Image of a highway with a sign for Rest Area, with a sable and white Sheltie in a red vest with a leash attached to collar and another leash attached to harness. Text: “Traveling this holiday weekend? Be sure if you pull over to take a break, that you double-leash your Sheltie. A loud noise or big dog could startle your Sheltie into pulling out of their collar or harness.”
🚙 Road tripping with your Sheltie? • Secure your dog in the backseat in a hard travel carrier or with a dog seat belt. • Put the window up & lock the child lock. • Attach leash before opening door. • Use a cable tie/carabiner from crate door to frame to prevent door from accidentally opening. • Double leash at stops and rest areas. • Attach ID tags to collar & harness. • Scout emergency clinics on your route. Have a scan of vet records accessible. 🗺️ of lost Shelties in MN and surrounding states: http://bit.ly/LostSheltiesMN_Map 👀 If you see a lost animal in your travels, try to take a photo to post on area lost pet sites with date, time, location & direction headed. 📷 Minnesota Sheltie Rescue alum Sunshine
