00:00:01.320 --> 00:00:10.000
It's Maria's MutS and Stuff. What
a great idea on I heard radio Welcome

2
00:00:10.039 --> 00:00:14.400
to Maria's MutS and Stuff and with
me today is well. She is the

3
00:00:14.439 --> 00:00:18.399
most frequent guest I have because I
know she enjoys it, but I enjoy

4
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:21.960
her even more. It is doctor
Amber car Wacky from Heart and Baugh.

5
00:00:22.359 --> 00:00:27.440
So welcome again to Maria's MutS and
Stuff to talk about our favorite pets.

6
00:00:29.079 --> 00:00:32.880
Thank you for having me. I
love coming here. You're awesome to work

7
00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:36.039
with, hang out with. Well, so are you? So are you?

8
00:00:36.119 --> 00:00:40.240
This is so much fun. So
it's that time of year people are

9
00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:45.240
taking vacations and you know, like
me, I travel with my dog because

10
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:47.799
he's older and I don't like to
leave him. So I know that there

11
00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:52.920
are many different things that we need
to know in order to keep our dogs

12
00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:58.520
happy and safe and healthy to come
along with us on vacation. Yeah,

13
00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:03.079
So, what would you say is
the most important pet tip? I mean,

14
00:01:03.120 --> 00:01:06.040
I know they're a bunch of them
and I want to talk about them

15
00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:07.439
with you. I mean, I
have one in my brain. What do

16
00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:11.640
you think is the most important one? So for me, the most important

17
00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:17.920
is making sure you have a copy
of your dogs vaccine workers, and know

18
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:23.760
of where the emergency hospitals are where
you're traveling to. In the worst case

19
00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:26.799
scenario that you do need to take
your dog to a vet, you know

20
00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:29.640
where they are ahead of time,
like have their addresses, so you can

21
00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:33.719
just plug it into that GPS and
off you go without having a stand up

22
00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:36.760
for twenty minutes or so trying to
find a place. Oh wow, I

23
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:38.879
would never think of that. My
thought was the most important thing is not

24
00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:42.480
to leave your dog in the hot
car, But yours is even more important.

25
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:45.519
I mean, I know mine's a
good one, but yours is,

26
00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:51.799
like you win, honestly, and
I've never done that. So you just

27
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:55.439
taught me something. Seriously, I've
never thought to do that because I guess

28
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:59.879
the assumption is nothing's going to happen, but something can always happen, right,

29
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:04.519
We as veterinarians, we are the
worst case scenario thinkers of what could

30
00:02:04.519 --> 00:02:07.199
be happening and what we need to
know for everything, right right, No,

31
00:02:07.319 --> 00:02:09.960
that's genius, Thank you for that
one. Okay, So that's very,

32
00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:15.000
very very important. So have your
vaccination records and definitely know where to

33
00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:19.719
go. Like I guess, when
you research where you're going to stay right

34
00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:25.240
dog friendly places also research ve hospital
nearby. Oh my god, that's brilliant.

35
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:30.919
Okay, well that's a good one. What else should what should we

36
00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:36.960
bring with us? Besides obviously food
and if your dog needs medications and stuff

37
00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:42.280
poop bags? What else is important
to bring? Yeah? Try to bring

38
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:45.680
is like you have a larger dog
like I do. You can't necessarily bring

39
00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:49.560
their dog bed, but maybe like
a blanket or a pillow or like their

40
00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:53.120
favorite choice, I've something from home. Bring their food bowls if you can,

41
00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:57.960
and if you're flying or driving,
so that way they have like they

42
00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:01.680
have their usual bowls and stuff like
that, so there's some familiarity where they

43
00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:05.800
are at for them. No,
that makes sense. That makes that makes

44
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:10.000
a lot of sense. And I
mean this always makes me crazy just searching

45
00:03:10.240 --> 00:03:14.919
places like a lot of plate.
My biggest pet peeve taking a pet with

46
00:03:14.960 --> 00:03:16.319
you, a dog with you.
Um. A lot of places say that

47
00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:20.719
they're pet friendly, but they're not
really pet friendly because you can't keep the

48
00:03:20.759 --> 00:03:23.560
dog in the room and you know, or or the fee is ridiculous.

