And on that note:  How successful are you at finding places for your dog to
relieve on long train rides?
When I've taken the train and had a long stop, I had a lot of trouble
finding places or getting anyone to help me find one.

Cordially,

Dan W. and Carter

Hi Jennifer,

I've taken long train trips in the past and usually my dog sleeps a lot, or
if I know they'd enjoy looking out; I take my dog and a book to the
observation car where my dog watches out the window and I read.  I try and
break up the boredom a bit by playing some quiet games such as asking my dog
to target my fist.  I may also bring a chew bone or bully stick for my girl
to enjoy.
I also work my dog to the dining car, to the restroom and take her out to
relieve during long stops where I also let her stretch her legs.
