These are our two dogs who will be riding with us.
Buddy the Dog is the darker one, he is 10. Hank aka Pink is just 18 months. No clue for sure what either of them are. Buddy the dog has some greyhound and some collie features. Hank looks like a really tall fox terrier, but when he puts his ears down, it rounds out his head and he looks like a miniature pit bull. Both are rescues. Both have their quirks and are complete opposites in personalities. They both sleep with us in the bed, which is why we need a king size bed.
Buddy is local, born and raised Minnesota. When he wants something, he puts his head on your leg and keeps moving around till he gets your attention. He is happy with a short walk each day, or a short run around the back yard. He likes things calm and routine and is terribly afraid of lightening, camera flashes and fireworks.
Hank was found in a swamp on Caye Caulker in Belize covered with mange and absolutely no hair. A friend who lives down there nursed him back to health, then sent him up with some other friends who had been down there to visit. He is totally New York. When he wants something, he is all over you, poking you with his nose, whining if you don't respond. To him, life is a grand adventure and he goes at things full speed. He has no fear, except fly swatters for some reason.
I don't worry much about Hank because he is so happy go lucky. But I worry about Buddy. On a trip up north, he didn't do too well in the hotel for the first couple of days. One thing I'm hoping, is that in the RV, he will be more at home. I do plan on spending time in it when we first get it, so he can get used to it a little at a time. Any other suggestions? Anyone else try this and did it work?
