A dog is a man’s best friend for a reason. Those of us who have pets, and dogs in particular, understand the solid bond and love that is felt between us and our pooch. That’s why, if you are going away on holiday for a short weekend or a long summer break, you want to take your dog with you, as they are part of the family too. Alongside the many other great reasons why you should consider long stay caravan pitches and a seaside holiday home in the UK, enjoying a dog-friendly caravan park with your pet is another big plus point.
Why you should bring your dog with you on holiday
There are a few reasons why you should bring your dog with you to your caravan or seaside holiday home. Dog owners are often faced with the dilemma of what to do with their pets when going away on holiday for a week or two, or even for longer in the case of holiday homes. It’s difficult to take your pets with you abroad, but for a seaside park in the UK, why not take them with you?
Take away the worries
The biggest reason to take your pooch with you is to relieve all the stress and worry that you’ll feel should you leave your pet behind. It can be daunting for you (and for your dog) to be left with a dog sitter or in kennels for an extended period of time. Your dog will be happier with you and your family will be too!
Endless fantastic dog walks
Dog-friendly holiday parks and those close to the coast provide you with an endless supply of interesting dog walks. You might have exhausted all the possibilities near to your home by walking the dog every day. New walking paths to explore and beaches for your pet to get excited about is a great way to stay connected as a family. This is also a fantastic way to exercise and to maintain good levels of fitness and boost your mental health through daily dog walks. If you have your dog with you, you must go out each day for a walk.
An enjoyable experience
A happy dog means a happy dog owner, and a dog-friendly holiday park ensures you are fully present with your family and pet. If by taking your dog with you, you’ll have a much more enjoyable holiday experience it is a no-brainer really. For many dog owners, having your dog around is a calming experience, helping you to relax, and that’s exactly what holiday homes are for.
Make new friends easily
We all know what it’s like to get to know other dog walkers around our home, and this is also the case when you’re staying at a dog-friendly holiday park along the coast. You’ll see other families with dogs and others walking on the beach regularly. It’s a great way to meet new people, get talking, and make new connections.
There are so many great coastal retreats and walks to explore in the UK, especially when you consider the Northwest coast of England, with there being very attractive options like a Morecambe holiday home. If you have a dog and want to take them away with you on your next caravan holiday, it’s important to find dog-friendly holiday parks where they become part of the furniture and an integral part of your holiday, just as they are such a central part of your life back home. Why should your dog be left at home, with dog sitters or in kennels (that can cost you a fortune), when they can enjoy the coastal walks and holiday sea air along with the rest of the family?
