World Dog Day: This is how your four -legged friends travel safely and comfortably in the car!

On the occasion of the World Dog Day on October 10, Verti Versicherung AG points out how important it is to safely transport dogs in the car. Insurance professional Alexander Held explains that an unsecured dog in the vehicle not only endangers the well -being of the animal, but can also become a danger to other occupants. According to the law, a dog in the car is considered a load that must be sufficiently secured to avoid fines between 35 and 75 euros. Held recommends using dog straps, transport boxes or stable dog racks to safely transport the dog.

In addition to security, comfort also plays a major role. In warm temperatures, it is essential to carefully ventilate the car and breaks. Open windows should be avoided and small dogs need additional heat sources in the cold season. If an accident occurs, the Verti family protection "Kind & Kegel" ensures that passengers are also insured, including the costs of visiting veterinarian or animal pensions.
