A POST BY JAYDA. WOOF.
Being mom and dad's furry little girl, I have seen a lot of this world. I even have my own passport!

I am an only child, and mom and dad say it's surprisingly easy to travel with me. Except for when I had mad soupy tummy on the way to Hungary. That was crappy, pun intended.
Here are our tips for making trips together rebarkable:
1) I get my own travel bag and it has a toy, a towel, toothbrush, treats, cans of food, etc. On flights it goes in mom's carry-on.
2) Mom and dad take the time to search for pet-friendly accommodation. We've been lucky because home exchanges and AirBnB people are very welcoming to me, as are small pensions.
3) My 'rents also always find the nearest vet and green space to where we're staying when we travel. We learned the vet part after I hurt my paw in Austria at Cousin Lv's place.
4) Before booking air/rail/road transportation, mom and dad call ahead and make sure I can fly in the cabin or ride on the train or bus. Not all companies allow me.
Their loss.
5) We structure our days so I can either go sightseeing with them or they come back to me within 8 hours. I just sleep while they're gone.
6) When I AM prancing around like a tourist, they sometimes take turns watching me and going into places like churches, where I'm never allowed. And they always bring lots of water for me.
7) Mom and dad always ask nicely before bringing me into a building. You'd be surprised how many museums, sites and shops I can visit, especially when dad carries me!
Oh, and they just booked flights home to America this summer - on Czech Airlines and Germany's Condor, so I can ride in the cabin with them. They know I'm worth less leg room!
