This is heartbreaking to hear. I’m so sorry for your loss. Dogs just don’t live long enough and I dread the day that I have to say goodbye to Winston. Dozer was very lucky to be part of your family. May he rest peacefully. ❤
Sorry for your loss guys, the void losing a pet leaves is massive. Its great you've captured your adventures with him and you will be able to look back with great fondness. Sending all our love ❤
I'm so sorry for your loss, I hope as time passes it won't hurt so much and you can enjoy all the memories you made together. We are so pleased to hear you will be continuing to share your caravan adventures, as newbies we find your videos really helpful and it is from your inspiration I am sat in The Moody Cow writing this comment now. The hot tub has been a real treat, so thanks for that one and look forward to more from you in 2025 albeit we will miss Dozer very much ❤
Ah, Mac and Sarah. Please don’t think that you need to hide your tears from anyone. How brave you are. I think one of the reasons that we love watching you is that you’re such a lovely genuine couple. We have suffered pet loss and really feel for you. I feel comforted that you know how much our lovely caravanning community are right behind you in support of you both at this sad time. It’s such a credit to you both that you are thinking about making content next year and we will definitely be on the lookout for it. You will both carry Dozer along with you in your hearts wherever you go, and I for one will be watching with that in mind. Big hugs from Amanda and Paul.❤️
Oh Amanda and Paul, thank you so much for your lovely words, we can't tell you how much we appreciate it! You're so right this truly is a wonderful community of friends ❤️ we're so grateful! Thanks so much for your support and we wish you a wonderful Christmas 🎄
So sorry for your loss. I hope you find a way forward and cherish the memories. Thank you so much for the videos and wish you the best of luck with your adventures for 2025. Graham and Elizabeth
I hope you get another dog when the time is right as your dog videos and places to visit have truly been an inspiration to us. Merry Christmas I hope you have a wonderful time.
Hi guys .. we have had 5 Rotties over 40 years .. 3 sapphire s .. 2 Rambo,s ..the pleasure they have brought is just Awesome… Rambo is 9 now .. Rotties live between 8 & 12 years .. we love all our babies & miss them .. we will always have a Rottie … they are family … I have tears , because I no what it’s like to lose … love Chris & Sammy & Rambo xx
Sorry to hear about your loss. We lost our dog in 2013, and we've not been able to bring ourselves to get another. It's like losing a family member. As with all bereavements, it does get easier and the hurt is replaced by memories. There are campsites we haven't revisited as they were among the last we visited with our dog. All the best and Merry Christmas.
Hi Graham, thanks really appreciate it. We totally agree, it's absolutely like loosing a family member. Sorry you've felt that pain too. We can definitely understand not wanting to go back to sites that have that association. Thanks again and happy Christmas to you both.
Sending you both so much love. Your love for Dozer truly shines through and he will always be with you. Giving that special person in your life the joy of all those adventures meant so much to us also. We just burst into floods of tears on our first trip away without our beautiful boy and we found ourselves just looking at everyone else’s dogs. We eventually decided to get a new puppy and what a shock it is. We decided after having two boys to get a girl this time. She will never be an Oscar or Dozer and it will never change your memories but she has helped. Dozer was so lucky to of had such lovely owners that gave him the life that you did. Sending you both all our love. Xx🐾
Mark thank you so much for your kind comment. One day another dog will join us but for now we have such wonderful memories. Thanks again and happy Christmas 🎄
Dogs are a true gift, losing a dog is unbelievable painful. I’m sure Dozer had an amazing life and knew only love and happiness. Dozer would want you to have the same joy with another dog and to provide that dog with the amazing life you gave him. ❤
So nice to see you guys back on your channel, we know how hard it hits you.....some 30 years have passed since our beloved pooch Pebble passed, we think of her daily. We cant wait to see you two out on the road again. Have a lovely Christmas and all of our best wishes for the new year ♥😘😘
Thanks very much Leslie, we'll definitely be back out and about soon. Its so lovely to know you think of Pebble each day ❤️ We'll certainly never forget Dozer bear. Thanks again and have a wonderful Christmas 🎄
Hi folks, feeling your loss. We’ve been there and for us the only cure for our broken hearts was to find another fur baby to love. We felt guilty at first but they are all different and we will never forget our previous best friend. I would also add that it is important to take time to heal. You will know if and when the time is right. We look forward to seeing more of your excellent vlogs in 2025. X
Thank you for such a heartfelt video. I’m so sorry that you are going through this. Always remember that he had a wonderful life made even more special as he got to share it with you two. ❤
Hi Mac and Sarah, so sorry to hear of Dozer ‘s passing and we completely understand your loss. Dogs are just the best. We bought our caravan for our dogs they love it so much so glad to hear you will be carrying on ❤️🌈xx
So sorry to hear about Dozer, he was a character and I'm sure you will always have great memories of him. When our Springer Spaniel Bailey died we were so upset we swore we'd never go through it again. Here we are 3 years later with another Spaniel called Milo, and we wouldn't be without him. I do however keep a Capsule with some of Baileys fur and a puppy tooth inside. And I wear it everytime we go away. I have always enjoyed your channel, and I'm sure you will find a way to carry on making great videos, even without the great Dozer in them. All the best Mally, stay strong.
Having said goodbye, in January, to our little Jack Russell of 17 years be comforted in the knowledge that the pain of the loss will pass in time, leaving only the happy memories without the upset. Adjusting to caravanning without a dog after so long isn't as hard as you may fear. In some senses it's a little bit of a relief knowing you have no ties and restrictions. Its surprising how relaxing that freedom can be. There are so many beautiful places to see in the UK. Take look at touring North Yorkshire, the Peak District, The Lakes, Wales and Scotland. Next year we are planning 3 weeks touring the eastern side of Scotland from Edinburgh right up the east coast.
Hi there Barry! Wow, 17 is such a wonderful age, but we understand it never feels like long enough. I'm sure we'll adjust to caravanning ok and you're so right, so many beautiful places to visit here! Thanks so much for your support, we really appreciate it. All the best
Sending huge love and hugs to you both. You guys and Dozer have really helped me and my wife with travel ideas for us and our dogs and we love seeing your adventures. Really looking forward to seeing what 2025 brings. X
Just watched your latest video for 2024. My heart goes out to you both and to see you so emotional is very hard. We had to say goodbye to our Spaniel Sammy 3 years ago which was very difficult. There was a big hole in the front room somuch that we decided to have a new doggy and we chose a lovely girl black Lab. Millie has become a kingpin for us and has filled the hole in our lives. You can never forget a pet such as Dozer but time will heal. Thank you for all your videos. Have the best Festive season and look to the future. By the way we have a place we always love to go in our van which is Inclboro Fields near Cromer which is a CAMC site.
Dozer was such a lovely dog and will be a huge loss for you both. We always commented on what a lovely dog Dozer was when watching your videos. Try and have a merry Christmas. Lots of love xx
It is such a struggle losing a pet and from my experience a Dog is so difficult to get over. Your content is great so please keep going as a way to move forward but also to honour him. Have as good a Christmas and New Year as possible, my sincere best wishes to you both at this difficult time.
