Ready to travel with your small dog?

 JACKSON GOES TO CAPE COD! No, this is not the title of a children's book. I'm excited to tell you about Jackson's first plane ride. We had a lovely time in this gorgeous area.

I went to Cape Cod for Thanksgiving to visit my son. He suggested I bring my beloved French Bulldog, Jackson. I was a bit dubious at first - but he was a surprisingly great traveler!
We flew on Delta Airlines, and they required a Health Certification from our vet to prove that Jackson was up-to-date on his shots. The veterinarian kindly gave me some "anxiety pills" and "motion sickness pills" that made a world of difference. Jackson was very calm and didn't make a sound! He happily snuggled in his carrier. We flew from Greensboro to LaGuardia airport, where Jackson loved the pet area. We then flew to Boston, and my son picked us up. 

If you haven't visited Cape Cod before, I would highly recommend it. We stayed in the Harwich Port area and visited nearby Chatham. Just look at the stunning views!
I had a wonderful and relaxing holiday. We took the dogs for walks on the beach. Jackson had a blast playing with his Frenchie "cousins"!
The town was all decked out for Christmas. We found lovely gifts at the local boutiques. There are several excellent restaurants in the area. We made the best of a rainy day by enjoying a movie at a cute little theater in Chatham.


If you are interested in visiting the Cape Cod area, I would be happy to tell you more. It's a delightful place to visit in all seasons.
