The survey results find that 96.3% want to travel with their dogs, and 95.8% select a destination based on whether or not they can travel with their dogs.
87.2% said that they want to travel with their dogs even though destinations are limited, and 84.3% said that they want to travel with their dogs even though travel cost is higher.
The most-answered reason for traveling with pets is ‘to travel with dogs as a family member (87.5%),’ followed by ‘to have good memories with dogs (79.9%).’
