Plenty of us consider our pups part of the family and want to take them along when we head off on holidays too. So, we’ve found some luxury digs where dogs are the guest of honour! The QT on the GC’s Pup-Yeah package includes a special canine treat on arrival. Dogs up to 20 kilos are permitted in certain rooms and when it comes to dining – they’re totally catered for! The colourful and cool hotel has a dedicated doggy dining menu – and it’s decadent! Some steak tartare perhaps? Or would your fur baby prefer beef and kidney in bone broth or chicken and vegetables with gravy? Pooches are also pampered with a designer dog bed to sleep in.
Of course, there are some safety considerations before popping fido in the car and hitting the road for a holiday. RACQ’s Education Specialist Tiffany Boyd says it’s best to restrain our pets to keep them and the driver and passengers safe. A harness that attaches pets to the seatbelt system is the way to go. Alternatively, dogs travelling in wagon style vehicles should be behind a cargo barrier or in a travel crate. The crate is best for our feline friends too! Those products can be purchased from stores like Pet Stock and RACQ members can earn cashback rewards at of a whole swag of retailers when purchasing online. RACQ offers pet insurance too.