49
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:27.080
Like I get it, everybody,
I get it. Everyone needs to pay

50
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:30.319
a fee because you don't they don't
know if your dog's gonna, you know,

51
00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:32.560
have an accident or whatever. I
get that, But when a place

52
00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:36.960
is like, Okay, we're gonna
charge you one hundred dollars, which is

53
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:39.599
insane to me, and you have
to keep the dog in a crate or

54
00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:45.639
dogs can't be left unattended. This
has nothing to do with the interview.

55
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:47.599
It just makes me nuts, by
the way. So yeah, I think

56
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:52.599
it could be hard, especially for
Judge. Like I know my kiddos they

57
00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:54.319
do need to be three out of
my forty to be creative when we're not

58
00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:58.879
home, because you get into miss
Jeff right. But also like now they're

59
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:01.120
an unfamiliar place. No, I'm
seeing your create that I may or may

60
00:04:01.159 --> 00:04:06.080
not know and be familiar with and
be okay with. Right, So it's

61
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:10.719
good to know, like where you're
going if they do allow that, and

62
00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:14.560
if they don't. Another spot too, And I say this because the heart

63
00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:17.399
and palls. Most of us have
daycarees. Is there a doggy daycare in

64
00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:20.839
your area that maybe that you can
take them to if you aren't able to

65
00:04:20.879 --> 00:04:25.040
take your dog sight seeing with you? Right? Right? That's perfect too?

66
00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:27.800
Sure? Sure, I mean this
is all stuff I guess people should

67
00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:30.839
do. Before they head out on
vacation. Yes, yep, make sure

68
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:33.879
see what's around, see if you're
able to do you know, double check

69
00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:38.079
with your hotels if there's daycarees in
the area, right, you know you

70
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:41.199
never know, Yeah, you're right. So basically, you know, do

71
00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:44.079
your homework as if you were I
mean, they are our children, as

72
00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:47.120
if you were taking humans, human
children, not the four legged ones.

73
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:54.240
So do your homework before you go. So with the personal stuff, I

74
00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:58.160
know you said, you know,
blankets and bowls, and of course they're

75
00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:02.120
regular food. What else, I
mean, the regular leash, obviously,

76
00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:06.920
extra poop eggs. Is there anything
I'm missing that we need to bring them?

77
00:05:08.879 --> 00:05:12.519
He did say medications. I'm making
sure medication wise, especially like if

78
00:05:12.519 --> 00:05:15.480
your dog needs anxiety medications, make
sure you have enough for the entire trip

79
00:05:16.480 --> 00:05:19.519
and have that ready to go.
And don't call your veterinarian last minute,

80
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:24.800
because at least sometimes run out right
right, And what about if people are

81
00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:29.959
taking their dogs flying. I'm assuming
that because I'm thinking, of course having

82
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:31.079
the dog in the car with you, because that's what I do. But

83
00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:35.120
what if you take your dog or
your cat, Because it's also all of

84
00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:40.040
this stuff applies to cats, because
many of the pet friendly places they say,

85
00:05:40.120 --> 00:05:42.920
you know, we welcome both dogs
and cats or whatever. So what

86
00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:46.839
if you decide some of the listeners
are flying with their dogs or cats,

87
00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:50.199
are there are other things that they
should do besides what we talked about.

88
00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:55.959
Yes, so flying brings them a
whole new thing. And there's a second

89
00:05:55.959 --> 00:06:00.279
set to this. But like some
airlines require hel certivigts for them to fly,

90
00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:04.199
and if you're going air nationally,
there's absolutely health certiicates that you need

91
00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:08.680
to have filled out. But some
airlines do require health certificate filled out by

92
00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:13.800
your veterinarian that's done ten days or
less. Before these guys fly, you

93
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:15.240
want to make sure they're used to
be in a carrier because like they can't

94
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:18.519
be out in the open, especially
if you have a larger dog going into

95
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:21.879
cargo. You don't want his first
time in a crate or a carrier.

96
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:27.279
When you're going into cargo, your
dog is going to wig out. Dog

97
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:31.720
gonna do well for that. So
minding what carriers or crates they have to

98
00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:35.639
be in, and just know when
you're flying, especially now it's hot,

99
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:42.240
there are restrictions put on by the
airlines a certain temperatures either too hot or

100
00:06:42.279 --> 00:06:45.920
if you're flying Laurin time, too
cold. They will not fly your animal,

101
00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:47.639
no matter what. It doesn't mean. They don't even care if a

102
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:51.720
veterinarian has signed off on a temperature
change other than what they have listed.

