First time, PA to CA ride with a dog

Hey guys,

Riding across the U.S is on a bucket less list of ours and we don't have much experience in riding for a long time. So on the ride it's going to be my wife, my dog and I, riding from Pittsburgh PA (where we live now) to Southern CA (where we're originally from and going to move back). We plan to do the bike ride in a couple of years 2-3, so my question is what should we bring and what routes do you recommend for cross country rides for beginners and do you have a workout plan for us to get ready?

ACA for tour routes, getting a trailer for the dog? Training? Ride lots, then repeat.
