Traveling with pets while feeding at Top Dog Bistro - mission possible!

  • Traveling with pets while feeding at Top Dog Bistro - mission possible!

    Dogs are becoming an integral part of our lives. We spend our free time more and more actively, intensive travel is becoming our norm, and traveling with dogs is also common. And this is where many of us have a dilemma - is it possible to feed our pets according to the BARF principle if we spend a lot of time traveling?

    Based on our many years of experience traveling with dogs to competitions all over Europe, we can confidently say that traveling and feeding with Top Dog Bistro food is mission possible! Week-long trips around Europe with 6-8 dogs are common for us. We will share our experience, which may inspire you too!

    So, how can frozen natural meat food stay fresh during a car trip?

    The most important thing is a thermos box and cooling elements.
    The first and most important thing you must have is a simple thermos box. You can buy it in most larger stores for 10-30 euros (the price depends on the size). Thanks to the walls that are resistant to temperature changes, the frozen food will stay fresh in it for a long time.
    Cooling elements are no less important. These are blue plastic bags that you can also buy in most stores. One will cost just a few euros (the price, again, depends on the size). Have a few of them. What are they for? They will help to freeze the low temperature in the cooling box. If you have the opportunity to put some of the cooling elements in the freezer and replace them with those in the box during the trip, your pet's food will stay fresh even longer.

    Another little secret from personal experience - choose a thermos box of the right size. The more it is filled, the longer it will remain at a low temperature.
    Yes, after a few days your pet's food will not be frozen, but it will still be cold and fresh!

    A freezer in the car - convenient, but not necessary
    Of course, you can choose an electric freezer, which will be enough to connect to the power outlet in the car. In this case, you will be completely calm for an unlimited time, but here are a few "buts":
    - Such a freezer costs a lot.
    - It takes up more space in the car.
    - It weighs a lot. The latter "but" is especially relevant when you have to carry food to the hotel and back often.

    What to do during a long trip?
