Pet Travel: Planning the Perfect Holiday for Your Furry Friend

From the beaches of the Mornington Peninsula — home to 67 dog-friendly beaches, more than anywhere else in Australia — to pet-accommodating caravan parks, hiking trails, and boutique stays, there’s no shortage of options for travelling with pets. But not every destination suits every animal, and knowing what makes a holiday enjoyable for your pet is key. In this week’s pet segment, we’re exploring how to choose a holiday that your furry family member will actually enjoy. With more Australians travelling with pets and more destinations going pet-friendly, it pays to know what to look for — and what pitfalls to avoid. We’re joined by our resident vet Andrew Cornwell, owner of Cardiff and Cameron Park Veterinary Hospitals, to share his expert advice on planning a happy, safe, and stress-free holiday for both you and your pet.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
