds.
The Susan Lanci Travel Sling is available in assorted colors, including Black, Gold, Brown, Purple and Pink. It is washable and Made in the USA.

The following information was taken from the FDA Veterinarian Newsletter
With the summer months rapidly approaching, vacation season will soon be here. We all need a little time away from the monotony of an everyday routine, so as you get ready to retreat, it's important to know how to care for your four-legged friends traveling with you. Most of us travel by car or plane, but each option brings certain drawbacks for pets.
Car Travel
Car travel is usually less stressful on pets because it allows Freckles and Champ to be close to you, so you can monitor their well-being and come to their aid when needed. If you choose to drive to your destination, here are a few helpful hints to make the trip more enjoyable.
Motion sickness: It's common for pets to experience motion sickness while traveling in a car. To help avoid an upset stomach, don't feed your pet a large meal before travel. Cracking a window to allow fresh air to circulate through your vehicle also helps. If Champ is prone to motion sickness or if Freckles' sensitive stomach acts up again, you may want to put them in the front seat next to you. Riding up front helps because less motion is felt in the front of the vehicle.
Bathroom breaks: While Champ may snooze for the majority of the trip, it's still important to give him frequent bathroom breaks. Traffic is unpredictable, so if it has been more than a couple of hours, stop and give your dog a chance to relieve himself and stretch his legs.
Sedatives: While sedatives may make your pet seem less stressed during car trips, these medications also have a tendency to dull the senses and lessen your pet's ability to react to the environment, which can be dangerous in an emergency. When traveling by car or by plane, avoid giving your pet any type of sedative. If you think Champ or Freckles really needs a sedative to travel, talk to your pet's veterinarian before your trip.
Air Travel
For people, flying is often quicker and easier than driving, but flying can be a more stressful experience for your pet. If you decide to travel by air, it's important to keep a few things in mind.
Cargo travel: While you're snacking, reading, and sleeping in relative comfort up in economy seating, Champ is usually traveling in the cargo area below, subjected to temperature fluctuations and loud noises. A cat or small dog may be allowed to travel in the plane's cabin, as long as the pet is kept in a crate and the crate fits underneath the seat. Check with specific airlines for more information about cabin travel for your pet.
Check on your pet: Make sure to tell the plane's Captain or flight attendant that you have a pet on board. If the flight staff knows about Champ in cargo, they are better able to check on him for you, especially if an unusual situation occurs, such as an unscheduled landing, extended taxi time, or long layover.
Walk your dog: If you and Champ have a connecting flight, try to walk him before that connecting flight departs. Many airports provide dog parks just outside the terminal. A bathroom break and a short walk will help Champ relax and stay calm during the remainder of his journey.
Crate your pet: During flights, most pets are housed in pet crates provided by their owners. It's important to prepare your pet's crate with safety in mind. Pet crates should provide ample space for your pet to move around and should also meet the requirements set by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (USDA/APHIS) and the International Air Transportation Association (IATA).
When your pet is crated, remember to include:
A bowl of dry food;
A bowl or other container of frozen water that will melt over the course of the trip, giving your pet constant access to cold water;
Appropriate bedding, such as a soft towel or blanket, or shredded newspaper or wood chips if the traveling pet is a hamster, gerbil, or guinea pig; and
A label on the outside of the crate that is clearly marked with your pet's name and your contact information. You should include both your home contact information and your destination contact information.
Be Prepared: If you plan to stay in a hotel while traveling, contact the hotel ahead of time to make sure it is pet friendly.
Before your trip, research veterinary hospitals in the city or town of your destination in case of a pet emergency during the vacation.
Hawaii and Abroad: Traveling outside the continental United States with your pet requires advanced planning. For international travel, contact the appropriate country's embassy or consulate at least 4 weeks before your trip. Different countries may require different documentation for your pet's entry. The state of Hawaii also has entry requirements for arriving pets.
