A first of its kind travel guide for human-animal partnerships
Service animals have opened up amazing new worlds of adventure for travelers with disabilities. Henry Kisor and Christine Goodier provide a narrative guidebook full of essential information and salted with personal, hands-on stories of life on the road. As the travel-savvy human companions of Trooper (Kisor's miniature schnauzer/poodle cross) and Raylene (Goodier's black Labrador), the authors share experiences from packing for your animal partner to enjoying the animal-friendly rides at Disneyland. A section of easy-to-use pages offers travelers handy checklists, primers on import regulations and corporate policies, quick advice for emergencies, and other information.
Practical and long overdue, Traveling with Service Animals provides any human-animal partnership with a handbook for exploring the world.
