Welcome!
Welcome to my blog about how we gave up our jobs to tour Europe full-time with four dogs, first in a caravan; now in a self-converted 6-wheel ex-army truck!
Designed to entertain & inform, you will find our travels BC (Before Canines) and AD (After Dogs) – with a bit of practical advice thrown in.

– Blog Reviews –
“Brilliantly written and never fails to make me laugh! Photos of the doggies are cuteness overload!” Helen B.
“I’m loving your blogs Jackie, so well written and amusing. In addition, for many people, the information about travel with pets, pursuing Bailey caravans for the shortfalls of their products and how to remove snow balls from the belly of a dog, is invaluable.” Elaine W. – Author.
“Jackie makes it hilarious; the dogs are just gorgeous; photos are amazing. Love these guys and the fact they have dared to be different. The pups have certainly experienced so much more than any other dog I know for sure, only wish they could talk or have their own blog. Love and luck to you all.” Julie C.
“Of all the dog-centric caravan travel blogs I follow, this one is by far the best.” Luke D.
“You have absolutely got to write a book… I have never met anyone who writes like you . Even your blog about toilets was a joy to read.” Nicola J.
O.K. Nicola – your wish is my command… 😂
