Adventures in an RV: A Dog’s Tale

Adventures in an RV - A Dog's Tale book

Meet Rocket, a smiling Golden Retriever, along with his sidekick, Cassie, the stoic, three-legged cat. Together with their “parents,” they travel endless miles crisscrossing the nation in an RV they have christened “Harvey.”

Through his keenly observant eyes, Rocket shares his daily observations and adventures by sending postcards along the way to his fur buddies. Funny, and filled with love, this is a good read for anyone who loves pets or has traveled with them by car or RV. Or perhaps are considering doing so! Order from Amazon.

  • Tinioey Portable Dirty Paw Washer: Use the Tinioey dog foot washer to clean your dog’s paws. Just put the muddy paw into the cup and twist a few turns and keep mud from getting in your RV!

Oh, yeah? There’s one in the picture of the hanging cat tree. And some of the products mentioned cats, anyway. Maybe all the dogs scared them away. Whatever… Have a good evening/night, David. 😀 –Diane at RVtravel.com

Thank you, RV Travel (Cheri? and Diane)! 🙂 We do have cameras in the RV to watch dog #3 (Weagle) when we are elsewhere. We also can remotely monitor the outside and inside temperatures at the RV. If necessary, we can turn on the heat or the air conditioning, as needed. Thanks again and safe travels! 🙂
