If you have a dog then they probably ride with you in your car or truck. Ease the journey for your pet with some necessary accessories for dogs. Here is a list of dog accessories that will help make travelling in a car with a pet, a fun and hassle free affair.

Dog seat covers – Your dog gets muddy or wet – be it a walk in the woods or the park or playing in the backyard of your friend’s place. This can leave potential mud stains or water marks on your car seats. Hence, choose waterproof seat covers that can custom-fit your car’s seats. These covers are usually made of vinyl and are lightweight as well as machine washable.


Pet barriers – For dogs that get anxious in the cars and love to jump around on the seat, pet barriers are a great solution. In a hatchback, you can use a pet barrier to change your car’s boot into a dog travel area or if you have a sedan, you can put a pet barrier between the front and rear seats. This will give them a limited area to play in a car.


Dog ramps – For tiny, elderly, overweight or injured dogs, dog ramps make all the difference. This pet accessory helps dogs get into the car without having to jump. This accessory can greatly ease the process for elderly or over weight dogs that cannot jump or climb. There are three types of dog ramps – telescoping, fixed and folding ramps. They are easy to clean with a non-skid surface and are durable as well as sturdy.


Dog water bowl – On average, a dog should drink approximately an ounce of water per pound of body weight in a day. Water makes up to 80% of your dog’s body, therefore it is natural that they will need to replenish the water they lose while travelling or walking. Hence it is important that you keep a portable or foldable bowl for your dog in the car.


Dog first aid kit – First aid kits are ideal for dogs prone to travel sickness or for those accidental paw injuries. The kit should include bandages, tape, tweezers, latex gloves and scissors and will be a life-saver in case of any unforeseen emergencies during your journey.

When travelling, you want to make sure that your pet feels at ease. These amazing dog car accessories should help you and your pet have fun and make the most of your journeys.