103
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:55.800
They won't fly your pet. And
then you're going to figure out a way

104
00:06:55.920 --> 00:06:59.319
of getting your pet either home unless
you're going to stay home with them,

105
00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:02.879
or to your new destination. So, especially with the heat where you're traveling

106
00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:05.560
to, that could be a no
go as well. Yeah, and I

107
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:09.800
would think, I mean, it
seems like this summer we've been having heat

108
00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:13.120
wave after heat wave, and I
don't feel like that that's going to let

109
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:16.560
up anytime soon. So I almost
feel like it's probably not a great idea

110
00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:20.480
unless you have to fly with your
pet this summer. I don't know.

111
00:07:20.519 --> 00:07:24.720
I just feel like this summer just
seems to be like across the whole country,

112
00:07:24.879 --> 00:07:28.680
it's just so hot. It's been
bad. It's been really. The

113
00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:31.079
reason they say this, like your
dog has to sit on the tarmac for

114
00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:33.480
a little while, and they might
not be in a shady area, and

115
00:07:33.560 --> 00:07:36.319
even if they are, like if
you're in a human area, that's going

116
00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:40.199
to be rough on then, and
they have this small carrier or crate that

117
00:07:40.240 --> 00:07:43.879
they had to be in maybe not
the best ventilation to it, so that

118
00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:46.160
could be a problem. So definitely, you know, check with your airlines

119
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:50.560
on their temperature restrictions and things like
that, because that might change your plans

120
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:55.680
for what you're gonna do. Oh
sure, sure, yeah, I mean

121
00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:58.680
I wasn't even thinking about that,
but you're right. The dog or catta

122
00:07:58.759 --> 00:08:01.759
on the tarmac, that's I don't
know, honestly, personally, I would

123
00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:05.439
never fly with my pet just because
but that's just me, um, just

124
00:08:05.480 --> 00:08:09.000
because I just always hear horror stories. You know, Oh the it unlocked,

125
00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:13.240
the crate unlocked and the dog got
out. Oh great. Yeah,

126
00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:16.759
yeah, Like I have all big
dogs, So I would only flyin this

127
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:20.439
absolutely necessarily. Like if I'm doing
this huge move to like somewhere else,

128
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:24.399
be an airline flight, so I'm
in the same boat where my guys can't

129
00:08:24.399 --> 00:08:28.879
go on on the actual cabin.
So right, we're gonna we're gonna drive.

130
00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:31.519
Yeah, No, absolutely, that's
how I feel too. Yeah,

131
00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:33.120
because we have a big dog.
It's like, I just the thought of

132
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:37.120
it, it just it. I
don't think i'd be able to enjoy myself

133
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:39.200
because I'd be too freaked out that
the worst that could happen would happen.

134
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:43.960
I know that's being a worry war
but still, just because stuff always happens,

135
00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:48.440
you know, and you can't see
them. You can't see them,

136
00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:50.720
and it's out of your control,
you know. Ye, yeah, and

137
00:08:50.799 --> 00:08:56.000
that's the thing. So m these
are all very good. But let's also

138
00:08:56.200 --> 00:08:58.440
I mean, because I know this
was always in the front of my head

139
00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:03.440
and it makes me nuts time of
year, leaving your pets in a car.

140
00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:07.360
I know people say, yeah,
it's all right, and I know

141
00:09:07.399 --> 00:09:09.399
people like, oh, but I'm
only going to be in and out in

142
00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:13.759
a minute. But tell let's tell, let's freak everyone out. Tell them

143
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:20.440
how many seconds it takes minutes before
you start to really damage your dog or

144
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:24.600
cat in a car. I mean
a minute or two, not even those

145
00:09:24.639 --> 00:09:26.720
cars can get heart really fast.
And let me tell you, the worst

146
00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:31.679
emergency we see are those dogs that
are overheated or the cats that are overheated,

147
00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:37.279
because honestly, their body just starts
to shut down. And there's a

148
00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:39.200
lot of times we can't do anything
about it, no matter how much we

149
00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:43.480
try to intervene and cool them down
and get it. You get your body

150
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:46.879
to that certain temperature for so long
and there's just there's no saving them,

151
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:50.679
right, and it's so preventable,
Like we will be in the back crying

152
00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:54.519
because we want to save this pet
and we just can't and it could have

153
00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:58.799
just not happened. Yeah, it's
awesome. And the biggest thing too,

154
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:03.320
people don't remember because I had this
actually come in as an emergency, is

155
00:10:03.519 --> 00:10:05.919
um, you know, we have
those sevs. I have like the second

156
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:09.000
row seat, in the third row
seat, and then you have the trunk

157
00:10:09.039 --> 00:10:13.519
space sometimes where you have our your
pets and you gotta be mindful of the

158
00:10:13.559 --> 00:10:16.080
heat throughout your car. Because I
had an emergency come in. Where was

159
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:20.519
the family traveling in the car with
their dog and they you know, their

160
00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:24.039
kids were in the second seat and
then they had that huge open space.

