Our New Traveling Companion

You remember a month or so ago we lost Zoe, the Wonder Dog to cancer.  She traveled all over the place with us in the Journey, every time I brought it to the house to load up for a trip, she sat by the front door waiting for her chance to run out and climb aboard.

She loved to sit up front between me and Marti and look out the Journey's windshield.


Even though she sometimes could drive us crazy and make us wonder what she would get into next, she was a fixture in the Journey.  Now we felt empty.

So, we decided that it was time to move on and get a new traveling companion.


Umm, not this guy...this little guy!


We're not sure what breed he is, he has some pug in him.  But those eyes, one look and we knew he'd have to come home with us.


We're sure he's going to be a great companion for us and we won't have as many issues with him like we did with Zoe.  Remember the baths I had to give Zoe when she'd roll in "things" while we were out camping?


We know we won't have those kind of problems with our new little guy because...


...the tag on his bottom says he can be machine washed on the gentle cycle.

So, anybody have a good name for our new little friend?

Thanks for visiting and feel free to leave a comment.

  2. How about “stinkers”, just like his parents. You had both Ellie and I on that one. We sure laughed though once we saw the trick.

  15. You sucked me in for sure. But I have to say at least you won't have problems with this pet in the National Parks which often have limited trails on which you can bring them. This guy you can take anywhere you like. And he'll be way easy on your budget since he won't eat much!
