Suggestions for good human and pet tourists

On holiday in Elba with your dog: hints and suggestions

There are unwritten rules that can make your vacation with pets enjoyable, peaceful, and relaxing, much to the delight of your neighbors at the umbrella, apartment, or restaurant.

Every pet owner knows – or should know – their four-legged friend.

The rule is that if you have a lively dog who is particularly active, it’s a good idea to consider whether it’s appropriate to bring them to the beach or to crowded places where there are constant stimuli.

It’s better to guarantee them a nice, refreshing walk and then leave them to rest at home, in a cool place, for an appropriate amount of time (not all day, for instance). If you’re staying at a hotel, agree with the management on how and when to leave your pet in the room.

If, on the other hand, the dog is calm, the advice is always to choose – whether on the beach or in public places like restaurants, bars, ice cream parlors, etc. – a quiet and cool corner to keep the dog away from unwanted contact and ensure that everyone’s stay is pleasant and relaxing.

To avoid problems, it’s a good idea to bring your dog’s vaccination certificates with you. Also, make sure your dog is equipped with a leash and tag, where you can write your contact details.

We advise against long car trips, even on the island: your dog could suffer. Therefore, make frequent stops, or better yet, choose shorter routes. If possible, travel during cooler hours and ventilate the vehicle well. Allow your dog to stretch their legs regularly and give them fresh water to drink. Also, if you’re in a hotel, it’s better to use a fan or the fresh summer breeze from the window rather than air conditioning.

Make sure to ask the hotel, vacation home, or campsite staff if pets are welcome. Ask if there are services specifically for them. If you're renting a house, inquire whether there are dogs nearby, what their spaces are like, and if you need to keep them on a leash.

We also recommend bringing some of their personal items: whether it’s a blanket, a sheet, or a favorite toy. Don’t forget their food and water bowls. Try to maintain their feeding schedule, nap times, and walks.