161
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:28.039
They took their third row seat out
and had a bed for their dog.

162
00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:31.919
Their dog got overheated in the back
and she stuffered heat stroke because they didn't

163
00:10:31.919 --> 00:10:35.120
realize while that was cool for them
at the front, those vents thro all

164
00:10:35.200 --> 00:10:37.639
towards the front, the dog wasn't
getting that coolness in the back and she

165
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:43.039
went into you know, heat exhaustion
and heat stroke and suffered unfortunately, suffered

166
00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:46.639
the same fate as a kid locked
in the car. We weren't able to

167
00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:50.240
save her. And they were devastated. They had done everything they thought right

168
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:56.240
book forgot about the air event flow. You want to be very mindful of

169
00:10:56.240 --> 00:11:01.159
that. Yeah, they it broke
my heart. It looks sure, I'm

170
00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:05.919
sure. And they probably felt awful
because they they thought they got everything covered.

171
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:09.960
They and yeah, yeah, well
these are they were. They were

172
00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:13.720
devastated. So like I want people
to think about things like that too,

173
00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:16.919
so you're not the next person coming
in going, oh my god, I

174
00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:20.320
had it right and I didn't have
it right right right right, And it

175
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:24.159
just and it takes such a short
amount of time, you know. Yeah,

176
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:28.320
yeah, if they're older, if
they're overweight, if they're short nosed

177
00:11:28.360 --> 00:11:33.960
like hugs or yeah, yeah,
for sure, for sure. And I

178
00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:35.919
guess, like I mean, for
anything else, like you just said,

179
00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:41.080
I think it's just also using common
sense. I mean, if you're walking,

180
00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:46.200
like if you take your dog somewhere
on vacation or just walking somewhere and

181
00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:50.320
you're hot and you want to get
a drink of water, most likely your

182
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:54.519
dog is gonna be hot too,
you know. I yeah, and so

183
00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:58.159
I mean, I guess it's it's
a common thing. You should common sense

184
00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:01.799
to bring water. But I think
people need to, like we all need

185
00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:05.639
to just pay pay more attention.
Like you went to your kids. You

186
00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:09.240
know, if your kid's hot,
you're gonna know if your kid is sweating

187
00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:11.759
and hot. And dogs aren't sweating, they're panting, and I think it's

188
00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:16.759
important right that we pay attention to
that as well. Yep, see how

189
00:12:16.759 --> 00:12:18.759
they're doing. And if someone's closer
to the back, you know, throw

190
00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:22.120
your hands back there and see is
it really hot that there is? It

191
00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:26.039
feels still nice and cool, uncomfortable
to you or like I mean, even

192
00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:28.320
when my children are in the car, my human children in the car,

193
00:12:28.480 --> 00:12:33.519
like I blast acy higher and like
freeze myself up front. No, they're

194
00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:35.159
getting better airflow in the back for
me, right, No, No,

195
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:39.279
it's true. I I you know, I hate air conditioning, but because

196
00:12:39.279 --> 00:12:41.000
of my dog, and you're right, I freeze in my car so that

197
00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:46.519
he's comfortable in the back. Ye, No, it's true. I mean

198
00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:48.440
in a hoodie in the front and
they're taint out. Yeah, exactly,

199
00:12:48.759 --> 00:12:52.759
exactly. You're right. It's like
people must think like that, you know,

200
00:12:52.799 --> 00:12:56.759
we're crazy because we look like it's
winter, Like wait, it's summer.

201
00:12:56.799 --> 00:13:00.600
Why you guys dressed like that?
Oh? Because our animals are need

202
00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:05.559
to be called there. They gotta
make sure we're good. Yeah, absolutely

203
00:13:05.639 --> 00:13:09.120
no, But these are great,
great tips and reminders. I mean,

204
00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:11.799
you know, from the get go
with the emergency hospital you've given me,

205
00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:16.840
and we talked so often and I'm
still missing points, which is really funny.