Thank you Mac and Sarah for sharing that video with us. We love your channel. If you come to france in britany we will be happy to welcome you.Have a wonderful Christmas. We are going to Normandie with the caravan from the 27 th of December to the 5 th of January 🥳🇨🇵
Absolutely gutted for you! So sorry for your sad news. I dread the day and cherish and appreciate our old boy with all my heart, sending so much love xx
Oh guys, I just wanted to reach through the screen to give you both a big hug. Thank you for sharing such a real & honest update with us all. You are right to take the time to be with your emotions and we, your viewers completely understand. Take whatever time you need guys, we are all here when you're ready! 💕
Hi sorry to hear of your loss. I lost my Sheltie..she was 12. Miss her still. I did get another companion 1 yr later. I was too lonely. I cry with you. 😢😢Catherine in Niagara Falls 🇨🇦
Oh guys I’m so so sorry to here of Dozer’s passing, what a little star he was, I always enjoyed seeing him on your travels, you were the best doggie parents❤️we have 2 dogs and been in that same place you are now. Grieve and take your time, they leave a huge hole in our lives and he was a special part of your family . Sending you love and hugs xx
❤ I have been looking out for an update from you two following your terribly sad news. I have put my life on hold to watch your update just as soon as I became aware of it. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to your adventures going forward whatever they may be. But take your time, I am sure that we are all here when you are ready to start this new phase.
Guys…..so much love being sent out to you both from Isabel and me. We too have felt the loss of our beloved dog who was called Pepsi. It’s so lovely to see you both back, we have missed you and have been thinking of you. We wish you a happy Christmas and new year xx❤
Just picked this up , so sorry to hear the loss of Dozer!😢… I know just how hard it is , I was with my 13 year old Holly , when i had to make the hardest decision for her comfort! .. The right choice but absolutley heartbreaking ! The hurt will turn into the most wonderfull memories ( with the odd occasional wobble along the way) You gave hiven me and i’m plent of others great warmth & pleasure watching you vlogs with Dozer , it was clear to see how much you both loved Dozer.🥰I look forward yo your future vlogs!
Hope your both OK the tears will be in your eyes for years don't be afraid to show it ,it will well up at times ,im 7yrs after, we all know how it feels it never goes away dogs are amazing, and dozer had a great fab life ,because of what you both gave him ,be proud to have been his best mates ❤️
Thank you for sharing this journey with us. Losing a best friend is so very difficult. My husband and I have started adopting rescue dogs about 12 years ago. We've lost 4 of them so far and they are still with us every day. I promise, there'll be a day when you can look back and smile, without crying, it just needs time❤. We discovered your channel about 2 years ago before our first camping trip to the UK and have been massive fans since. We are taking off for another trip tomorrow and will be staying in one of the glamping units at Back of Beyond on the way. We'll send Dozer and you some happy thoughts from the woodland walk. Love, Michelle
Hey Michelle, thanks so much for watching and leaving us a lovely comment. Adopting rescues is a wonderful thing to do ❤️. We hope you enjoy Back of Beyond, it's a wonderful site. All the best xx
Merry Christmas both, If you’ve never been abroad in your van before start somewhere easy like Camping memling Bruges Belgium. Only an hour and half from the tunnel and you can relax there walking into the town for a visit.. it was terrible when we lost our first dog, so we 100% know where you guys are at… take some time out, we look forward to seeing your adventures next year but don’t feel like you tube is your job as your friends here will patiently await whatever you share in future. If you ever need tips for places to go and adventures abroad let us know - think we are on country 10 now and have really caught the bug. Take care, try to have the best Christmas you can xx
Hi Mac and Sarah. We really hope you still have a great Christmas, as hard as that will be. I feel it’s actually harder to work out how to live without him, still working on that after three years. Maybe try France. Never done anything like it before and we did 8 weeks and 4000 miles in a Basecamp 2 with no awning ! Would be happy to give you some pointers anytime. All the very best, Shaun and Helen
Hi Shaun and Helen, thanks for your message, it's really kind of you. France is definitely on the list so we may we'll pick your brains for some ideas. Thanks again and happy Christmas
Hey guys so sorry to hear of Dozers passing - big guy was a star! We have been through pet losses so can feel your pain, gone but never forgotten ! Look forward to seeing you guys in 2025 - Merry Xmas guys 🎄
So brave of you both to share your loss with us, there's not a dry eye in our house😥 You gave Dozer a fantastic life . We look forward to the next chapter of your caravan exploration . ❤
Hi Mac & Sarah. Like you, we had a caravan because we had a dog and losing him was a wrench. Since he's been gone we have been able to travel extensively abroad without having to worry about the restrictions of travelling with a pet; BUT! We still miss him and after several years we are now considering getting another dog to share our lives with. Remember; the sorrow will lessen in time and if you have love to give, (which you obviously do), you may eventually want another one. Don't consider it as a replacement for Dozer but simply as another doggie companion. Have a peaceful Christmas. Steve & Helen.
Hi Steve & Helen, thank you so much for this. It sounds like you found a balance, travelling is on our cards too. And like you, we will absolutely welcome another dog into the family at the right time. Good luck and thanks for your comment ❤️
I look at my little toy poodle and say to him you better live forever but the reality is the inevitable will happen one day and having been through it before I dread that day because it is so painful You will never forget him he will always be there in you heart ❤️ Take care Matt ❤
Hiya to you both. Don't be ashamed to show your emotions. You're missing your boy. It'll take a long time before you can mention Dozer without shedding a tear. Keep your chins up & all the best for the Christmas season. 🥂
I'm so sorry to hear this news. Its heartbreaking to lose a beloved pet. We lost our Bridie two years ago on 10th December and still cry many tears. We also bought our caravan for our dogs who love every trip. Sending love x
Hello again Mac and Sarah. It is always hard and will be for a long while yet, but it just shows what Dozer meant to you both. Louise still can't look at pictures of the three we lost even though two of them were two years ago. There is no rush to stop grieving, the same as there is no rush to plan the next step. Time is the healer and your memories are what allows you to have peace and happiness in time. Stay safe. Duncan and Louise.
Condolences for your loss. I loved watching you both with Dozer. You need time to process your loss. I hope to see you in 2025. You’re a great couple. Take care. X
big hugs to you both 🤗 And when you are ready to make that first trip without Dozer, which will be hard, your TH-cam family will be here Happy Christmas, and many travels for the New Year
So sorry to hear about Dozer, absolutely gutted for you both. You made me cry watching the video. Earlier in the year, I was watching your video with Dozer in a Buggy, I asked you where you got it from, with your help I purchased something similar for my Jake, We spent a month touring in our caravan and he thoroughly enjoyed the buggy as he couldn't walk far. He had a wonderful last month enjoying the outdoors but unfortunately succumbed shortly after getting back home, he too was 15 and a half years old, the year before, his brother slowly slipped away, looking up into the trees, birds singing, sun shining through the branches and soft breeze swirling leaves around, Hearing that Dozer was similar In his passing is when I cried, You've been a great inspiration for me, Thank you from my heart ❤
Oh Gary we're so sorry to hear about Jake and indeed his brother, our hearts are with you! We're so pleased that the buggy worked out though and Jake got to explore lots more places with you. Yes, it brought us comfort to know that Dozer went to sleep in the fresh air with the sun on his fur. All the very best Gary, thanks for getting in touch Mac & Sarah
I'm so very sorry. Nothing ever prepares any of us for grief and how we manage to carry on day to day without the purpose we once had. I hope you can both find comfort in each other. Take the time you undoubtedly need . We attach ourselves so much to our pets and they love us unconditionally. Have the best Christmas that you can. Dozer was the best looked after boy in the world and he loved you so much. You need to look after yourselves now too. He will be watching and looking out for you. Take care both. X
Thank you so much Victoria!! We really appreciate you taking the time to comment! You're so right, we do become completely attached and he certainly was our life! That unconditional love is the most special thing ever. Thank you again, have a great Christmas. All the best. Mac & Sarah ❤️
One of the hardest things to talk about as it’s not a pet it’s more like family. Remember the good and celebrate that you have had him in your lives for a small part of yours. We lost our family dog a couple of years ago and we talk about him all the time. It does get better but you will never forget him. Happy Christmas both!
