Dog Exercise on Road Trips

Keeping your dog active during road trips is essential for their physical and mental well-being. Plan for regular stops every two to three hours to let your dog stretch, walk, and relieve themselves. Use rest areas, parks, or designated dog-friendly stops to let your dog run and play. Bring along a sturdy leash and a few toys to make the most of these breaks. If possible, choose routes with scenic trails or open spaces where your dog can explore safely. Avoid overexertion, especially in hot weather; always have fresh water available to keep your dog hydrated. Mental stimulation is also important, so engage your dog with interactive toys or training exercises during these breaks. Regular exercise will keep your dog happy, calm, and better behaved during the trip.
