Do you take your dog with you on a mini-vacation?

Ruudi has been able to take part in our holidays both in Estonia and elsewhere. Therefore, in a couple of years, we have gained a lot of experience with various hotels and homestays, which are also happy to welcome dogs as guests. To be honest, we have not had any negative experiences, quite the contrary.  However, we have a couple of steps that we will definitely take to make the holiday pleasant for everyone.

Ruudi packs and takes the following with him:

1. Basket or its blanket

2. Water and food bowl

3. Treats and food

4. Some favorite toy whose beep would not be a distraction for neighbors :)

5. And don't forget about poop bags!

We will definitely pack these things with us at all times. Many accommodations also offer baskets and treats for dogs, but in Ruudi's case, his own belongings are always the best.

When we get to the room, we calmly give Ruudi a few minutes so he can sniff over the room. During this time, we will set a basket and bowls for him, then he will also immediately know where the necessary things are for him. Since Ruudi has stayed in a lot of accommodations, a few minutes is enough time for him to adjust. If your dog is just starting to travel with you, give them time to adjust and, if necessary, support them with a treat or a game that suits your dog better.

After we have established ourselves, let's go for a small walk. It is always good to ask the staff if there is a nice walking place that they recommend specifically for travelers with dogs. Very often we have received some good directions :) In any case, we encourage you to take your dog with you on the trip as well, it will also be a nice adventure for him.
