It talks about the services that hotels gives to pets and how the airlines treats them. During air travel 12 animals, mostly dogs, died, 3 were injured and 4 were lost.
Then there is an enterview with Cesar Millan, a dog behaviorist and best-selling author who talks to the author answering questions like How do you travel with your dogs?, More hotels are trying to appeal to pet owners with special doggy beds and room service.

I really like this article because I have a dog of my own and I love travelling with her. I found the tips very usefull.
I didn't know that pets could die in arplanes, I thought that the airlines took the necesary precautions. Next time I'll think twice before I put her in a kennel and inside a plane.
I knew some of the necesary precautions but some of them were new to me, that's why I think that if you're traveling with pets it's convenient to read this article.
Take care of your pets. They're not human but they can feel. Give love and attention, they'll apreciate it.
