It all started with our dog Oliver. We love to travel and he cannot stay at home for health reasons. He is our number one Travel Hound at 15 years of age. As a senior pet, he also requires special gear. He travels with a pet stroller, cargo mat, and washable fleece bed.
We thought that there might be others like us looking for specialized items for thier dog. Travel Hounds was born!
If you love to include your dog in your favorite sports or vacations Travel Hounds has the right gear for you.
I have been traveling with one or more dogs for over fifteen years. While it was always fun, it could often be challenging in the not too distant past. Much has changed in the last few years!
While it was once considered extreme or eccentric to travel with an animal companion, it is now quite common. Many hotels and guest houses that would have never allowed pets, even five years ago, now welcome pets and their humans.
Why? Our priorities have changed as a society. Many people regret not having more time to spend with their pets. They are considered an integral part of the family. Travelers don’t always feel relaxed on a trip knowing that their canine pal is home alone or staying at a kennel. Boarding can also be very expensive, depending on the length of the trip. It is not an option for all dogs.
Consumer demand and increased competition for hotel and condo customers has driven the market to accept pets in ever greater numbers. There are more pet friendly options then ever.
We are here to help you have the best time ever on the road with your pet.