I’m so sorry, there are no words to make you losing Dozer any better 😢 We have lost 4 special doggy’s over the years & one day( like us) you will be ready to let one into your hearts once more which is the medicine you could have, of course it would never replace Dozer but you will eventually give your love to another special doggie 🐶🥰 Take care both of you & hope you have a nice Christmas x
Thanks so much for your kind words, they mean so much to us! So sorry to hear you've been through it 4 times! But as you say one day we'll welcome another doggo into our hearts. Thanks again, we truly appreciate it. Merry Christmas 🎄❤️
Huge hugs to you both 😍🥰 it’s hard and there is no timescale xxx you think you doing ok and then you talk and your whole world emotionally explodes again. 😢🐾🌈 try and have a good Christmas 🎄 x we’ll be thinking of you ❤
Hi Mac and Sarah, sending you big hugs, please don’t worry about the tears we see, they are for the love for your gorgeous boy. They are and always will be a special part of our lives. ❤️💙
Hi guys, good to see you back, that hole they leave will never be fulled, when we lost our lilly (beagle) crying was part of our lives everyday, we now have little lola (beagle again), she will never full lillys hole, but a new start for us all. Look forward to seeing where you both go, we love your blogs and we Hooe one day to meet you . All the best for 2025🎉
I am so sorry for your loss. The love and care you gave Dozer was so heartwarming. You can tell what a special bond you had with him and how loved he was. Take care. ❤
Sending you best wishes for Christmas and the new year and remember Dozer bear will always be in your heart and thoughts and will be there flying high by your sides 🌈💔😭 I’m sure dozer will give you some amazing ideas for your next adventures.
Aw bless you both. My heart hurts to see the pain you are both feeling. Dozer was very lucky to have you. Our pets are family and losing our furbabies is as painful as losing a human and only those that have been through it know just how painful it is. Stay strong, sending you all my love. Remember he will always be there in your hearts and memories. Have a peaceful Christmas. Looking forward to seeing you in 2025 xx
We sat on our sofa watching you, tears rolling down our faces, and feeling your pain. Dozer is always loved and always remembered. And 2025 will bring you both new but different adventures. Maybe a trip to Norway via the ferry from Scotland with your caravan? That would be an amazing journey. Whatever you decide, find peace this Christmas and when you’re ready, we will be watching. Merry Christmas both. Clare & Joe xx
Wow, you are very brave, thanks for the update, looking forward to what you guys have in store for 2025. Stay strong and have a nice Christmas, all the very best for the New Year x
I was quite surprised that you made a video so soon after the loss of Dozer, but welcomed the heartfelt thanks you gave everyone for their support at this time. Take this festive season to come to terms with your grieving and let the dust settle , so-to-speak. I hope you have a fabulous Christmas and a prosperous new year. I look forward to you sharing your plans for 2025 when you come back with your happy smiling faces once again, and to share your passion for the Great Outdoors. Take care of yourselves and each other.
We want to pass on our sincere condolences again for your loss Mac and Sarah. Beautiful Dozer. We have avidly watched all of your videos and have been truly inspired by you both in our caravaning adventures. You are the best! Big respect for making this video to touch base and share your thoughts and feelings, as always you are just inspiring. Sending hug and we hope to maybe bump into to your Back of a Beyond at some point - what a place that is x wishing you a very merry Christmas x
Lovely to see you both ❤ Obviously still raw with the loss of Dozer. My neighbour has just last week lost her dog [Moss] to cancer. I'm trying to be there for her. Grieving is a very personal thing but aways nice to help someone with an ear or shoulder. I wish you both a very merry Christmas 🎄 and just try to keep each other close and happy. Your memories will always keep him close. ❤❤
Oh no, so sorry to hear about Dozer. Thoughts with you. Forget about TH-cam, get through what you are going through and take it easy. Again, commiserations
You guys are so authentic. It takes guts and passion to put yourself in front of a camera. It takes character and determination in spades to show your raw emotions and grief for all to see and bare your soul to your followers so soon after the heartbreaking loss of your gorgeous boy. Pam and I are so pleased that you're determined to resurrect your caravan adventure spirit again in 2025. We look forward to seeing where you end up. Have a great festive season both. See you online in 25. All love ❤️ Graham, Pam and Xenna🐾 xx
Pam, Graham and of course Xenna, thank you for your incredibly kind words, that's so lovely of you! We can't tell you how bowled over we've been by all the support we received. Thank you so much. All the best and merry Christmas 🎄
Bless you guys 🐾we feel you didn't have to reach out and explain why you have been away from TH-cam🐾we know and understand how difficult making this video must of been🐾 please try and have the best Christmas you possibly can have and we look forward to seeing you guys in the new year when you are ready xx🐾♥️
Hi guys it’s heartbraking losing a pet we lost 2 dogs to cancer a few years ago and each time it left a void that we thought could never be filled. We still went out for walks but without our dog something didn’t seem quite right , it then appeared that everyone we came across had a dog ! So after our wounds healed we got another dog and after a short while the void was filled. We’ve had our boy now for 6 years and every day is filled with happiness, he comes away with us in the caravan and loves to have a paddle in the sea,we get so much enjoyment out of just being with him, I know its early days for you but once your out of grief get yourselves another bundle of love and joy and I promise that the pit in your stomachs will soon disappear! All the very best to you both for Christmas and the coming new year. ❤❤
We lost our beloved Max in April 23, we also have another little senior dog, today we have adopted a Romanian rescue. He will never replace Max but we love him and are looking forward to new caravanning adventures . Sending big hugs x
I must have missed your last video and i had no idea. I am so sorry for your loss, they really are a huge part of our family and just as devastating as losing a human member of the family. Dozer had the kindest face and the best owners who adjusted their lives to make his all the better. I really do feel your pain. We have just had a wonderful trip to Clippesby Hall in Norfolk, absolutely stunning site with fantastic amenities and lots to see and do in the surrounding area. I highly recommended you check it out, we plan to go back and experience it in the summer. Sending lots of love and wishing you both a very Merry Christmas x
Bless you both. Totally in bits here. You truly touched our hearts with the gentle love and care you showed your Dozer during his twilight years. We lost our beloved Bailey (tiny boss yorkie) this year and have Oscar (Yorkie) and Annie (cocker Spaniel) who are now reaching their own autumn years, so we felt every word that you said tonight and share your tears. You are truly genuine and kind people that we really hope to hear from again, but understand that you need to find your way. We can only wish you all our love and will patiently wait to hopefully see you again. Love Graham, Suzi, Annie and Oscar. xx
So sorry to hear about the sad loss of Dozer guys. Our pets are only with us a relatively short time and I try to make every day count with my rommie rescue dog. You both certainly did that with Dozer. Your love for him shone through in every video as did his love for you. We will all miss him ❤
I am crying my eyes out. We lost our 6th Golden Retriever rescue 2 years ago. It has left a massive hole in our hearts and lives. We will never forget any of them, but especially the last…..dearest Darcy. My heart goes out to you both. I wish you both a peaceful Christmas and a better New Year.
