Many years ago on my very first trip with my first ever campervan (a Bedford Bambi) I pitched next to an elderly lady with two parrots outside that swore obscenities virtually non stop until she brought them in and put a blanket over their cages at night. I think the old dear must have been deaf as she didn't seem to notice. Just as well she was.
Lol - our African Grey goes everywhere with us, travels no problem, goes in a back pack, bike rides, etc. He can also swear like a trooper but most folk seem to like him. :whistle::whistle::whistle:
 
Our doggie comes along as well UK or Continent and the freedom of being able to travel with our dog was part of the attraction of getting a motorhome rather than trying to find accommodation that allows dogs.
 
Used to take our pet rats on holiday with us when we had them, they used to love sitting on our shoulders as we walked around, didn't half give some people a fright though! :LOL:
 
We travel with a pet gorilla all the time.

....oh sorry, that is me. I looked in the mirror again

We try and take ours away but sites are getting harder and harder we like to be by the coast,but when we go to france for a month she stays here.
 
My thought too David.
This question has just struck home we no longer are dog owners :(
But as we have Dave's collar in the mh we answered yes to taking the boy with us.
@movan thanks for the idea. It's very comforting just having something of Dave the dogs with us on our travels.
:dogthanks:
 
It seems such a simple questionnaire at first with just the two choices, but of course this MotorhomeFun where it may seem simple but turns into lunacy and chaos. :LOL:

yes, 2, Mae (on left as you look) and Gus, our border/shi tzu cross
 
If we didn't have a MH we wouldn't have any holidays as no way could we put our dogs in kennels or leave them with anyone else.
 
We’ve got a little fella, when I look down he’s there,when he looks up I’m there, he never leaves my side and Travels everywhere, so it’s a yes.

We’ve got two Golden retrievers and it does compromise what we can do but that is a restriction we are happy to live with. There is no way we would put them in kennels for more than a week.

You don't have an imaginary friend do you? Most people grow out of that as a kid ... :D
 
I'm afraid our two do go in kennels once a year for our annual cruise which SWMBO insists on. It is very good with many
Acres and a lake for them to swim in. Costs an arm and leg and I'm not keen but once a year only. Miss them like mad.
 
We take our dog everywhere with us in the motorhome, this picture is of our Jack Russell Scrumpy in La Rochelle with Pat, Scrumpy died in 2016.

This just made me think of a little poem ... hope you like it!

I've got a little fella
He's always by my side
So I'm never ever lonely
I couldn't be if I tried!

Sometimes I am grumpy
But he never tries to chide
I simply can't stay maudlin
As his time he'll carefully bide

Then when it's right he licks me
And my gloom is put aside
He loves me no matter what
He's my emotional guide

I so love my little fella
To each other we're totally 'tied'
We love going for walkies
Chests puffed out with such pride!

:D
 
Ours just cost me a €40.00 fine for sitting up front when travelling. Those Spanish motorbike cops don't miss a thing!
 
2 dogs and a cat, he manages a week or so, but starts to get a bit stir crazy after two weeks. Left him with mum a few times but last time, actually at Jim’s, he walked home. So he doesn’t have a choice now, he has to come.

Jazz loves going up front. I let her occasionally. Being Left hand drive she gets some looks when people think she's driving.

I know...I'm irresponsible..
 
I know its early doors yet very Interesting stats thus far.
When we go somewhere in our van we are normally the only ones without a dog, it was the same when we had the caravan.
I would have put money on dog ownership with both MH & Caravans being at or above 90%.
So we shall see how far out I was in my assumptions.
Ps: we love dogs, especially other peoples:D2
And the CMC dont offer us a discount for not taking one:( Feel I need to borrow one to ge me monies worth:D

Hi, yes we have a dog, and she loves the motor home, sits on the step waiting for us to open the door. Even if we are not going anywhere she goes in there and lays in the sun on the front shelf.
 
I take my wifeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee as well ray
