Take the train.
A city break or a visit to friends. Tickets, space on board and connections are all part of planning a rail journey with a dog.
A weekend away, a visit to friends, a longer trip. It’s good to bring your dog along when you can.
We give them care and companionship; they can bring a sense of calm and balance to our lives. There’s something in it for both of us.
A little planning helps make room for more of those shared moments.
A personal project by Philippe, with Bailey along for the ride.

Life is short, and a dog’s life is shorter still. We can’t make it last forever, but we can make room for more of the good bits: a walk, a weekend away, a change of scenery. Nothing extraordinary. Just time well spent, together.
Different journeys, different things to think about. This project starts with a simple question: how can bringing your dog fit into your plans?
A city break or a visit to friends. Tickets, space on board and connections are all part of planning a rail journey with a dog.
For longer distances, flying raises its own questions: airline policies, travel arrangements and whether the journey makes sense for your dog.
A short escape or a longer road trip. Think about a comfortable setup, stops along the way and a pace that leaves room to enjoy the journey.

Bailey is my golden retriever. He enjoys long walks, meeting other dogs and a nap in the sun.
I like being able to include him in my plans when it works — whether that’s a day out, seeing friends or going away. It’s a pleasure to share those moments, and travelling with a dog takes a bit of thought.
That’s the starting point for Stay with Bailey: exploring the practical side of taking a dog along, with room for the people, places and experiences that make a trip worth taking.
