    Its mind blowing to me that so many people overlook their pets when considering full time rv living. Thats part of what took me so long to do it, I wanted to make sure my cats are comfortable!

    Fantastic topic, Amber! I follow several rvliving/vanlife/trucklife/overlanding channels and this is the first time that someone has addressed the topic of pets. I learned quite a bit from this video. There's a ton of useful information here that had never even occurred to me. Thanks!

    Comprehensive video. Dogs are your fur babies! Similar to people, some are intolerant to heat and prone to allergies. If fortunate enough they will live to a ripe old age!! Seems like Lilly will be one of them, you do a terrific job making sure she’s ok!! 🐶😘🐶😘🐶

    Thanks for the tips. My dog gets car sick therefore I always feed him at least 2 hours before I hit the road or if we’re only traveling less than 4 hours I will feed him half of his food then give him the rest when we arrive. I also keep a cup of water in the cup holder so that he can drink when he’s thirsty. My number one suggestion is to know your dog. I monitor signs from my dog when he needs to potty and have pulled over on the highway (safely) to let him potty because they sometimes have excitement potty once in the car traveling. Enjoy your week and stay safe.

    • @AmberJBaldwin
      @AmberJBaldwin  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’m sorry to hear that your dog gets sick in the car but that you know your dog well enough to see the signs and take care of it before he gets ill. It’s a tricky situation sometimes with our pets.

    Thanks for the info, would like to have had vet care on the road included. I did a lot of research on seatbelt safety harnesses for dogs in vehicles. They do the crash test dummy tests for this as well. The only safety harness that is approved and tested with crash test dummies is the “Sleepypod Click It”.

    Great video. We keep a special set of toys in our camper. Our dog gets so excited when he sees them. In fact he gets excited when he sees us packing up the camper for a weekend. Would love to have the seatbelt for his harness since he does sit on the front bench seat between us.

  • @debmann5168
    @debmann5168 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video Amber! Really thorough. The blue algae bloom, the Canary camera with wifi etc -- a few things I had not though of. My Lily is 32 lbs so she is medium in size. I have always wondered how large your Lily is. She is pretty small and so adorable. My Lily hates the car and has anxiety with travel so we are working on it. She will not sit on the front seat when we travel like your Lily. She wants to hunker down in her bed behind the passenger seat on the floor. I should try that seat belt since it looks like it extends to the back seat clips. I don't have an RV yet, but I know I need a larger one to give her space and your topics are all things I think about. Lily's comfort and safety solutions are all things I need solutions for before I go on the road. Thanks again for this video! #RVLivingDogs

  • @normabennett27
    @normabennett27 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I find the cooling mats very useful - not only for my dog! My dog doesn't like travelling in a car or RV - he's absolutely fine it the RV once we have stopped and camp up....it was quite distressing to see him just panting and being very 'uncomfortable'. I used his Thundershirt (once I remembered I had one!) and then I discovered CBD treats for dogs which I give him at least an hour before we set off (especially if it is a longer journey) and that has been brilliant! Highly recommend those. It just 'relaxes him (and me!)

    • @AmberJBaldwin

    Hi Amber...great video and tips for our dogs and pets. My dog, Kia is a rescue dog, weighs 7 lbs and the most picky eater. She just made 16 yo. I got her in 2012 when I moved back to Hawaii from CA when I retired from my job of 30 years. Lily looks like Kia’s best friend Sachi. Thanks for sharing all your doggie tips I really enjoyed your video again. Stay safe and best wishes to a lucky dog who wins the prize. With C19, Kia and I don’t travel much in the car so no need for this prize.....not like you vanlifers...LOL. Take care Amber. I will post a pic of my dog on hash tag site so you can see what she looks like.

    • @AmberJBaldwin

  • @Banagal
    @Banagal 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great job on your video on #RVLivingDogs ! (when I save the # it disappears...???).It was very comprehensive and I enjoyed it being I'm an animal lover and "mom". I have 1 dog that I rescued and 2 horses. I've traveled with my pets for leisure and work, but that's another story. I have both my dog and horses microchipped for safety in case of an emergency and if they're stolen. I really appreciated your coverage of water-borne disease because lakes and streams may be fatal to our pets. My vet recommended a rattlesnake vaccine for any dog that is at risk. The vaccine buys you some time to get to a vet and can save their lives. I was a bloodhound handler and have experienced rattlesnake bites to my hounds so I speak from first-hand experience. All the best to you and Lily. She's so fortunate to have a "mom" like you!

    Great information, I camp at local state parks and typically bring several dogs, I saw another family set up a yard of sorts for their dogs so I decided to make my own so I bought several 48" xpens and a 24" (for next to trailer) a guy from work made me stands/support/uprights and now I set up a yard for the dogs, I have a deaf dog so it works great for him he's young and active and when I have to tie him out (during set/break down) he just gets tangled so the yard is less stress for me so definitely worth the time plus the dogs love it, it gives them some freedom but still keeps them safe.

    • @AmberJBaldwin
      @AmberJBaldwin  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Alicia L Thanks so much! ☺️ Thats such a great idea and glad you have adopted a deaf dog and continue caring for it. That may sound weird, but some would just give it up or drop off some where which is so cruel.

      @alicial6072 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@AmberJBaldwin It's a Dalmatian and the Dalmatian club of America requires it's AKC breeders to euthanize the deaf pups but our rescue is Dalmatian and deaf dog rescue, we've had boxers, bull dogs, sheep dogs, we require the dogs to be neutered/spayed at 6 months so there is no way they will pass on the handicap but deaf dogs are great dogs you just need to figure out how to communicate with them and you need to keep them on lead all time because theirs no recall, right now I have him training for K9 nosework.

    I have 6 female Shih Tzus. My biggest problem is finding places to camp with them. I use portable metal fencing at campsites or they are on leashes and/or in a pet stroller/trailer which can be pulled by my vintage bicycle. I have taken them in my car and motorhome from the beginning. They are all good travelers. I am not full-time. They are my priority, camping/traveling or at home.

    #RVLivingdogs Great info! Thanks for the education One thing you didn't mention is to not let your dog drink salt water. There are some dog friendly beaches here in Florida and they don't normally drink salt water but if not enough fresh water is available OR if they are playing fetch with a stick, ball or toy, they can get more than is tolerable of salt ingestion - this can lead to rapid onset of seizures and a quick death.

    I travel and camp with my dogs in Colorado. The only time I can leave them in the car to go into a store, etc. is when it’s dark outside, meaning it’s raining or night. Even in the winter it is too sunny and will quickly overheat a car. Traveling with my dogs means I can’t do many of the things travelers without pets do, but that is the choice I’ve made. No gift shops, museums, galleries, restaurants or other attractions. Mostly we hike.

    Thanks for the info. I dont have an RV yet but I do have two Pomeranian puppies. So the seat belt fir pets will be the first addition to my RV dream life. Is it weird that I want to start collecting RV things before I even have an RV? My biggest concern with my dogs is having A/C for them when I have to leave them in the rig (to grocery shop or whatever). Are you able to run your A/C when you leave Lily in your van?

    It’s very alarming that so many of the products that are being sold for car safety for pets flat out don’t work. This is due to the fact that the industry is unregulated. Please help combat this by only buying products that can show they have been crash tested. Over 90% of what is being sold experiences alarming failures during crash simulations. I have bought travel bed carriers from Sleepypod for mine. I can’t say enough good things about them. I was extremely impressed with the quality and build of them when I got mine. They didn’t build vintage Samsonite that well.

Their dog assists with his type 1 diabetes, you may have a more visual need.
