We took our 10 year old dog, Ruckus, on his first trip for Thanksgiving this year. He went with us by car on a 500 mile adventure from Atlanta, Georgia to Florida. He's not much of a car rider so we rarely take him in the car so I called the vet and got some sedatives (1 for him and 2 for me! LOL!) We spent a week at my mother's and also spent some time at my brother's in Orlando. We think Ruckus loved his big adventure...he had lots of people to show him attention and he ate it up!