I was only thinking of you guys this morning and wondering how you were doing. We have been through it twice. With time it does get easier but you never forget. Sending you much love for Christmas and the new year from NZ. ❤
Hey guys. Massive kudos to you both for doing that video. It’s not easy. I still expect to see my cat following me around as we list her the same time you lost dozer. Do the content when you feel ready not because you feel you have to. End of the day it’s only you tube. It will get better and you learn to adjust and you see these new wonderful places differently. As for ideas I’d love to see you go into France and Germany. Lots of great places. Wishing you a happy Christmas and New Year. Looking forward to watching in the future. 🐶💔
We’ve enjoyed your videos for some time now, particularly as we started following you for exactly the same reasons - we want to travel and we want to do it with our two little dogs. 🐕 We’re so sorry for you that you’ve lost Dozer and we can’t imagine what that must feel like. Grief cries and life shines on - and hope paints a rainbow. 🌈 We have yet to acquire our caravan but hope to do so in 2025. We plan to explore the U.K. and north coast of France 🇫🇷 before going further afield. So if it helps, you asked for ideas for next year - north France, Belgium etc. would be (selfishly!) great viewing for us. Try to have a lovely Christmas. 🎄 Dozer would want you to be happy. 🙏🏻
Hi there, thanks la for watching and for your very thoughtful comment ❤️ well, Dance and Belgium are on the list of possible destinations for next year, so you never know 🙂 (there's a fan site in Brugges we really want to go back to) All the best and merry Christmas
So sorry to hear about Dozer. I understand how you are feeling right now but he will be forever by your side. We lost our beloved bulldog a couple of years ago who by the way very nearly got called bulldozer, believe me he really was one too. The only thing stopping us getting another canine family member is the thought of what you are going through now. I hope you learn to live with your loss and always remember your lives will always be filled with so many happy years with Dozer.
Hi Mac and Sarah! From Holland we would like to give you some huggs because of the loss of your beautiful sweet Dozer!❤❤ We know what it is when you are loosing the best friend in life..! We would like to give you some happy flows for the future …Holland is very nice to visit by caravan. Merry Christmas days for you ! Greetings from the CaravanFreakies (René & Josephien)
I commented on your last sad video... the thing is with the loss of a dog, it's not something that goes away. I don't think time is a healer, but time will allow you to adapt to a new way of life because everything is so different when they leave us. The only thing that helped me to get through it, was to take a puppy, even if we already had another dog. It lifted me, gave me joy again, but never eased the pain, but eased the emptiness. And this new puppy allowed me to do different things again. But you have mentioned going abroad... not impossible but more difficult.. Thinking about the two of you, sending you loads of virtual hugs... take care.
Thanks so much for your comment and thoughtful advice. The loss really is so sharp. One day I'm sure we'll welcome another doggo into our lives. We really appreciate you taking the time to get in touch. All the best
Hi I never usually comment but I am so sad you have lost your beautiful boy we had 3 whippets and lost our girl in may aged 8 to kidney failure we were devastated and it effected us deeply a few months later we decided to adopt an ex breeding cocker spaniel she’s helped us so much and our other whippets love her she will never replace our Maisie she’s is irreplaceable but she’s filled the hole in our hearts and by helping her she’s helped us we still miss our Maisie she’s always with us and so will Dozer be with you sending love to you both xx
Hi Mac & Sarah lovely to see you both,your still both clearly upset and broken over dozer and it will take time to heal,you will always have your memories, i know this festive period will be hard for you both so i will just say all the best to you and happy new year,hope to see you in 2025, take care of each other xx ❤
Oh you have me in tears again, we've been there and know how much of a gap pets leave in our lives so really feel for you both. Take your time deciding what you want to do but maybe take the opportunity to visit some places where dogs aren't allowed. How many times have we all had to take it in turns to go into a stately home or eat coffee and cake outside (in the rain)! It's what we all do for our pets. Maybe you can travel a little further afield. Whatever you decide we'll be watching. Best wishes to you both and hope you have a peaceful Christmas.🙏💕
Aww Cas thank you so much!! ❤️ Yes you're absolutely right, those places are definitely ok out list at the moment! And further afiled is certainly high in the list, France, maybe further. Thanks again and we wish you a wonderful Christmas ⛄🎄❤️
Thank you so much for your video, we know how hard it is, we lost our little chap Buster about 18 months ago and to top it all I went into the loft to get some Christmas lights and in the storage tub was Busters little Christmas jumper outfit 😢, anyway hope you have a lovely Christmas and a wonderful new year, 👍❤️🐾.
Hi Guys It’s the worst thing in the world, I’m 6ft 5” 23 stone ex bouncer and had two Yorkshire terriers Ronnie & Reggie who I adored. I cried more over losing my dogs than I did over losing mum a dad. That was 20 years ago now. But I’m getting worried again as I have a dog that’s 18 years old bless him and another Yorkshire terrier who is 13, so I’m dreading the day. Have you been to woodhall spa in Lincolnshire? You would love it. Some fantastic caravan sites like Petwood caravan park, jubilee park caravans site, plenty of things to do. I have lived here for 23 years it’s beautiful. Thanks for the videos Paul
This is heartbreaking to hear. I’m so sorry for your loss. Dogs just don’t live long enough and I dread the day that I have to say goodbye to Winston. Dozer was very lucky to be part of your family. May he rest peacefully. ❤
Sorry for your loss guys, the void losing a pet leaves is massive.
Its great you've captured your adventures with him and you will be able to look back with great fondness.
Sending all our love ❤
I'm so sorry for your loss, I hope as time passes it won't hurt so much and you can enjoy all the memories you made together.
We are so pleased to hear you will be continuing to share your caravan adventures, as newbies we find your videos really helpful and it is from your inspiration I am sat in The Moody Cow writing this comment now. The hot tub has been a real treat, so thanks for that one and look forward to more from you in 2025 albeit we will miss Dozer very much ❤
Ah, Mac and Sarah. Please don’t think that you need to hide your tears from anyone. How brave you are. I think one of the reasons that we love watching you is that you’re such a lovely genuine couple. We have suffered pet loss and really feel for you. I feel comforted that you know how much our lovely caravanning community are right behind you in support of you both at this sad time. It’s such a credit to you both that you are thinking about making content next year and we will definitely be on the lookout for it. You will both carry Dozer along with you in your hearts wherever you go, and I for one will be watching with that in mind. Big hugs from Amanda and Paul.❤️
Oh Amanda and Paul, thank you so much for your lovely words, we can't tell you how much we appreciate it! You're so right this truly is a wonderful community of friends ❤️ we're so grateful!
Thanks so much for your support and we wish you a wonderful Christmas 🎄
So sorry for your loss. I hope you find a way forward and cherish the memories. Thank you so much for the videos and wish you the best of luck with your adventures for 2025. Graham and Elizabeth
Thanks so much Graham and Elizabeth. All the best
I hope you get another dog when the time is right as your dog videos and places to visit have truly been an inspiration to us. Merry Christmas I hope you have a wonderful time.
