TUCSON SPECIFIC PET
TRAVEL TIPSDue to Tucson's
tendency to have hot temperatures and low humidity throughout the year please take note of the following.
A study from Stanford University showed that even on pretty cool days,
such as 72 degrees, the internal temperature of a car will rise quickly to 116 degrees within just 60 minutes.
Keeping
the windows open a crack does not work, it will barely slow the heat from
rising at all.
Always carry water and pet bowl wherever you are traveling, even if it is around town.
Never leave your pet locked or unattended in the car. Tucsonans will
call the police to report you for abuse due to the unfortunate amount of deaths that occur each year from this.
Please be aware that you CAN actually fry a egg
on the sidewalk on our hottest days. Trust me on this one. I have unfortunately watched my friends pets
do the "high step" after stupidly letting them jump in the back of a truck bed that had been sitting in the sun
or just letting them jump onto the pavement from the car. This is when you can actually justify the expense of buying
those cute little doggie booties that you have been secretly wanting for them.
Place carpets or non-slip mats in the back of SUV's. Pets should never
be in the back of an open truck or an uncooled camper. Keep them with you.
Tucson has a leash law that states that pets must be leashed at all times in public places
unless in a designated "Off Leash Dog Park". Consider hiring a "Pet Sitter",
call Beth at 631-8668. Your
pet should wear a special "vacation" identification tag in addition to its regular one. Write the pet's name, your
name, the person to contact at the destination, their phone number, a destination address, or that of a friend or relative.
