Do you ever feel bad when you leave your dog at home by his/herself? That look they give you when you start to shuffle around the house and grab your keys and walk toward the door? I know it all too well. Leaving them at home I used to leave Rocky with a bunch of toys and the television on sometimes to feel like he’s got company. I also heard that giving him a piece of my clothing would help…
Hi guys! Rocky the Traveller here! We finally made it to Glasgow and the sun is shining! Our Big British Road Trip began in Yarmouth and the Norfolk region and took us to Leeds and now after going through flooded roads we’re at the apex of our journey! To give you some background on our Big British Road trip: A few months ago we were invited by our dear Instagram friend and bull terrier enthusiast Emily Devine and her…
Hi my friends! Thought I would take a small break from the travel blog to celebrate my tenth birthday! I know, I can’t believe it myself that I have been on Earth for ten years! It seemed like only yesterday that I was born to a lovely family of champion bull terriers in Indiana and then delivered by a flying stork to my new dad Danny in the Washington DC area. (At least he told me it was a stork)….
Have you ever come back to your home country and found yourself speaking another language after spending time in another country? Well, it happened to us after spending a week or so in the French Alps and in Paris. We came back to the UK speaking (and barking) in French. But it looks like once you enter the port city Dover, UK, it’s not unheard of to hear a bit of the French language. Another detail we noticed when we…
Bonjour my friends! We’ve just finished our adventure in the lovely town of Chamonix Mont-Blanc in France and we’re making our way up through France again toward the UK. It’s a long journey so we split the drive and we’re making a stop over in one of my favorite cities ever: Paris! Our traveling companion Sophie had never before been to this grand city so we had time to do just a few things that we thought are the…
Bonjour again my friends! My first few days in Chamonix, Mont Blanc in the Haute-Savoie region of France were quite the awesome adventure because I went cycling throughout the town while surrounded by some of the most beautiful scenery in the entire planet. My next few days in Chamonix were equally as awesome because I got to meet an Instagram legend bull terrier named Ringo. I also did some more exploring around the town and tried to make my way up…
Hello my fellow travelers! It’s been a while since I have written a post. My paws are a bit sore from traveling everywhere so I had little time to recover my paws to type here. I want to take you on a little journey through the beautiful county of Dorset. My adventures in Dorset have taken me through the New Forest and now bring me to Christchurch which is right next to the seaside town of Bournemouth. Christchurch also has its…
It feels wonderful to be back home in the UK and especially in my comfy bed after traveling around France and Switzerland. But it wasn’t long before adventure came knocking once again and I found myself in the mythical land known as the New Forest. Once I set my paws down on the New Forest I realized that it didn’t seem very new at all. History says the New Forest got its name during the era of William the Conqueror…
So you want to travel from England to France with your dog? Or from France to England you say? Or maybe even from England to the Netherlands. Well, I got you covered! I just wrapped up a trip from France and I’m now returning to the United Kingdom and on my way I’m visiting the port city of Dunkirk. But before I embark on the ferry ride, I’d like to share what it’s like to go on this ferry ride…
Lads and lasses we are on the tail-end of our first journey across the lovely and dog-friendly country known as France. We began the journey with a bit of exploring in Calais then off and did some sightseeing at the castles in Alsace and then up to the Normandie region for the D-Day experience. We are now going to finish this trip in style with an adventure on the tide island of the legendary Mont Saint-Michel. Mont Saint-Michel is called…