Oh thank you Holly, so glad you like the videos. All the best
Hi guys .. we have had 5 Rotties over 40 years .. 3 sapphire s .. 2 Rambo,s ..the pleasure they have brought is just Awesome… Rambo is 9 now .. Rotties live between 8 & 12 years .. we love all our babies & miss them .. we will always have a Rottie … they are family … I have tears , because I no what it’s like to lose … love Chris & Sammy & Rambo xx
Hi Chris, Sammy & Rambo, thanks for your message. Aw Rotties are gorgeous dogs ❤️ please give Rambo a BIG hug from us xx
Sorry to hear about your loss. We lost our dog in 2013, and we've not been able to bring ourselves to get another. It's like losing a family member. As with all bereavements, it does get easier and the hurt is replaced by memories. There are campsites we haven't revisited as they were among the last we visited with our dog. All the best and Merry Christmas.
Hi Graham, thanks really appreciate it. We totally agree, it's absolutely like loosing a family member. Sorry you've felt that pain too. We can definitely understand not wanting to go back to sites that have that association. Thanks again and happy Christmas to you both.
Sending you both so much love. Your love for Dozer truly shines through and he will always be with you. Giving that special person in your life the joy of all those adventures meant so much to us also. We just burst into floods of tears on our first trip away without our beautiful boy and we found ourselves just looking at everyone else’s dogs. We eventually decided to get a new puppy and what a shock it is. We decided after having two boys to get a girl this time. She will never be an Oscar or Dozer and it will never change your memories but she has helped. Dozer was so lucky to of had such lovely owners that gave him the life that you did. Sending you both all our love. Xx🐾
Mark thank you so much for your kind comment. One day another dog will join us but for now we have such wonderful memories. Thanks again and happy Christmas 🎄
Dogs are a true gift, losing a dog is unbelievable painful. I’m sure Dozer had an amazing life and knew only love and happiness. Dozer would want you to have the same joy with another dog and to provide that dog with the amazing life you gave him. ❤
Thanks so much Lee, we really appreciate it 🙂
Merry Christmas, guys 🎄. Here’s to 2025 and new adventures. Dozer will always be in your hearts ❤️
Merry Christmas Mac & Sarah 🎅🏻thank you for all that you do and share on here, I am so grateful I found you 😊❤️🎅🏻😊 heavenly wishes to Dozer Bear xxxxx
Thank you so much Michelle and merry Christmas 🎄
So nice to see you guys back on your channel, we know how hard it hits you.....some 30 years have passed since our beloved pooch Pebble passed, we think of her daily.
We cant wait to see you two out on the road again.
Have a lovely Christmas and all of our best wishes for the new year ♥😘😘
Thanks very much Leslie, we'll definitely be back out and about soon. Its so lovely to know you think of Pebble each day ❤️ We'll certainly never forget Dozer bear.
Thanks again and have a wonderful Christmas 🎄
Hi folks, feeling your loss. We’ve been there and for us the only cure for our broken hearts was to find another fur baby to love. We felt guilty at first but they are all different and we will never forget our previous best friend. I would also add that it is important to take time to heal. You will know if and when the time is right. We look forward to seeing more of your excellent vlogs in 2025. X
Best wishes to you both,I’m in tears with you. Look forward to you videos next year xx
Thank you so much Lesley ❤️ Merry Christmas 🎄
Thank you for such a heartfelt video. I’m so sorry that you are going through this. Always remember that he had a wonderful life made even more special as he got to share it with you two. ❤
Mac & Sarah, Pets are family which is why it is hard when they move on. Look forward to your travels in the future...
Hi Mac and Sarah, so sorry to hear of Dozer ‘s passing and we completely understand your loss. Dogs are just the best. We bought our caravan for our dogs they love it so much so glad to hear you will be carrying on ❤️🌈xx
Hi Hayley, thanks for watching. Buying our caravan to tour with Dozer was definitely the right decision. Have a wonderful Christmas ⛄❤️
So sorry to hear about Dozer, he was a character and I'm sure you will always have great memories of him. When our Springer Spaniel Bailey died we were so upset we swore we'd never go through it again. Here we are 3 years later with another Spaniel called Milo, and we wouldn't be without him. I do however keep a Capsule with some of Baileys fur and a puppy tooth inside. And I wear it everytime we go away. I have always enjoyed your channel, and I'm sure you will find a way to carry on making great videos, even without the great Dozer in them. All the best Mally, stay strong.
Having said goodbye, in January, to our little Jack Russell of 17 years be comforted in the knowledge that the pain of the loss will pass in time, leaving only the happy memories without the upset.
Adjusting to caravanning without a dog after so long isn't as hard as you may fear. In some senses it's a little bit of a relief knowing you have no ties and restrictions. Its surprising how relaxing that freedom can be.
There are so many beautiful places to see in the UK. Take look at touring North Yorkshire, the Peak District, The Lakes, Wales and Scotland. Next year we are planning 3 weeks touring the eastern side of Scotland from Edinburgh right up the east coast.
Hi there Barry! Wow, 17 is such a wonderful age, but we understand it never feels like long enough. I'm sure we'll adjust to caravanning ok and you're so right, so many beautiful places to visit here! Thanks so much for your support, we really appreciate it. All the best
Sending huge love and hugs to you both. You guys and Dozer have really helped me and my wife with travel ideas for us and our dogs and we love seeing your adventures. Really looking forward to seeing what 2025 brings. X
Just watched your latest video for 2024. My heart goes out to you both and to see you so emotional is very hard. We had to say goodbye to our Spaniel Sammy 3 years ago which was very difficult. There was a big hole in the front room somuch that we decided to have a new doggy and we chose a lovely girl black Lab. Millie has become a kingpin for us and has filled the hole in our lives. You can never forget a pet such as Dozer but time will heal. Thank you for all your videos. Have the best Festive season and look to the future.
By the way we have a place we always love to go in our van which is Inclboro Fields near Cromer which is a CAMC site.
Dozer was such a lovely dog and will be a huge loss for you both. We always commented on what a lovely dog Dozer was when watching your videos. Try and have a merry Christmas. Lots of love xx
So sorry to hear about the grief you are going through…take care ❤
It is such a struggle losing a pet and from my experience a Dog is so difficult to get over. Your content is great so please keep going as a way to move forward but also to honour him. Have as good a Christmas and New Year as possible, my sincere best wishes to you both at this difficult time.
Thank you Mac and Sarah for sharing that video with us.
We love your channel. If you come to france in britany we will be happy to welcome you.Have a wonderful Christmas. We are going to Normandie with the caravan from the 27 th of December to the 5 th of January 🥳🇨🇵
Absolutely gutted for you! So sorry for your sad news. I dread the day and cherish and appreciate our old boy with all my heart, sending so much love xx
Thanks Tracy, we appreciate that. Please give your boy a big hug from us xxx
Oh guys, I just wanted to reach through the screen to give you both a big hug. Thank you for sharing such a real & honest update with us all. You are right to take the time to be with your emotions and we, your viewers completely understand. Take whatever time you need guys, we are all here when you're ready! 💕
Hi sorry to hear of your loss. I lost my Sheltie..she was 12. Miss her still. I did get another companion 1 yr later. I was too lonely. I cry with you.
😢😢Catherine in Niagara Falls 🇨🇦
Oh guys I’m so so sorry to here of Dozer’s passing, what a little star he was, I always enjoyed seeing him on your travels, you were the best doggie parents❤️we have 2 dogs and been in that same place you are now. Grieve and take your time, they leave a huge hole in our lives and he was a special part of your family . Sending you love and hugs xx
❤ I have been looking out for an update from you two following your terribly sad news. I have put my life on hold to watch your update just as soon as I became aware of it. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to your adventures going forward whatever they may be. But take your time, I am sure that we are all here when you are ready to start this new phase.
