My friends! In this series of DOG FRIENDLY BRITAIN, I, Rocky the traveling bull terrier, will take you on journeys around the United Kingdom and show you adventures that you can take your dog in! On this latest adventure I revisit a small little piece of Essex that I had first seen back in 2016. Here’s a few cool snaps from that visit from three years ago. Now flash forward to now in 2019 and Danny and I found ourselves…
The Oldest City in America! Which one is that you ask? Well it is none other than St. Augustine in Florida, just as it says in the title. I had the pleasure of taking my four paws throughout this beautiful gem of a city. But, I must say that I also brought the English weather with me. On the way to St. Augustine lies a tourist attraction that caught our eye: Florida Citrus Center and Souvenir World. There’s tons of…
The journey of more than 2,000 miles across England and Scotland has come to its final destination: Bournemouth! (not pronounced as born mouth, rather born-muth)! Bournemouth was the first British town I’ve ever lived in. I remember having many memories of running on the beach, rolling around on the sand and staring in wonder at all the shirtless British people who acted like they’d never seen the sun before. But I’m getting a little distracted. We came here to cap…
I’m making my way to see the Queen! I’ve heard she’s at Windsor Castle! I’ve also heard she loves dogs so she will be delighted to see me! After all, no British road trip would be complete without a visit to this world famous castle, which is one of the Queen’s many homes! It’s also the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world…at least until they build the Rocky castle in the future, which will be based in England…
I’ve heard so many great things about the Cotswolds, but mostly I’ve heard about how that’s where many of the rich people in England live! Naturally, my human and I were curious about what exactly is so special about this place. As we last left off on our British Road trip, we touched down on the Lake District and spent a day there on a steamboat ride. After that we recharged our batteries at a hotel at Stoke-on-Trent, but we…
A STEAMBOAT ride across the Ullswater Lake Hi my friends it’s your favorite globe-trotting dog, Rocky the Traveller. After our amazing day at Glasgow we circled back down south and made a stop at a place that we’ve been wanting to see for a long time: The Lake District. As usual, my human booked us a hotel at the last possible moment and discovered an accommodation described as a “garden cabin”. We didn’t really read the description and saw…
Bull Terriers are taking over Glasgow! Meeting my bully brothers and sisters My friends, it is that time now to go on my first ever bull terrier walk and meet my new pals! Before we begin our awesome bully walk I just wanted to take a moment and reflect. I was always more of a person’s dog than a dog’s dog and I used to be quite crazy around other dogs. Why? Well I was always just a big bully…
Howdy folks! Rocky the Traveller here and we’ve just arrived in Leeds, UK! My human Danny has been wanting to visit this Northern English city for a long time and when we found out that it was on the way to Glasgow he was thrilled and so was I! We had left Yarmouth in the early afternoon after one last quick walk where I met another bull terrier there! It was almost like a warm-up to my massive bull terrier…
Hi guys! it’s your favorite traveling bull terrier and I’m doing one last adventure in the Norfolk region of England before I make my way up to Leeds! During our entire time at Yarmouth we had kept hearing about this wonderful place called the Broads. When I first heard about it I thought maybe they were trying to send us to a gentleman’s club or something like that but we soon found out it was a beautiful natural park (so…
Hi my friends! It’s your favorite traveling bull terrier! Not too long ago I showed you what it was like to visit Great Yarmouth! We wound up here on the way to Scotland and stopped at a bed and breakfast that was dog friendly and cheap (called The Trevross Guest House). Our total stay was about ten days, but during our first few days the seaside town seemed quite sleepy as in there was hardly any other souls around! Now…
