Holidays in a flat by the sea with a dog - only at On Holiday

Holidays are an opportunity for you to relax, but also for your dog. Not all resorts are hospitable to pets. Deciding on a seaside holiday in OnHoliday Apartments you are assured that your pet will be welcome. This is a place that is pet-friendly and prepared to welcome pets. They will find plenty of space to run around and feel right at home in the spacious flat. Remember that it's not just your comfort that counts, but also your pet's. Just like you in a cramped room, he too may feel overwhelmed by the lack of space.

A seaside holiday involves a long journey? - Prepare your dog for the road

If you are planning to go on holiday by car and the journey will take you at least two hours, prepare your dog well for it. You know him best, but it doesn't hurt to consult your vet before you leave, perhaps a first for your pet. He or she will certainly give you the necessary health advice for the holiday and the drive itself.

Obviously, by taking your own transport, you have more freedom to plan your route and stops. Also have your dog's physiological needs in mind. Take him out before the road so he can defecate, prepare water for him as he may feel thirsty during the journey.

If your dog is small, it can travel in a crate or carrier. If, on the other hand, it is a representative of a larger breed, make sure you have special safety belts for dogs. Remember that you may also receive a fine for failing to secure your pet.

Plan to transport your dog by public transport

If you decide to travel by train or bus, don't forget to buy a ticket for your pet. Even if it is properly behaved, according to the regulations, you must keep it on a leash and ensure that it has a muzzle. Otherwise, the conductor or driver may ask you to leave the vehicle. You may also transport your small dog in a cage or carrier, which will already be considered as a form of luggage.

On public transport, pets are not allowed to sit on seats, so it is best for your pooch to sit on your lap or on the floor. A cramped compartment can unfortunately prove to be an uncomfortable place for him, so it is advisable to choose a compartmentless carriage.

Your dog gets stressed too - keep him safe and calm

Just climbing up the steep or staircase of a train or bus can be a challenge for a dog. Add to that a shaky floor, crowds of people and mingling smells. Take dog treats with you to reward your pet for obedience and to de-stress him a little. In the latter case, his favourite toy will also help, as he will occupy himself during the journey and be calmer in the process. Getting there is only a fraction of the holiday, and then you have a pleasant holiday at the seaside.

Don't let holidays by the sea become a chore

Kolobrzeg, as a large and popular tourist destination, has guarded beaches to which it is forbidden to introduce dogs. They may disturb beachgoers who do not wish or are simply afraid of their presence. However, there will be places - on the eastern beach in the area of the Podczela i west beachwhere you are allowed to bring your pet. But don't be swept away by the sea madness when you want to spend time on the sun-baked sand. Don't leave him without the opportunity to hide in the shade, tied to a deckchair or umbrella. Remember that dogs cool themselves only by "gasping" and do not have the ability to sweat. They are therefore vulnerable to stroke and, like humans, need to drink a lot. If possible, allow him to cool down using a bath and also to run around. After all, he also wants to have a pleasant holiday by the sea.