Thanks so much for taking the time to watch Mike, we really appreciate it. 🙂
Guys…..so much love being sent out to you both from Isabel and me. We too have felt the loss of our beloved dog who was called Pepsi. It’s so lovely to see you both back, we have missed you and have been thinking of you.
We wish you a happy Christmas and new year xx❤
Just picked this up , so sorry to hear the loss of Dozer!😢… I know just how hard it is , I was with my 13 year old Holly , when i had to
make the hardest decision for her comfort! .. The right choice but absolutley heartbreaking ! The hurt will turn into the most wonderfull memories ( with the odd occasional wobble along the way) You gave hiven me and i’m plent of others great warmth & pleasure watching you vlogs with Dozer , it was clear to see how much you both loved Dozer.🥰I look forward yo your future vlogs!
Hope your both OK the tears will be in your eyes for years don't be afraid to show it ,it will well up at times ,im 7yrs after, we all know how it feels it never goes away dogs are amazing, and dozer had a great fab life ,because of what you both gave him ,be proud to have been his best mates ❤️
Thanks Barry, we appreciate your kind words. It does just take us by surprise sometimes. Thanks again and happy Christmas
Thank you for sharing this journey with us. Losing a best friend is so very difficult. My husband and I have started adopting rescue dogs about 12 years ago. We've lost 4 of them so far and they are still with us every day. I promise, there'll be a day when you can look back and smile, without crying, it just needs time❤.
We discovered your channel about 2 years ago before our first camping trip to the UK and have been massive fans since. We are taking off for another trip tomorrow and will be staying in one of the glamping units at Back of Beyond on the way. We'll send Dozer and you some happy thoughts from the woodland walk.
Love, Michelle
Hey Michelle, thanks so much for watching and leaving us a lovely comment. Adopting rescues is a wonderful thing to do ❤️. We hope you enjoy Back of Beyond, it's a wonderful site. All the best xx
Happy Christmas and a lovely new year.
Will look forward to watching in the new year.
Many thanks Janice, Merry Christmas 🎄
Merry Christmas both, If you’ve never been abroad in your van before start somewhere easy like Camping memling Bruges Belgium. Only an hour and half from the tunnel and you can relax there walking into the town for a visit.. it was terrible when we lost our first dog, so we 100% know where you guys are at… take some time out, we look forward to seeing your adventures next year but don’t feel like you tube is your job as your friends here will patiently await whatever you share in future. If you ever need tips for places to go and adventures abroad let us know - think we are on country 10 now and have really caught the bug. Take care, try to have the best Christmas you can xx
Hi Mac and Sarah. We really hope you still have a great Christmas, as hard as that will be. I feel it’s actually harder to work out how to live without him, still working on that after three years. Maybe try France. Never done anything like it before and we did 8 weeks and 4000 miles in a Basecamp 2 with no awning ! Would be happy to give you some pointers anytime. All the very best, Shaun and Helen
Hi Shaun and Helen, thanks for your message, it's really kind of you. France is definitely on the list so we may we'll pick your brains for some ideas. Thanks again and happy Christmas
Hey guys so sorry to hear of Dozers passing - big guy was a star! We have been through pet losses so can feel your pain, gone but never forgotten ! Look forward to seeing you guys in 2025 - Merry Xmas guys 🎄
So brave of you both to share your loss with us, there's not a dry eye in our house😥 You gave Dozer a fantastic life . We look forward to the next chapter of your caravan exploration . ❤
Ah Michael, thank you so much for watching and for reach out! We appreciate it ❤️🙂
Hi Mac & Sarah. Like you, we had a caravan because we had a dog and losing him was a wrench. Since he's been gone we have been able to travel extensively abroad without having to worry about the restrictions of travelling with a pet; BUT! We still miss him and after several years we are now considering getting another dog to share our lives with.
Remember; the sorrow will lessen in time and if you have love to give, (which you obviously do), you may eventually want another one. Don't consider it as a replacement for Dozer but simply as another doggie companion. Have a peaceful Christmas. Steve & Helen.
Hi Steve & Helen, thank you so much for this. It sounds like you found a balance, travelling is on our cards too. And like you, we will absolutely welcome another dog into the family at the right time. Good luck and thanks for your comment ❤️
This choked me up 🥺 I can see how much you miss and love him, he’s a gorgeous boy. I’m so sorry for your loss 🤍 xx
Thanks so much Harriet, we really appreciate it ❤️
I look at my little toy poodle and say to him you better live forever but the reality is the inevitable will happen one day and having been through it before I dread that day because it is so painful
You will never forget him he will always be there in you heart ❤️
Take care
Matt ❤
Hiya to you both. Don't be ashamed to show your emotions. You're missing your boy. It'll take a long time before you can mention Dozer without shedding a tear. Keep your chins up & all the best for the Christmas season. 🥂
From one and all pet owners who care, we know our hearts go out to you. Our hearts go out to you at this time of year❤❤❤❤❤
I'm so sorry to hear this news. Its heartbreaking to lose a beloved pet. We lost our Bridie two years ago on 10th December and still cry many tears. We also bought our caravan for our dogs who love every trip. Sending love x
Keep doing what you do and sharing with us. Merry Christmas to you both.
Thanks Andy, merry Christmas
I'm so sorry to hear about your losing Dozer. We just lost our 90 lb, 11 year old Lab mix Rusty. He was such a part of our lives. We are so sorry.
Hi Danny! We're so sorry to hear about Rusty! Aren't they just a massive part of our lives?
Wishing you all the best and a happy Christmas 🎄
Hello again Mac and Sarah. It is always hard and will be for a long while yet, but it just shows what Dozer meant to you both. Louise still can't look at pictures of the three we lost even though two of them were two years ago. There is no rush to stop grieving, the same as there is no rush to plan the next step. Time is the healer and your memories are what allows you to have peace and happiness in time. Stay safe. Duncan and Louise.
Condolences for your loss. I loved watching you both with Dozer. You need time to process your loss. I hope to see you in 2025. You’re a great couple. Take care. X
big hugs to you both 🤗
And when you are ready to make that first trip without Dozer, which will be hard, your TH-cam family will be here
Happy Christmas, and many travels for the New Year
So sorry to hear about Dozer, absolutely gutted for you both. You made me cry watching the video. Earlier in the year, I was watching your video with Dozer in a Buggy, I asked you where you got it from, with your help I purchased something similar for my Jake, We spent a month touring in our caravan and he thoroughly enjoyed the buggy as he couldn't walk far. He had a wonderful last month enjoying the outdoors but unfortunately succumbed shortly after getting back home, he too was 15 and a half years old, the year before, his brother slowly slipped away, looking up into the trees, birds singing, sun shining through the branches and soft breeze swirling leaves around, Hearing that Dozer was similar In his passing is when I cried, You've been a great inspiration for me, Thank you from my heart ❤
Oh Gary we're so sorry to hear about Jake and indeed his brother, our hearts are with you! We're so pleased that the buggy worked out though and Jake got to explore lots more places with you. Yes, it brought us comfort to know that Dozer went to sleep in the fresh air with the sun on his fur.
