Are you looking for a pet friendly vacation in Northern Indiana? Then, look no more! Take It Easy log cabin has all the comforts of home and more, even allowing you to bring along the family pet. This 2 story cabin has 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and sleeps 6 comfortable. Plenty of trails to walk your pets and lots of outside nature to keep everyone entertained. Wesley and I always bring our Maltese dog (Rivera) and cat (Cassie) to our rental getaway retreat that views Lake Webster in North Webster, IN.

We want to make sure you and your beloved pets arrive safely and have a wonderful time at the our lakefront cottage so here are a few pet travel safety tips to consider:

1. Car trips can be hazardous to your pet. How many times have you seen a small dog sitting on the drivers lap, looking out the window? Or the cat lying on the rear shelf on the car? A sudden stop, or even an accident can send your pet flying.

2. A loose pet in a car can also escape if someone opens the door, forgetting that your pet is able to jump out before you can grab him or her. They make special harnesses for dogs like seat belts, and the cat-carrier can always be used to transport your cat safely. Of course, make sure the carrier is also secured to the back seat with a seat belt.

3. Many dogs and cats do not travel well in a car. Consider speaking with your vet about tranquilizers. If your pet gets car sick, consider travel-sickness pills. Again, check with your vet for recommendations and dosage.

4.There have been too many incidents of cats and dogs suffering from heatstroke after being left in a hot car. Leave at least two windows (for cross draft) open slightly to provide fresh air. You might consider one of those solar powered fans that fit in the window. The fan fits snugly in the window, the sun powers the fan, and air is circulate within your vehicle. However, we strongly recommend that you DON'T leave animals in the car in hot climates or during the warmer months, as even a short time in a hot vehicle can be injurious to your pet.

5. Check for Emergency Veterinary Clinics in the area prior to arriving
