“No Pet Left Behind: The Sherpa Guide for Traveling With Your Best Friend” ($16.99, Thomas Nelson) is a simple, easy-to-use guide for those who will not be denied when it comes to taking their furry friend along. After all, as the woman sitting next to me on a recent flight, her Chihuahua stuffed down into the bottom front of her hoodie like an extra stomach (no, that’s not allowed, by the way), put it, “This trip just wouldn’t be the same without my best buddy.” That said, there are some considerations, such as, hey, is the person next to you on the plane allergic? (I’m not, and she was considerate enough to ask.) Author Gayle Martz, with Delilah Smittle, also runs through what to do if your pet gets lost or sick, how to handle road trips, offers recommendations for pet-friendly lodgings and other travel options and includes chapters on more exotic pets such as birds and rabbits.
