I have 3 dogs that live with me. My husband passed away almost 5 years ago. These dogs are great companions. Don’t know what I would be without them.

Your life has adapted well to camping. And your dogs know what to do at a camp site. Thats so cool. I would never get out of the car and just let my dogs I had out. With no dogs any longer - I’m old and I am not able to walk my dogs any longer. Since I am not able to do thst I let my dogs get old and passed naturally. I haven’t had any dogs now in about 5 yrs now. I now have a cat. She’s darling and great company.
You know it’s funny but I don’t think I know your name. I know Henry is your husband now, and Ella and pearl are your dogs. I just think it’s so funny I don’t know your name. Or I knew and forgot. Old age creeping on me.
Why would anyone anyone have a dog locked in a van all day.
I think a dog is a great companion. Ellas breed
Is a great breed. Also thst precious pearl, is just so darling. Do you know I have been listening and watching you for a while. In fact I was watching you before you met Henry. But it was shortly thereafter you met him. I’m so happy for you both. I’ve seen your wedding and it was beautiful and very well done. I have told you before I wish I had your organizational skills. I am an old widow now. I sold my house a few yrs after he died.i just couldn’t go there any longer.
If
Hers are not locked in the van all day. Did you see them in the huge dog park?
I can’t imagine my life without animals. When we travel we bring our two dogs and our two cats. I know people probably Think we are nuts, but they are a part of our family that bring so much joy, exasperation, fun, love and happiness into our lives. There is nothing like cuddling with a beloved animal when you need solace.
I have 5 cats and I Travel with them.
Your dogs are honestly so lucky that they get to see the world.
I had my golden retriever for 4 years and thought of her just like you think of yours. One day a fight broke out and my golden turned into a pit bull and I had never seen her act like that and it was fantastic. Don't under estimate Ella. She's got your back.
so true! my groodle got on her haunches and bailed up a strange woman my brother bought home one time.. she was right about that b*tch. never saw her do it before that nor after. LOL Goldens are amazing! I want another
My roommate had a golden n we always said he'd take the robbers straight to the jewels while wagging his tail n bringing toys 4 them😂
I understand your statement but please don't use the comparison to a pitbull!! They are the sweetest dogs and most loving. I own 3 and the stereotypes and these comments are so hurtful for the breed! 2 of my pitbulls would definitely run away and hide from any conflict and the other would only defend if it was absolutely necessary. Every single dog breed can be aggressive or protective. Hope you have a great day.
@@lydiaj3I always say of any dog, it's not always the breed. It's sad but true dogs get these reputations because people blame the wrong end of the lead. Pitballs are loving and loyal. All dogs are treated the right way xxx
Really loving the long form videos, and getting to know you better!
We're older folks - and learning so much from you. You're just beginning and we're winding down. I wasn't as savvy back then as you are!!
Keep on taking us with you!
I make RUclips videos in a similar spirit as you and I travel and live on the road with my two cats and I've definitely had a lot of people not be able to wrap their head around the fact that not only are they THRIVING but it's really not as difficult as people think. They add so much for me and my experience on the road. Can't image my life without animals! Sending love from my stretch of road to yours 💛💛💛
I travel with my dog, Aurora. She’s a lab and, like you said with Ella, she makes me laugh when she knows I’m sad. Her favorite thing to do that makes me laugh is to chase her tail. She’ll just run herself dizzy in circles as long as I’m laughing. She also licks away my tears and uses pressure therapy when I have an anxiety attack or get upset. She LOVES living in our van and exploring the world with me! Thank you for your content, Sydney! Your dogs are precious!
Did you teach her to do the pressure therapy thing?
Your furbabies are SO LUCKY & Well Loved & Happy ❤🐕🐕🐕
I totally agree pets can be a major positive impact on emotions for a nomad.
My cat is my best friend. Warning me of dangers. Making me laugh. And comforting me when I am sad.
the human-animal bond is so special, particularly with dogs. no, having a dog is not the same as having a human partner, but to me there is something irreplaceable about having a dog you love and who loves you back. that connection is tens of thousands of years in the making, no wonder it's so powerful
I have traveled and am currently traveling with my 2 dogs and my 1 cat. They make it so much more fun😀
You feel better because you are hydrating
I love how your fur babies love walking out in the open free!❤❤❤❤❤
My dog lives in a condo and she super loves it. As long as she gets outside everyday and we turn on the fan for her to chase paper on the floor, she’s a very happy shepherd 😂
Great analysis of the pros and cons of traveling with a fur-baby or two or three. I enjoy your videos. Keep it up!
Love the part about Ella keeping you sane. So sweet! 😍🥹💛
Totally agree with you, having dogs in our lives makes all the difference. Keep enjoying yours ;)
I've never seen a dog park that big - awesome - I am sure the dogs loved it. Maybe do a video on dog parks of America.
I ❤ that the dogs have each other. They look like they LOVE having each other.
Congratulations on your upcoming nuptials. You are an amazing person that brings so much joy to,people with your videos. The dogs are all amazing and I love golden retrievers and would love to have one one day. ❤❤❤
This has been one of my most favorite videos with you! Good information and insight. Thank you.
Aw thank you!! I appreciate that!!
I do a drink everyday too. It’s so important to your gut health. As I age my gut health is so important.