All the very best Gary, thanks for getting in touch Mac & Sarah
I’m crying along with you Sarah 😢🐾🐾 It takes time don’t rush it, sending big hugs to you both x
Thanks so much, we really appreciate it ❤️
I'm so very sorry. Nothing ever prepares any of us for grief and how we manage to carry on day to day without the purpose we once had. I hope you can both find comfort in each other. Take the time you undoubtedly need . We attach ourselves so much to our pets and they love us unconditionally. Have the best Christmas that you can. Dozer was the best looked after boy in the world and he loved you so much. You need to look after yourselves now too. He will be watching and looking out for you. Take care both. X
Thank you so much Victoria!! We really appreciate you taking the time to comment! You're so right, we do become completely attached and he certainly was our life! That unconditional love is the most special thing ever. Thank you again, have a great Christmas. All the best. Mac & Sarah ❤️
One of the hardest things to talk about as it’s not a pet it’s more like family. Remember the good and celebrate that you have had him in your lives for a small part of yours.
We lost our family dog a couple of years ago and we talk about him all the time. It does get better but you will never forget him.
Happy Christmas both!
Hi there, thanks so much for your kind words. We totally agree and we also talk about Dozer all the time.
All the best and merry Christmas 🎄
I’m so sorry, there are no words to make you losing Dozer any better 😢 We have lost 4 special doggy’s over the years & one day( like us) you will be ready to let one into your hearts once more which is the medicine you could have, of course it would never replace Dozer but you will eventually give your love to another special doggie 🐶🥰 Take care both of you & hope you have a nice Christmas x
Thanks so much for your kind words, they mean so much to us! So sorry to hear you've been through it 4 times! But as you say one day we'll welcome another doggo into our hearts. Thanks again, we truly appreciate it. Merry Christmas 🎄❤️
Huge hugs to you both 😍🥰 it’s hard and there is no timescale xxx you think you doing ok and then you talk and your whole world emotionally explodes again. 😢🐾🌈 try and have a good Christmas 🎄 x we’ll be thinking of you ❤
Hi Mac and Sarah, sending you big hugs, please don’t worry about the tears we see, they are for the love for your gorgeous boy. They are and always will be a special part of our lives. ❤️💙
Hi guys, good to see you back, that hole they leave will never be fulled, when we lost our lilly (beagle) crying was part of our lives everyday, we now have little lola (beagle again), she will never full lillys hole, but a new start for us all.
Look forward to seeing where you both go, we love your blogs and we Hooe one day to meet you .
All the best for 2025🎉
I am so sorry for your loss. The love and care you gave Dozer was so heartwarming. You can tell what a special bond you had with him and how loved he was. Take care. ❤
Sending you best wishes for Christmas and the new year and remember Dozer bear will always be in your heart and thoughts and will be there flying high by your sides 🌈💔😭 I’m sure dozer will give you some amazing ideas for your next adventures.
Best wishes to you both, hope you can have a good Christmas despite the Dozer shaped hole in your lives. Gone but never forgotten ❤
Aw bless you both. My heart hurts to see the pain you are both feeling. Dozer was very lucky to have you. Our pets are family and losing our furbabies is as painful as losing a human and only those that have been through it know just how painful it is. Stay strong, sending you all my love. Remember he will always be there in your hearts and memories. Have a peaceful Christmas. Looking forward to seeing you in 2025 xx
Same to both you x
Thanks Keith
We sat on our sofa watching you, tears rolling down our faces, and feeling your pain. Dozer is always loved and always remembered. And 2025 will bring you both new but different adventures. Maybe a trip to Norway via the ferry from Scotland with your caravan? That would be an amazing journey.
Whatever you decide, find peace this Christmas and when you’re ready, we will be watching. Merry Christmas both. Clare & Joe xx
We lost our dog very suddenly. Our thoughts are with you both and shed a tear with you. X
Oh so sorry to hear that Janet! Our hearts go out to you! Thanks so much for watching
❤❤❤
When you’re both ready I can’t wait to see your new adventures.
Merry Christmas 😊
Wow, you are very brave, thanks for the update, looking forward to what you guys have in store for 2025. Stay strong and have a nice Christmas, all the very best for the New Year x
May the long nightfall of the solstice bring peace of mind and enlightenment of soul
Thank you, we appreciate that 🙂
I was quite surprised that you made a video so soon after the loss of Dozer, but welcomed the heartfelt thanks you gave everyone for their support at this time. Take this festive season to come to terms with your grieving and let the dust settle , so-to-speak. I hope you have a fabulous Christmas and a prosperous new year. I look forward to you sharing your plans for 2025 when you come back with your happy smiling faces once again, and to share your passion for the Great Outdoors. Take care of yourselves and each other.
We want to pass on our sincere condolences again for your loss Mac and Sarah. Beautiful Dozer. We have avidly watched all of your videos and have been truly inspired by you both in our caravaning adventures. You are the best! Big respect for making this video to touch base and share your thoughts and feelings, as always you are just inspiring. Sending hug and we hope to maybe bump into to your Back of a Beyond at some point - what a place that is x wishing you a very merry Christmas x
Lovely to see you both ❤
Obviously still raw with the loss of Dozer.
My neighbour has just last week lost her dog [Moss] to cancer. I'm trying to be there for her. Grieving is a very personal thing but aways nice to help someone with an ear or shoulder.
I wish you both a very merry Christmas 🎄 and just try to keep each other close and happy. Your memories will always keep him close. ❤❤
Thank you so much Karen! We're certain your neighbor is grateful for your support ❤️ have a wonderful Christmas, all the best best Mac & Sarah xx
Oh no, so sorry to hear about Dozer. Thoughts with you. Forget about TH-cam, get through what you are going through and take it easy. Again, commiserations
You guys are so authentic. It takes guts and passion to put yourself in front of a camera. It takes character and determination in spades to show your raw emotions and grief for all to see and bare your soul to your followers so soon after the heartbreaking loss of your gorgeous boy. Pam and I are so pleased that you're determined to resurrect your caravan adventure spirit again in 2025. We look forward to seeing where you end up.
Have a great festive season both. See you online in 25. All love ❤️ Graham, Pam and Xenna🐾 xx
Pam, Graham and of course Xenna, thank you for your incredibly kind words, that's so lovely of you! We can't tell you how bowled over we've been by all the support we received.
Thank you so much. All the best and merry Christmas 🎄
Bless you guys 🐾we feel you didn't have to reach out and explain why you have been away from TH-cam🐾we know and understand how difficult making this video must of been🐾 please try and have the best Christmas you possibly can have and we look forward to seeing you guys in the new year when you are ready xx🐾♥️
Hi guys it’s heartbraking losing a pet we lost 2 dogs to cancer a few years ago and each time it left a void that we thought could never be filled. We still went out for walks but without our dog something didn’t seem quite right , it then appeared that everyone we came across had a dog !
So after our wounds healed we got another dog and after a short while the void was filled. We’ve had our boy now for 6 years and every day is filled with happiness, he comes away with us in the caravan and loves to have a paddle in the sea,we get so much enjoyment out of just being with him, I know its early days for you but once your out of grief get yourselves another bundle of love and joy and I promise that the pit in your stomachs will soon disappear!
All the very best to you both for Christmas and the coming new year. ❤❤
Thanks so much for sharing that with us! We're certain that one day we'll do the same, the hole is too vast. Thanks again and all the best ❤️
We lost our beloved Max in April 23, we also have another little senior dog, today we have adopted a Romanian rescue. He will never replace Max but we love him and are looking forward to new caravanning adventures . Sending big hugs x
So sorry to hear about Max! What a wonderful thing to adopt a Romanian pup that needs a home ❤️ thanks so much for watching x all the best
Sending ❤ ❤️
Thanks very much Trevor
I must have missed your last video and i had no idea. I am so sorry for your loss, they really are a huge part of our family and just as devastating as losing a human member of the family. Dozer had the kindest face and the best owners who adjusted their lives to make his all the better. I really do feel your pain.
