Last Thursday I reviewed Outward Hound’s “Sling-Go Pet Carrier,” and today I have the pleasure of offering it to a Dog Jaunt reader! Many thanks to The Kyjen Company for sponsoring this giveaway.
Using the form below, please tell me about a favorite dog-friendly place — a park, hotel, shop, or restaurant that you and your dog have enjoyed together.… Read the rest
It’s that time of year again — time to pile into the car, or the plane, and go see the family for the holidays. This time you’re bringing your small dog with you, and Dog Jaunt is here to help! Take a look at this collection of Dog Jaunt posts — each contains links to additional, more detailed posts, but I thought you might find it helpful to have our big overview articles in one place for easy reference.… Read the rest
From the beginning, I have thought of Dog Jaunt as a blog for people who love to travel — and who happen to have a small dog. So when I learned that a group of beloved travel bloggers was organizing a fundraiser, called Passports with Purpose, to raise money to build a school in Cambodia, Dog Jaunt jumped on board.… Read the rest
Marc Jacobs reportedly designed this travel kennel with tongue in cheek — it was one of seven custom Louis Vuitton-branded items sold recently by Sotheby’s in a fundraiser for the Red Cross, and it’s clearly over the top. The exterior is monogram canvas “with hand painted personalisation,” leather, and lots of brass; the interior is “Vuittonite leather,” brass, zinc, and leather.… Read the rest
Here’s a dog travel blog that you might not find easily because it’s located at Blogspot. It’s called Travelling Pets, and it’s written by a Canadian couple living in Europe.

This is my first annual birthday post, featuring something goofy from the world of pet travel
Say what you will about American Girl dolls and products, but you have to admit that the company’s attention to detail is amazing. Case in point: Your Just Like You doll’s pet (choose among puppies Coconut, Sugar and Honey, or cat Ginger) can be carried in a pink and white pet carrier complete with mesh ventilation panels on the short ends (each with a privacy panel), an ID tag, a faux sheepskin pad, and a collapsible water bowl.… Read the rest
Sometimes I run across things that you might want to know about, but they’re not appropriate for a Dog Jaunt post — they’re brief, or local, or not quite on topic (like great chew toys for dogs, or an interesting convertible seat belt harness/leash product too heavy for dogs Chloe’s size).… Read the rest
A while ago, I published a post about Dog Jaunt’s competitors — other dog travel blogs out there that you should know about. Here’s one that I missed: Travels with My Dog: Observations on the Global Scene. Helen and her Shih Tzu Raja travel around the U.S.… Read the rest
