与你的狗一起露营和远足的安全提示

T在这里's nothing like enjoying the great outdoors and spending time outside with your sidekick, 但它确实需要一些额外的计划. Whether you're taking your dog for a hike or a cross-country camping adventure, 先读一下这些建议.

狗可以去你想去的地方吗?

重要的事情先做:检查你要去的地方的规则. We always recommend checking the website w在这里 you're going to read more specifics, 但这些一般的指导方针可以让你开始.

• 国家公园 and forests tend to allow dogs but they have restrictions around w在这里 they can go.
• 计划参观州立公园? Some states don't allow dogs at all, while others allow dogs at most parks.
• A good rule of thumb: Keep your dog on a leash no longer than six feet long. This helps protect the resident wildlife — and your dog from chasing a scent and potentially running out of sight.

去之前请咨询兽医

It's always a good idea to check with your veterinarian before 带你的狗去旅行. 确保他们接种了最新的疫苗. 如果你的狗有过敏或哮喘, you can chat with your veterinarian about how to keep them comfortable. Or, 如果你的狗是小狗或老人, learn what precautions you can take to keep them safe and comfortable.

Make sure your dog has updated tags and is wearing them at all times. This can help reunite you and your dog faster if you get separated.

为你的狗狗准备合适的露营或远足装备

我们把它们放在一起 人类露营安全提示，但是带你的宠物需要更多的计划. 你需要打包:

• 可折叠的水碗
• Extra water (or water bottles that you can refill if the area w在这里 you're going has drinking/饮用水)
• 额外的食物和狗粮
• 额外的皮带或挽具
• 额外的便便袋. Even though you're headed into nature, make sure you and your pet leave no trace.
• 宠物友好型床上用品/毛毯/毛巾
• Your pet's prescriptions, plus any preventative medication (e.g. 蜱虫的药物)
• A pet first aid kit that includes absorbent gauze, tweezers and antibiotic ointment

别忘了带上自己的行李 应急装备 so that you can be better prepared in the event of an emergency.

任何时候都要保护好你的狗

Safe is better than sorry — keep your dog on a leash at all times. 我们整理了一份指南 如何为你的狗找到合适的皮带或挽具，但户外狗狗活动需要额外考虑. 例如, you may want to leave the retractable leash at home and bring a sturdy nylon version to attach to your dog's collar or harness.

狗狗无聊时往往会制造麻烦. If you're busy setting up camp or preparing dinner for yourself, keep your dog in a crate and give them something fun to do (we love puzzle toys, 例如).

你和你的狗一起露营吗? Instead of leaving them outside, bring them into the tent or RV with you at night.

Protect your dog from overheating — and don't forget their paws

狗应该在户外待多长时间? 这要看情况，但要记住:

• 你要去的地方的温度，那里有树荫吗? Walking on hot pavement or a rocky trail can burn the bottom of your dog's paws.
• 你的狗的预期活动水平
• 你的狗自己的喜好和能力水平

You know your dog better than anyone, but follow these tips:

• Keep them in the shade as much as possible during the midday. Save your most strenuous activity for the morning or early evening.
• If you're going camping, comb the area for hazards to your dog's paws. 清除该区域的任何尖锐物品.
• Give them frequent water breaks (collapsible bowls are great for hydration on the go).
• 注意过热的迹象，包括:
  • 过度的气喘吁吁
  • 不协调的运动
  • 呕吐和腹泻
