    I once left a comment on one of your vids giving the impression you had not had Blues best interest at heart on one of your crazy wild camps in freezing conditions and blowing a gale. How wrong I was! I've never come across a more caring owner of a dog with such an amazing relationship between you both. I'm very sorry about that, please accept my apologies. You really do give him the best life a dog could have.

    • @BUSHMANandBLUE
      @BUSHMANandBLUE  2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    • @domo3552
      @domo3552 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      If Al ever did get into a spot of bother in the hills, I'm sure that Blue would rescue him by finding help and taking that help back to Al and all would be well. Bushman and Blue are a genuine team!

    • @domo3552
      @domo3552 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This is true-life Lassie! 🙂.
      I can imagine Blue running up to a stranger and barking at him and the stranger replies "No, Blue? You're saying that Al has been caught in an avalanche!!!? Up there 300 metres to the west??"
      "WOOF WOOF!! (yes!!)"
      Al's gonna be alright 👍

    I highly commend you for the care you take of the wonderful Blue. I've seen other people go camping with even short-haired dogs and make absolutely no provision for keeping them warm and comfortable. It hurts my heart to see a dog curled up tightly and shivering in freezing conditions, while his human companion (dressed in all kinds of warm clothing) takes no notice of his distress.

    I found your channel a week ago and have been watching a video every day. Today I thought I’d asked what was in his backpack. And tada! It was recommended. I subscribed today and I reckon this was my reward. Thank you from 67 and 73 year old hikers. We only hike on easy trails and our most adventurous was the Camino de Santiago in 2018. So your videos are our adrenaline rush.

    I have the Ruff wear backpack for my Flat coated retriever. I have the larger model where you can disconnect the bags. I have found that they are unnecessary large. The good thing with this are that you have 2 flexible water bladders of one liter each. Last years the puddles and streams are out of water in the high summer so you have to bring it with you. My two dogs needs at least 0,5 liter per hour each when they are working. Thank god we have many lakes so I can refill them. All things that I want to keep dry I have to have in zip-lock bags. There is now way to stop the dogs if they come close to a lake or the coast. If you fill these saddlebags the dog will be extremely wide. I think the bags you have for Blue is a better choice. If i get saddlebags for the Tervuren I will choose the model you have for Blue.

    • @BUSHMANandBLUE
      @BUSHMANandBLUE  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      For camping the pouch sizes are pretty good. I get him to carry all my litter home and any we find along the way👍

    • @matsalm2943
      @matsalm2943 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@BUSHMANandBLUE A very good idea to bring home litter. Especially your own which I always do. A long the coast in many places it floats ashore tons of plastic every year on the islands. This garbage comes from many countries including UK that comes and end up on our shores and islands. There is several currents coming from the the Baltic going north. From Norway going south and the Even refrigerates, fishing trays from trawlers. Plastic bags and bottles and many other plastic things. They are in every storm again watched by the waves and grinned against the cliffs until it becomes micro plastic pieces. There are now beaches in Sweden where there are more micro plastic pieces than there is corn of sand. A lot of micro plastic comes from our washing machines. Especially from fleece. The fishes eat these micro plastic particles believing it is plankton. Many communities along the coast have to many man-years every year to clean up the worst.

    Adore Blue, and the relationship you have, he reminds me of my old pal Sweep, a border collie. I was 12 when he joined me, and he was my wing man, totally at my side, and he joined me on my 530am paper rounds(yes we could do paper rounds at 12, back then lol), and the post school paper rounds and he loved being given a task, I knew nothing about training a dog but we just bonded and he understood me, I see that so much in Blue with you, that bond, pals, friendship. Everytime I see Blue it reminds me of Sweep, the rapport and trust in each other, the teamwork. I love watching you guys work as a team, and I miss that, but unfortunately my work/life balance does not make it possible to include another Sweep into the situation. Great that you had a focus on Blue in this upload, really enjoyed it, and also made me remember the good times I had with my lil buddy, thanks both!

    • @BUSHMANandBLUE
      @BUSHMANandBLUE  2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Blue is just like my Jess, a collie and never stops. They want to go on forever. But they can't. I won't go walking anymore because Jess can't, and I won't leave her at home. So we do little walks.
    After a short walk, maybe an hour, she is stiff for a day or two. I'm not being paid to say this but yumove tablets really work for Jess.

    Great video, just rescued a collie cross 3 week ago and now he’s growing more confident I think it’s time for off the lead training to start soon and I hadn’t even thought of a gps tracking device. Will give me a much greater peace of mind as I would never catch him in a million years if he bolts. Hope you’re well mate!

    Thanks so much for the run-through of Blue’s kit. My pup X (yes, his call name is just X) carries much the same but I am definitely going to make him a pad with the reflective foil. Wish I could find the rain cover. I am getting X a custom made pack due to his size. We are doing a 100-mile hike this winter and he will be carrying more than usual, all day, for over a week. Because he is a big pup with a deep, wide chest, a good fitting pack is difficult to find so I found someone who will make the pack to his specific measurements. I will be cacheing supplies every three days to keep the weight down. Do you carry anything for first aid? X carries a small tin of Musher’s Friend for chapped paws and noses, antihistamine for bug bites, beef flavored electrolytes, and a small foil pack of raw pumpkin, as giardia is an issue. The pumpkin does wonders for a pup’s upset gut! (Few things are worse than sleeping with a 90 pound dog suffering from intestinal distress in a small tent)
    Give Blue a jowl rub from us!

I carry first aid and in that I have insulation tape which is great just to tape up any finger or paw cuts or sore patches. He very rarely has had an issue. Luckily Blue has never had any gut problems in the tent 😂
