travelling with a dog

Hi Lenni,
We travelled accross from Karratha to Cairns October/November last year with our Alaskan Malamute and didnt really have any problems, we used the Life Be In It "Holidaying with Dogs" book to find parks, but for most of it we tried to stay in the better road side stops, and there are a number of good books out now detailing these, of coarse you cant go into any of the National Parks but the couple of time we wanted to we found a pet sitter or kennel for the day.
Remember that this part of Australia is bad for ticks so keep up the tick prevention, we were lucky and didnt find one for the 2 months we were away.
If you need more info send me an email at jancas@wn.com.au

Be wary of camping on station properties. Some of them may use baits.

I found an excellent publication only the other week which I use in conjunction with the "Life Be In It" one. Much larger A4 format, only about 10 mm thich 128 pages but as the title "Bush Camping with Dogs" suggests, it gives you that alternative whereas the other book is mainly commercialized sites. $32.50 at Dymocks or have a look at www.femap.com.au/bushdogs
