road trip with dog, packing list from our trip to Chiang Rai

Mickey and I drove from Nimman to Chiang Rai last month. It takes about four hours, and I learned what to bring for a dog in the car. Water is the most important. Bring more than you think, and a collapsible bowl. Also towels for wet paws and a small mat. Medicine in a bag, with the vet letter in case the police stop us at a checkpoint. My prescription and his prescription are kept together. Food in small bags, not the whole bag. Keep the car cool, or at least not in the sun. Last thing is a leash that does not pull on the seat belt.
