Helping your dog meet the van

We park as close as you are happy with, then give your dog a minute to look. There is no rush to step inside.

If you can, let them sniff the doorway on a loose lead. Bring the treats they already like. We keep the van cool, the radio off, and the door open.

You stay nearby for the hello. If your dog would rather wait, we wait. A short calm hello is a better first visit than a long one.