206
00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:20.240
So and I guess, like we
said, so, all of these

207
00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:26.360
tips are also very important for cats
too as well as dogs, as people

208
00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:28.879
do travel and take their cats with
them. Is that correct? Yep?

209
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:33.080
Absolutely, I have people to travel
and from a bench too, you know,

210
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:35.519
same thing, a piser and you
know, making sure you have all

211
00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:39.279
your vaccines, your medications until make
sure they're comfortable in that carrier. Not

212
00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:43.639
all cats are, you know,
but make sure it's a nice, safe

213
00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:46.559
carrier for them. I could say, if you have the mess side of

214
00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:50.759
carriers, careful. My cat managed
to do it, or he crawled enough

215
00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:52.399
at the mess then you need a
hole. But he was able to pop

216
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:56.399
his head out of him and try
to escape. Wow, so well you

217
00:13:56.480 --> 00:14:03.240
sure your cat's not like mine a
little. He's like people. He's very

218
00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:09.519
smart. He's very smart. That
is, so just be mindful of that.

219
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:11.639
And the same thing with if they're
in the car with you and you

220
00:14:11.679 --> 00:14:13.279
know your cat small, you know, but don't let them out in the

221
00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:16.200
loose, like keep them in their
terrier because you know, God forbid,

222
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:20.559
they get freaked out when they jump
on your face or something you can't see,

223
00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:22.120
or they go into the brake.
They're small enough to sit them on

224
00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:26.799
the brake pedals, so then you're
either you know, stomping your cat while

225
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:28.600
you're hit the brakes, or you're
crashing into something because you don't want to

226
00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:31.960
stomp your cat, right right,
right, no, no, that's all.

227
00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:35.639
These are all very very valid points. Um in the worst case scenario,

228
00:14:35.720 --> 00:14:39.559
I know this is a horrible thing, but it does happen. Just

229
00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:43.639
say you're on vacation and say your
dog gets awf leash, Like, what's

230
00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:48.360
the first thing you should do?
Is there a first thing to do?

231
00:14:48.559 --> 00:14:50.879
The biggest thing? You know,
your your instinct is to like run and

232
00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:56.000
chase them like that is such a
fun game for them. They're like Mummy's

233
00:14:56.039 --> 00:14:58.279
chasing me. Excellent and they're gonna
keep running, So you want to try,

234
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:01.240
like if you can send someone back
to like grab the food bag or

235
00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:05.440
whatnot and start shaking the food bag
and hopefully they're like, oh they have

236
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:09.279
my food or my trees, right, you know, walk steadily towards where

237
00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:13.720
they're going. Would try like fight
that urge to run after them and just

238
00:15:13.799 --> 00:15:18.159
keep calling their name and stuff like
that. Hopefully you're traveling, you know,

239
00:15:18.279 --> 00:15:22.320
in this worst case scenario, if
your dogs microchips or cat microchips,

240
00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:26.519
or if they have a collar on
with an ID tag on, hopefully that

241
00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:28.440
stays on them. So that way, whoever does get a hold of them.

242
00:15:28.440 --> 00:15:31.960
If you can't and they get further
away than you intend, they at

243
00:15:33.000 --> 00:15:35.679
least give you a call and so
you can come get them. Sure,

244
00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:39.440
And you just remind me of something
else, And I would think, because

245
00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:41.080
I know, like at night,
I take my dog's collar off just so

246
00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:43.799
I forget, oh, well,
he's sleeping, but probably on vacation,

247
00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:48.320
it's smart to keep the collars on
just in case, right, Yeah,

248
00:15:48.440 --> 00:15:50.200
just in case, you know,
have someone like walks near your room,

249
00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:54.360
a windows open that you weren't expecting, things like that because they're in an

250
00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:58.240
unfamiliar environment. If you're a hotel
and the fire alarm goes off and he's

251
00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:03.879
like, you're unsimilar situation, already
in the jar, getting woken up and

252
00:16:03.960 --> 00:16:07.320
don't know what's going on. It's
easy to snag them if the collars already

253
00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:10.000
on right, right, right,
No, no, these are all you

254
00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:12.799
know, these are all great tips
that most of us aren't thinking about.

255
00:16:12.879 --> 00:16:17.480
