Travel Dog Bed FAQs

How to put a dog to sleep for travel?

Dogs should never be sedated for road journeys as it can be dangerous. Instead, choose a cosy travel dog bed with bolsters so your pet feels secure. A familiar blanket or toy can also help your pup relax and sleep comfortably while travelling.

What dog bed do vets recommend?

Vets often recommend travel dog beds with safety straps or tethers. Beds with firm bases, bolstered sides, and washable covers are ideal. These features keep your dog safe, help them feel at home, and make cleaning easy after long journeys.

How to travel long distances with dogs?

Plan regular breaks every 2–3 hours so your pet can stretch, drink water, and use the toilet. Use a secure dog travel bed or carrier, and keep your dog restrained as required by the UK Highway Code. A comfortable bed reduces stress and helps dogs sleep peacefully during long trips.

Where to put dogs when travelling?

Dogs should travel in a suitable travel dog bed, carrier, or restraint in the car. Smaller pups can use a booster seat in the back seat, while larger breeds often fit better in a boot bed or back-seat extender. This keeps your pet safe, comfortable, and prevents distractions while driving.
