Travel tips (and treats) with Škoda and Dogs for Good
It’s official: dogs prefer electric cars
Less stress, less woof. A study carried out by TV vet Dr Scott Miller reveals that dogs are ‘more relaxed’ when travelling in an electric vehicle than a fuel-powered car.
Introducing Škoda’s canine partners
From sponsoring Crufts, the biggest and best dog show in the world, to supporting canine good causes, we show our love for dogs in so many ways. For example, we’ve already donated five cars to help Dogs for Good expand their fantastic work. Learn more about them and our other doggy partners below.
Our partnership with Dogs for Good
Dogs for Good is a charity bringing people and dogs together in extraordinary ways to help people with disabilities lead more fulfilling lives.
To do that, the Dogs for Good team is always out and about, whether it’s driving dogs to training sessions, taking them home to their volunteer families, visiting puppies in their volunteer homes or taking dogs to support sessions for people with a range of disabilities.
We’ve helped Dogs for Good reach out to even more people by donating five Škoda vehicles.
Happy to be Crufts official partner
All dog-lovers know Crufts, the biggest and best dog show in the world. As part of our commitment to dog-friendly vehicles, Škoda is delighted to continue our ongoing support for Crufts as official automotive partner.
The competition attracts over 20,000 dogs competing for the coveted title of Best in Show and visitors can also explore the trade show.
We’ll be there and would love to meet you.
Emergency Support
At Škoda we think a lot about how we can help our working four legged friends, and are a firm favourite with the emergency services, providing bespoke Škoda models such as the Škoda Kodiaq and Škoda Karoq – which all provide the pawfect environment for hard-working dogs.
