This way you will check if you have everything necessary and you won&#8217;t have undesirable surprises.</p>
<ol>
<li>Go to the vet. Before going in long journeys with your dog, it&#8217;s important to take it to the vet. You will have all the papers in order in case something happens when away, and you will have the chance to ask for some sickness pills in case your dog has a car-sickness problem. </li>
<li>
Pack for your pet. Just like you, your dog will need having its bedding, toys, brush, treats, dishes, medications, your pet&#8217;s food and a copy of the medical records. One of the most important things you cannot forget is having a dish and a bottle of water in the car with you. Your dog will get thirsty, and it maybe difficult to stop in the way. </li>
<li>
Before leaving, a great way to ensure your dog will be quiet and calm is making it tired. Make your dog run and play right before getting in the car. Your dog will be more laid-back when starting the trip. </li>
<li>If you can, take breaks. Your dog&#8217;s legs need stretching, and your dog needs potty breaks.</li>
<li>Finally, if you found something to make of this trip even more pleasant for you and your dog, just add it to the list. Remember all of this is not meant to be one more burden, but it&#8217;s meant to be a help for you and your pet. </li>
</ol>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://maltesedog.net/files/2007/08/maltese-pictures.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-142" src="http://maltesedog.net/files/2007/08/maltese-pictures-300x290.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="290" /></a>Also known as Bichon Maltaise, this little friend is originally from the Mediterranean region. Shrouded in antiquity, they are associated with the island of Malta, and it is believed they made their way to Europe through the Middle East with the immigration of nomadic tribes. It is also believed it was the Phoenicians who first introduce this breed in Malta, although statues of these animals have been found in the tombs of Egyptians pharaohs.</p>
<p>The Maltese is a small, elegant and vivacious dog, who has been a loving and affectionate companion for more than 28 centuries. They were popular amongst the royalty, possibly being the oldest toy breed, favoured by the nobles and aristocrats throughout the time.</p>
<p>They are known for having a long, silky and white hair. Itâ€™s faithful, smart and friendly with its owners and with others, and despite the reduced size, they have good health.<br />
With only 8-10 inches high and 6Â½-9 pounds, itâ€™s lovable and alert, and itâ€™s usual to hear them bark when something catches their eyes. Because they are also very protective of their owner, they may not only bark but also bite if animals or people are perceived as a threat.</p>
<p>Overall, this good-natured dog is one of the gentlest mannered of all little dogs, yet they are vigorous as well as lively and playful. Still, Maltese are good dogs for apartment life, and even better as a companion.</p>
