1. Tip# Prepare from beforehand
If you are traveling with Shih Tzu, make sure that you get them accustomed to new environment from before. Take small steps like spending a night at a friend’s place or taking them to a hotel room. This will give them the space to make themselves comfortable in the new environment and will also give you the time to notice what they do in an unknown place.
2. Tip# Train for traveling
Small trips, shopping, a car ride now and then will get them accustomed to the idea of traveling. When they already know what happen and how they have to sit, behave and stay inside the car, they will be much better while traveling.
3. Tip# A special dog seat with belt and harness
If you see that your Shih Tzu is not comfortable in the traveling seat, then it is better to get one for them with a softer base and cosy cover to sit properly. The other thing you need to do is to make sure, they are wearing a belt to avoid any unfortunate injury.

Traveling with Shih Tzu calls for a cleanup kit! In the case of any emergency, you can easily clean up the mess!
