Whether you're traveling by car, train or airplane, going the distance with dogs can add another complicated layer to your trip. Sure, plenty of dogs do fine in the air and don't experience motion sickness in the car, but a traveling pup certainly adds more to the equation — more packing (their food, toys, beds and more), more potty breaks and more things to, well, carry.
Enter the Eventur Travel Kennel by Diggs. This recent innovation is the world's first inflatable travel crate for dogs and it's currently available for pre-order. Since it's inflatable, it's light to carry, portable and it deflates easily when not in use.

This travel kennel for dogs has ventilated mesh windows, which offer great breathability. The kennel itself is, in fact, inflatable as it is made of PVC and drop-stitch technology that allows it to effectively withstand everything from claw punctures and scratches to chewing. The crate comes in three sizes (small, medium and large) for dogs up to 30, 55 and 80 pounds.
