Harlan

We're driving to my parents' house for the holidays — 6 hour drive. Any tips for Grover?

At 8 months, Grover should do fine on a 6-hour drive. Stop every 2 hours for a quick walk and water break. Bring his favorite blanket or toy for the crate — something familiar helps.

Should I feed him before or during the drive?

Feed him a light meal 3-4 hours before you leave — a full stomach and a long car ride can lead to an upset tummy. Bring some treats for the road but save his normal meal for when you arrive.

Good call. We leave Saturday morning

Have a great trip! I'll check in Saturday evening to see how Grover handled the drive.

Grooming & coat care

How often should you brush a golden retriever? When does a poodle need a haircut? Do short-haired cats need grooming at all? It depends on the breed, and Harlan knows yours.

Harlan can suggest a grooming schedule based on your pet's coat type and remind you when it's time for the next appointment.

Exercise & enrichment

Not sure if your pet is getting enough exercise? Wondering what to do on a rainy day? Harlan can suggest activities based on your pet's breed, age, and energy level.

Puzzle toys, nose work, new walking routes, indoor games — there's more to keeping a pet happy than just the daily walk.

Travel & seasonal tips

Road trips, boarding, hot pavement in summer, holiday hazards — the stuff that comes up throughout the year. Harlan can share timely suggestions based on the season and what you've got going on.

Planning a trip? Just tell Harlan and get tips for making it smooth for your pet — whether they're coming with you or staying behind.
