Over the years I have made several 1,200 mile trips with a dog in the car. He slept most of the time. Of course he could not be left in the car at meal stops, so meals were from fast food drive throughs. There are lots of "pet friendly" motels these days.
totally. We've travelled thousands of miles over the years with our dogs. Stopped at a lot of rest stops, ate at a lot of fast food places, stayed at a lot of pet friendly motels, even slept in our vehicles a couple of single nights at a time on our trips moving here.

Dogs are not for everyone; you are committing to taking care of them when you take them on. We committed to doing that many years ago.
