Dogs love to travel and enjoy the great outdoors just as much as we do! This selection of dog travel supplies and dog car accessories will ensure your pooch is both safe and comfortable during these school holidays.
#1. Food & Water on the go
The Snack-Duo with Travel Cup by Popware delivers both water and snacks for your dog when you are both on the go.
It is the first reusable bottle with two side-by-side chambers so you won't have to carry both a food container and water for your dog.
Simply flip open the lid to dispense treats or kibble, then pop open the cap to pour a cool drink of water in the attached collapsible cup (holds 225ml).
This is a great product for road trips but also dog parks, running and hiking. The plastics don't contain any BPA.
RRP: $29.95 at luckypet.com.au
The CLICK Car Restraint features a Tri Glide Adjustment and it can be used for both small and big dogs. This also means that you can give your dog as much room to move as you wish. We recommend you always connect it to your dog's harness and not your dog's collar for safety reasons.
RRP: $16.95 from petsonthepark.com.au

#7. Insect Repellent for Dogs
Tired of all these pesky flies during summer? Chances are your dog probably is too…
BUZZ OFF is an easy to use cream that kills and repels flies and other nuisance insects to protect wounds and skin from further damage.
It creates a resistant barrier between your dog, flies and mosquitoes, repelling biting pests. Combining insect repellents, insecticide and synergists for a more effective result, BUZZ OFF can be used on dogs (even cats and horses).
Apply a thin smear to the ears and back of your dog. As it contains a powerful antiseptic, it can be freely applied around wounds and on already bitten ears.
