National Puppy Day: Great Gear for Your Car for Dogs and Local Dog Rescues

It’s National Puppy Day and one of our absolute favourite days in March, because who doesn’t love dogs!?  We’d love it if you would share a picture of your pups in the comments, and bonus points if it’s in your new car from Atlantic Auto Group, too.

 

 

Today’s blog is all about great gadgets that make traveling with your pets a breeze, and keep your furry pals safe and sound on the road.

Great Car Gear for Transport

 

 

Bringing your pet on your dream road trip is the ultimate in travel achievements.  What could be better than having your best buddy by your side?!  The Mobile Dog Gear Week Away Tote Pet Travel Bag is the perfect budget friendly option for keeping your furry friend fed, watered, and have all of their essentials like meds on hand.  

 

The PetSafe Pet Loo is a portable grass pad and alternative to potty pads and wee-wee pads.  It’s great for dogs to potty on the go when you’re in an area that may not be lush and verdant, solving the issue for habit-trained pups who are used to grassy backyards.  Easy to clean synthetic grass mats and perfect for small spaces like RVs or Campers and Vans/SUVs.

 

The PupProtector Memory Foam Car Dog Bed comes in multiple sizes to fit your car and your dog’s needs!  Your pupperino can ride in comfort and style with this luxurious memory foam bed.  It has supportive sides and bolsters to keep your pal safe, secure, and comfortable on long trips.

 

If your pet is a fidgeter and restless, then the Dog Bed Supplies “Dog Car Seat Central Control Nonslip Carrier” is perfect.  It’s a stiff foam carrier that fits into your car seat, can be sized to fit your pup, and keeps them contained.  They’ll be able to see outside without jumping into the front seat and distracting the driver or causing other hazards.

 

 

The Walbest Dog Car Seat Belt is convenient enough for daily travel use and fits with your dog’s chest harness and lead.  It’s adjustable and loops around the rear seat headrest for stability.  It’s also one of the more budget friendly restraint items on this list!
