With ticks and other disease-spreading insects proliferating throughout the United States, dog parents today are increasingly concerned about protecting themselves and their pups from Lyme disease. Lyme disease is commonly transmitted to dogs and humans through bites from blacklegged ticks and can cause serious symptoms and illness.

We partnered with the Cynthia Lopez, editor of Pet Life Today, on this important topic. Here is everything you need to know about Lyme Disease in dogs including preventative care, symptoms, and treatment options.

Last year Mike and I took our dachshund Django on our honeymoon to Europe. We had a great time with Django in France and Italy and highly recommend international pet travel when it's done right!

We outlined everything our friends and followers need to do to successfully bring their dog to Europe. But what about our international friends who want to take their pet to the USA? Well, guys, this post is for you!

Here is everything you need to do to take your dog to the USA.

Mike and I started planning our first pet-friendly trip to London, England a few weeks ago. We've already been to Europe with Django once and even got him a EU Pet Passport in Paris. Planning the trip to London should be easy, right? Wrong. We quickly discovered that no airline offers in-cabin pet travel to the United Kingdom; pets are only allowed to fly to the UK in the hold.

The good news is there are safe travel options for getting to the UK with your dog without having to put him or her in cargo. Here are the best travel options for taking your pet dog or cat to the UK.

Django and Chloe might be the world’s most well-traveled dogs. Hailing from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, these two pups are only 4 years old and have already bounced around several continents with parents Bruna and Luiz.

We met this globetrotting family last year while living in southern California. We caught up with Bruna again last week to hear about her most recent adventures around the world and get a few tips on traveling internationally with dogs.