We have just had a wonderful trip to Clippesby Hall in Norfolk, absolutely stunning site with fantastic amenities and lots to see and do in the surrounding area. I highly recommended you check it out, we plan to go back and experience it in the summer.
Sending lots of love and wishing you both a very Merry Christmas x
Bless you both. Totally in bits here. You truly touched our hearts with the gentle love and care you showed your Dozer during his twilight years. We lost our beloved Bailey (tiny boss yorkie) this year and have Oscar (Yorkie) and Annie (cocker Spaniel) who are now reaching their own autumn years, so we felt every word that you said tonight and share your tears. You are truly genuine and kind people that we really hope to hear from again, but understand that you need to find your way. We can only wish you all our love and will patiently wait to hopefully see you again. Love Graham, Suzi, Annie and Oscar. xx
So sorry to hear about the sad loss of Dozer guys. Our pets are only with us a relatively short time and I try to make every day count with my rommie rescue dog. You both certainly did that with Dozer. Your love for him shone through in every video as did his love for you. We will all miss him ❤
I am crying my eyes out. We lost our 6th Golden Retriever rescue 2 years ago. It has left a massive hole in our hearts and lives. We will never forget any of them, but especially the last…..dearest Darcy. My heart goes out to you both. I wish you both a peaceful Christmas and a better New Year.
Aww Jackie, thank you for watching and leaving us a comment, we appreciate it so much. Have a great Christmas
I said I would never have another dog, but 3yrs later we have got a Boston Terrier and life is complete for us, thinking of you both 🤗🤗🤗
Dozer was clearly such an important part of your lives, he was much loved and you will carry him in your hearts
I was only thinking of you guys this morning and wondering how you were doing. We have been through it twice. With time it does get easier but you never forget. Sending you much love for Christmas and the new year from NZ. ❤
Hi Sonia, thanks so much for thinking of us, we're touched ❤️ we really appreciate your support. All the best, Mac & Sarah
Hey guys. Massive kudos to you both for doing that video. It’s not easy. I still expect to see my cat following me around as we list her the same time you lost dozer. Do the content when you feel ready not because you feel you have to. End of the day it’s only you tube. It will get better and you learn to adjust and you see these new wonderful places differently. As for ideas I’d love to see you go into France and Germany. Lots of great places. Wishing you a happy Christmas and New Year. Looking forward to watching in the future. 🐶💔
We’ve enjoyed your videos for some time now, particularly as we started following you for exactly the same reasons - we want to travel and we want to do it with our two little dogs. 🐕
We’re so sorry for you that you’ve lost Dozer and we can’t imagine what that must feel like.
Grief cries and life shines on - and hope paints a rainbow. 🌈
We have yet to acquire our caravan but hope to do so in 2025. We plan to explore the U.K. and north coast of France 🇫🇷 before going further afield.
So if it helps, you asked for ideas for next year - north France, Belgium etc. would be (selfishly!) great viewing for us.
Try to have a lovely Christmas. 🎄 Dozer would want you to be happy. 🙏🏻
Hi there, thanks la for watching and for your very thoughtful comment ❤️ well, Dance and Belgium are on the list of possible destinations for next year, so you never know 🙂 (there's a fan site in Brugges we really want to go back to)
All the best and merry Christmas
So sorry to hear about Dozer. I understand how you are feeling right now but he will be forever by your side. We lost our beloved bulldog a couple of years ago who by the way very nearly got called bulldozer, believe me he really was one too. The only thing stopping us getting another canine family member is the thought of what you are going through now. I hope you learn to live with your loss and always remember your lives will always be filled with so many happy years with Dozer.
Hi Mac and Sarah! From Holland we would like to give you some huggs because of the loss of your beautiful sweet Dozer!❤❤ We know what it is when you are loosing the best friend in life..! We would like to give you some happy flows for the future …Holland is very nice to visit by caravan. Merry Christmas days for you ! Greetings from the CaravanFreakies (René & Josephien)
Sending much love and totally understand your grief ❤❤❤
I commented on your last sad video... the thing is with the loss of a dog, it's not something that goes away. I don't think time is a healer, but time will allow you to adapt to a new way of life because everything is so different when they leave us. The only thing that helped me to get through it, was to take a puppy, even if we already had another dog. It lifted me, gave me joy again, but never eased the pain, but eased the emptiness. And this new puppy allowed me to do different things again.
But you have mentioned going abroad... not impossible but more difficult..
Thinking about the two of you, sending you loads of virtual hugs... take care.
Thanks so much for your comment and thoughtful advice. The loss really is so sharp. One day I'm sure we'll welcome another doggo into our lives. We really appreciate you taking the time to get in touch. All the best
Hi I never usually comment but I am so sad you have lost your beautiful boy we had 3 whippets and lost our girl in may aged 8 to kidney failure we were devastated and it effected us deeply a few months later we decided to adopt an ex breeding cocker spaniel she’s helped us so much and our other whippets love her she will never replace our Maisie she’s is irreplaceable but she’s filled the hole in our hearts and by helping her she’s helped us we still miss our Maisie she’s always with us and so will Dozer be with you sending love to you both xx
Sending you lots of love. They are so special to us living without them is hard take care thinking about you ❤❤❤
Thank you so much Diane, we really appreciate it and your support ❤️

Hi Mac & Sarah lovely to see you both,your still both clearly upset and broken over dozer and it will take time to heal,you will always have your memories, i know this festive period will be hard for you both so i will just say all the best to you and happy new year,hope to see you in 2025, take care of each other xx ❤
Oh you have me in tears again, we've been there and know how much of a gap pets leave in our lives so really feel for you both.
Take your time deciding what you want to do but maybe take the opportunity to visit some places where dogs aren't allowed. How many times have we all had to take it in turns to go into a stately home or eat coffee and cake outside (in the rain)! It's what we all do for our pets. Maybe you can travel a little further afield.
Whatever you decide we'll be watching.
Best wishes to you both and hope you have a peaceful Christmas.🙏💕
Aww Cas thank you so much!! ❤️ Yes you're absolutely right, those places are definitely ok out list at the moment! And further afiled is certainly high in the list, France, maybe further. Thanks again and we wish you a wonderful Christmas ⛄🎄❤️
Thank you so much for your video, we know how hard it is, we lost our little chap Buster about 18 months ago and to top it all I went into the loft to get some Christmas lights and in the storage tub was Busters little Christmas jumper outfit 😢, anyway hope you have a lovely Christmas and a wonderful new year, 👍❤️🐾.
Awww bless Buster ❤️❤️ we're so sorry for your loss! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!every Christmas xx
So sorry to hear your news,
Thank you Tracy ❤️
Aw so sorry to hear about Dozer the loss is so hard, my heart goes out to you both 💔🤗😘
Hi Guys
It’s the worst thing in the world, I’m 6ft 5” 23 stone ex bouncer and had two Yorkshire terriers Ronnie & Reggie who I adored. I cried more over losing my dogs than I did over losing mum a dad.
That was 20 years ago now. But I’m getting worried again as I have a dog that’s 18 years old bless him and another Yorkshire terrier who is 13, so I’m dreading the day. Have you been to woodhall spa in Lincolnshire? You would love it. Some fantastic caravan sites like Petwood caravan park, jubilee park caravans site, plenty of things to do. I have lived here for 23 years it’s beautiful. Thanks for the videos
