It is difficult to take pets in the car without meticulous planning and proper arrangements if it is a long road trip. Pet travel specialists in the UK offer their services in providing adequate training to pet owners to enable them to take their pets along with them on their short holiday. Pet travel training is necessary especially for the first time trip so that the pet lovers might not miss out on necessary arrangements which can prove disastrous to their holiday.
Travelling with pets in a car is not just about loading the pet on the back seat of the car. The arrangement is required to be made in minutest of details. Pet travel specialists offers the below mentioned tips to make proper arrangement.

The preparation for the trip must start well in advance by taking the pet for a series of small ride and gradually increasing the time of the travel. It will condition the pet for long hours of travel. One must also leave the pet in the car for a little while when performing small errands. It will train the pet to remain in the car in case you are required to get down on emergency.
In case the pet will be in the crate, one must chose a well ventilated crate. It must be tied to the seat with suitable fixings. Always ensure that the crate cannot slide or shift in case of sudden braking. The crate must be large enough for the pet to stand and turn around.

The pet must be fed light meals three to four hours before the ride. Feeding them on the move must be strictly avoided. In case of very long drive, one must take frequent breaks for the pet to regain their composure by getting out of the crate and moving around. It will also give them time to attend to their nature's call. The pets must not be left alone in the parking. The parked car with open windows can turn into furnace in summer and refrigerator during winter.

The pet travelling kit must include all the items that might be required by the pet such as pillow, blanket, leash, water bottles, feeding and drinking bowl and their medicines etc. The pet must wear collar with all the details such as address and your phone number.

One must not drive with the head of the pet outside the windows of the car to avoid accidents. They must not be fed water from any location as they might upset their stomach.
