My work doesn't allow me dogs but I can't wait to have a travelling companion, and all the troubles that go along with them!

It takes a special person to handle four legged companions. I am not one of them. :/

My Siberian Husky used sit in the driver's seat when I went in to pick up supplies - it made for some funny pictures. You get used to it and don't even notice the nose prints after a while. Really, it's no different than all the hand prints, slobbery finger marks, stickers, crayons, etc. that kids apply to windows of your average soccer-mom-mobile...

I wouldn't trade my fur babies for anything. They have helped tremendously with "empty nest" syndrome. We have two shihtzu's and they go most places we go. Even work but we own our own business which makes that possible. They don't shed and are very well mannered. They are spoiled little dogs and we love them!

Our Fred has done it again this trip...he's fallen in love...but this time it's TWO cute little white girl poodles. He whimpers like a little puppy every time I take him for a walk by their campsites.

One of these days I'll manage to get a good pic of him to post here...in the meantime imagine a standard sized doxy with an Irish Setter coat.

We travel with our 5# Yorkie (Presley) and our 65# Boxer (Kelsey). Presley does not shed and gets groomed once a month. Kelsey does shed some and gets a bath twice a month. Presley rules the roost doing what he wants when he wants. Kelsey knows her place and sleeps on her dog bed. DW vacuums furniture and floors every other day when we are in the RV. We started RVing seven years ago to be able to take our pets with us. Now we RV because we love it and our able to enjoy our pets along with the RV

Never mind the dogs on the dashboard. What about the heat inthere? The owner should be closed inthere and left without water for half a day. We had few morons here do that to dogs. Last year a two year old boy died from heat while waiting for his "mommy". Dumb Mother&uckers

I have a lab who is 11 yrs old. My daughters talked me into fostering. The last foster turned out to be pregnant and delivered a litter of 5. So I had 7 dogs in my house for several months. Dear youngest daughter talked me into keeping one of the puppies. Now I'm what you call a foster failure. Thankfully both are excellent running partners which helps to keep me sane with 15 yr old and 20 yr old daughters.

We have travelled many miles with our boxer. He's 11 1/2 today and won't make it to Canadian spring for another trip but I'd take his shedding and nose prints over whining crying kids any day. He's never talked back, borrowed the car or asked for a loan.

Hi, we travel with a 5.5lb chihuahua. She loves to go everywhere with us and of course sleeps in the middle.

This is what happens when you stop at Wal Mart

Wouldn't think about leaving without our baby. She loves looking out the front window of the TT.

I love my boxer but he doesn't go camping with us! He stays home and guards the house. He does however "own" a Jeep that he lets me drive on the weekends and he slobbers ALL OVER IT while we travel around!

I love the RV for the dog. I do however hate dogs at campgrounds. This was my first weekend at a big busy campground, tons of dogs non stop barking all night, loud enough to drown out all the drunks partying. Super annoying. Being a dog person I get an occasional bark to alert, but anymore than that is out of control. Click image for larger version
