There, animals mostly have the same freedom as humans to move through European Union borders without needing extra documentation, which limits the hassle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While backpacking in Europe with your dog is a rewarding experience, there\u2019s a lot to prepare and consider. If you\u2019re willing to pull out all the stops for an adventure with your furry friend, read on to find out what you\u2019ll need to make it happen. <\/p>\n\n\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/pet-friendly-travel-options\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pet-Friendly Travel Options: Your Complete Guide<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What to consider before you go<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is your dog suited for a long period of travel?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Travelling can be hard on your dog, so it\u2019s important to consider the toll that your trip will take on your pup. Depending on their temperament and lifestyle, your dog might not be suited to all the different climates and unfamiliar settings outside of their routine that come with travel. Only consider bringing them along if you\u2019re confident they will be able to handle those changing conditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where you\u2019ll be flying to and departing from<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>With the proper paperwork, flying into Europe is not complicated, but take note of your dog\u2019s breed. Some breeds that are considered \u201cdangerous\u201d by certain countries will face restrictions or be denied entry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it\u2019s unfortunate that such classifications exist, you\u2019ll want to be prepared so that you don\u2019t run into a situation where you need to turn back upon arrival. Upon arriving back home after your trip, there may be things to consider as well. Some countries, like Australia, New Zealand, and Japan, require a period of quarantine upon arrival to make sure your dog hasn\u2019t contracted any contagious illnesses abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"453\" height=\"680\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/puppy.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27506 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/puppy.jpeg 453w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/puppy-434x651.jpeg 434w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 453px) 100vw, 453px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 453px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 453\/680;\" \/><figcaption>It will take a little planning to travel with your pup, but it will lead to moments like this | <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/Gygoe7BWjLo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"\u00a9 Bernard Hermant\/Unsplash (opens in a new tab)\">\u00a9 Bernard Hermant\/Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to prepare for backpacking with your dog in Europe <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prepare your paperwork <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a ton of preparation that you\u2019ll need to do if you want to travel with your dog. Depending on the length of your stay in the EU, you\u2019ll need to prepare an EU health certificate or an EU pet passport that documents your pet\u2019s health records. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pay attention to timing, as some requirements come with tight timelines that may affect the validity of your paperwork, and make sure that your documents are the right ones for the country of landing in the EU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visit the vet <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Along with a general check at your dog\u2019s veterinarian to ensure that your pet is in good health to travel, you should also coordinate with your vet to make sure your furry friend is microchipped and has all the vaccinations and treatments it needs for entry into Europe. Some EU countries, like Finland, Norway, and Malta, require a worming treatment to be done by a vet before entry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"453\" height=\"566\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/woman-withdog-1.jpeg\" alt=\"woman petting dog in front of an old building \" class=\"wp-image-27518 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/woman-withdog-1.jpeg 453w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/woman-withdog-1-434x542.jpeg 434w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 453px) 100vw, 453px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 453px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 453\/566;\" \/><figcaption>As long as you do your homework, you can travel with ease in Europe with your dog | <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/YsUskzVmmNc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"\u00a9 Spencer Davis\/Unsplash (opens in a new tab)\">\u00a9 Spencer Davis\/Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plan your itinerary <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Travelling with your dog means less flexibility than you would otherwise have. Once you\u2019ve got all the paperwork done, you\u2019ll need to carefully plan your itinerary to ensure that your accommodations are pet-friendly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might also want to take note of whether your dog\u2019s preferred type of food can be purchased nearby, and whether there are options available to you if you run into medical emergencies abroad. Many museums and tourist attractions in even the most dog-friendly cities won\u2019t allow dogs, so take that into account when planning your trips. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, when booking your flight, research each airline\u2019s pet policies to see whether your pup will be able to fly with you in the cabin or if they\u2019ll be required to fly in the hold. <\/p>\n\n\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/the-20-most-pet-friendly-beaches-ranked\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The 29 Most Pet-Friendly Beaches, Ranked<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to pack<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to packing for a trip with your dog, there\u2019s a lot to think about, too! There\u2019s a long list of things that will make your dog more comfortable on the road, and it\u2019s just as important to pack for their needs as it is for your own \u2013 if not more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bringing a harness, leash, and carrier are a must, as well as a collar with detailed contact information in the case of any emergencies. Depending on your dog\u2019s breed and temperament, you might want to bring a muzzle as well, as some places might require it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pack some outfits for your dog to keep it warm in case of wet or cold weather, and a small towel and grooming essentials to freshen them up after long days of exploring. Bring a good amount of your dog\u2019s preferred food to help them adjust and prevent them from getting an upset stomach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having some of your dog\u2019s favourite things, like bowls and toys, will help comfort them and make things feel more familiar. And while plastic bags and poop bags are probably readily available in Europe, dog owners know that carrying a few extra will always come in handy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to fly with a dog <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of the trickiest parts of travelling with your pet, and it\u2019s incredibly important to do your research here. Consider the airline that you\u2019re flying with, and inquire about their track records and policies regarding pets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Book a direct flight to make sure your travel time is as short as possible without transfers. When it comes to flying, having your dog with you in the cabin is ideal, but depending on the airline\u2019s requirements and your dog\u2019s size, they will need to be transported in the cargo or the hold. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/travelling-with-your-dog-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"man walking on pathway nearby sea with a dog \" class=\"wp-image-27511 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/travelling-with-your-dog-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/travelling-with-your-dog-900x600.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/travelling-with-your-dog-434x289.jpeg 434w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/travelling-with-your-dog-868x579.jpeg 868w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/travelling-with-your-dog.jpeg 1050w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" \/><figcaption>Prepare for your backpacking trip to Europe with our handy guide | <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"\u00a9 Anastasia Petrova\/Unsplash (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/6886qBb57L4\" target=\"_blank\">\u00a9 Anastasia Petrova\/Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While it\u2019s important to remember that many animals are transported this way every day without any issues, having them fly on their own can be anxiety-inducing for you and hard for your pet. If your dog needs to be flown in the hold or the cargo, feed them at least a few hours before the flight so that they will have time to relieve themselves before the flight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the weeks leading up to the flight, train your pet in a cargo crate and make sure your pet will be comfortable being alone inside for the duration of the flight. Never sedate your pet before a flight, and if your dog is a brachycephalic breed, it might best to avoid flying if they\u2019re not allowed in the cabin, as these snub-nosed breeds have trouble breathing in high altitudes. <\/p>\n\n\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/pet-friendly-international-airlines-ranked-top-20\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The 20 Most Pet-Friendly International Airlines Ranked<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to go in Europe <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of Europe loves dogs, and will happily welcome your furry friend. <a href=\"\/d\/germany?utm_medium=referal&amp;utm_source=days-to-come&amp;utm_campaign=clicks-on-internal-links\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Germany<\/a>, <a href=\"\/d\/germany?utm_medium=referal&amp;utm_source=days-to-come&amp;utm_campaign=clicks-on-internal-links\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">France,<\/a> and <a href=\"\/d\/italy\">Italy<\/a> are three of the most dog-friendly countries in Europe, with a great selection of accommodation and the option of bringing your dog with you in most restaurants, stores, and public transportation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Go for a walk in one of Berlin\u2019s many parks, most of which welcome dogs, or you can even visit the famous archaeological site of Pompeii with your pup in tow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"\/d\/austria?utm_medium=referal&amp;utm_source=days-to-come&amp;utm_campaign=clicks-on-internal-links\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Austria<\/a>, Belgium, Prague, Latvia and the Netherlands are also quite dog-friendly, charging small fees for public transportation and allowing them in most public spaces.
