Holidays with a Dog
The Baltic Sea is a rewarding holiday destination at any time of year. This naturally applies to anyone who has a pet to care for at home, too. Dogs have the advantage that, in some circumstances, they can come along on a Baltic Sea holiday. That is why, before the holiday season, many dog owners decide in favour of holidaying together at the Baltic Sea rather than placing their four-legged friend in a boarding kennel. This is probably the ideal solution for both, especially as there are an increasing number of options offered by tourist accommodation providers—including along the Baltic coast.

Rules for holidays with a dog
If you follow a few basic rules when preparing for your trip and while travelling, you won't regret deciding to take your dog on holiday to the Baltic Sea. It is a good idea not to let your dog watch you pack, so as not to make it anxious. Making sure there is enough water and giving your dog opportunities to move around during the journey by car or train is, of course, essential. When travelling abroad, start by carefully checking the regulations for bringing dogs into the country to avoid any unpleasant surprises. Even the much-loved pastime of romping on the Baltic Sea beach is often subject to certain local or seasonal restrictions.
Dog-friendly holiday accommodation
Hotels, guesthouses and holiday complexes that cater exclusively to dogs or other pets are naturally ideal for anyone holidaying with a dog, but they are rather rare. However, an increasing number of holiday accommodation providers make it possible and easier to bring dogs by providing suitable facilities or equipment. To help you choose your holiday destination, we present providers along the Baltic coast that are equipped to accommodate dogs or even specialise in doing so.