Fantastic video...dogs have such unconditional love for us. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us! 🐕 ❤😊
Sweet little Pearl just chillin’ ❤
Love your vids and shorts!!! You are living my dream life and you are so helpful and inspiring! I love hearing your stories and listening to your podcast! Soon I’ll be buying my own van and pursuing your lifestyle for my own.
Someone is a rolling stone😉 Nothing wrong with that. You are happy and doing self care. I’m jealous. ❤
You mentioned Henry about 100 times 😅. Not judging! It’s cute! It’s love! ❤
It's takes a lot of special care to take care of a dog while living in a van. You, of course are doing an amazing job. 😀
Welcome to my home state. I grew up in Butte where I once saw it snow in June! That’s the continental divide for you. Anyway, your dogs always look happy and healthy. I can see how much they appreciate being able to regularly explore new places. Dogs are perfect road companions.😊
Your dogs are too adorable! Congratulations on the engagement sorry I’m late to congratulating you but congratulations! Love your videos
I don't know much about dog's but I'm pretty sure that yall's dog's are happy as long as they're with y'all ! Be safe 🙏💕
Home is where the people and pets you care about are 😊 I’m sure your pups are happy being out and about with you. My husband and I live in a house, but our 2 fur babies are happy wherever we are
Love your videos and how you have progressed glad you are living life how you choose.
I love vicariously through your adventures!!❤
This is a great video and it’s something on my mind a lot lately. I want to start van traveling next year part time and I really don’t think my dog will be able to go. He just does not enjoy traveling in vehicles at all. He can stay at home with the rest of my family though. He’s 9, will be 10 by the time I will likely get to leave so he needs to be where his vet is and in his comfy beds. I’m thinking seriously about getting a much smaller dog to travel with me because I know I’m going to miss “Tate” so much while I’m on my excursions. He’s also the reason why I get up and get out for walks and why I I talk to people. I would be very secluded without him so I think I might need a travel companion. Tate also loves other animals so I think he’d do really well to have another canine companion around when we are here. It’s a lot to consider and this video is helpful. Thanks! Safe travels!!
Love your channel. Keep inspiring me shining 🫶🏻🥰🥰🥰
That is the life! Omg enjoy every second of this awesome traveling lifestyle! Good for you girl! Thanks so much for sharing! ❤
I watch your channel because I'm fascinated by life in a van. Thanks to you, I'm also learning English, although sometimes you speak very fast and sometimes it's difficult. but I still admire and thank you.
I love driving across country. I live in California (Shasta county) and my son et al, is in DC. I love traveling with my dogs and they love going. All the new places and dogs they get to meet. (My dogs are very social, I have fostered and done Rover)
What is missing is a DOG PARK MAP. If there is one, I haven’t found it.
Make a, “Best dog parks, or places to walk your dog, coast to coast!” 😃
That's a really good point - learn the dog's personality first!! I took my car ride-loving shepherd mix on a 7-week van trip across the US thinking it would make her whole life lol. She loved roaming free in a different place every morning but otherwise hated it. She stared at me all day, every day while I drove like "what exactly are we doing here?" She was OOZING joy when we got home and she got back to her routine. We formed such a special bond on that trip and had the best morning walks - I'm glad she was with me, but she'll stay home next time with my bf for sure 😅
Great video! I had a female golden retriever mix and she was my early warning system and an ice breaker. Totally worth any inconvenience for me! Have fun and safe travels ✌️
Such a beautiful and fulfilling life you are blessed to live. Cheers to you and your canine family. ❤👍
I love coffee the way you do too I always ask for half coffee and half soy milk plus sweetener with ice! My girl!!
I have never heard of van life until I started watching your videos. You make it look like so much fun.
Critters are awesome! I cannot have indoor critters where I currently live, so I feed the outdoor critters. About 15 squirrels, 4 bunnies, numerous chickadees, Cardinals, crows, and the occasional bluejay. I've seen deer, wild turkeys, raccoons, and opossums as well wander past my patio door looking for grub. I open my patio door and they come running for food. It's a pretty cool feeling doing my part to help, especially in the winter when it's hard for them to find food.
Please keep making these videos they make me feel so good inside :)
R u serious!! That dog park looks absolutely amazing!!
I travel with 4 shelties in a 24 foot class C. They love it. The dog hair though....wow!
Thanks for the New upload! Your videos and insights are the Bess! 💪🏼 you’re great. Dogs 🐕 totally worth it. A lot of work but worth it. I have 2 a big girl and a little old man. Your dogs are spoiled! And it’s kool
Love your dogs and I wouldn't be alive if it wasn't for my dogs. I would totally live in a van with my dogs. Yours dogs look so happy and their so lucky to have you! Be safe guys and love your videos!!!
🎉 walkies! 🎉 totally kerp you sane, even when the dogs find the only mud for miles 😂
You love & take excellent care of the dogs/ kids. Thanks for the informative video covering the aspects. Very helpful.
My favorite shot was the shadow silhouette of you & Pearl.
For some reason it reminded me of Science Theater. 😊
Oh my GOODNESS!! I’m not sure if anyone else had the reaction I did, but when you were describing Ella as your Souldog.. WHEW I just BLUBBERED !! Sadly my own Souldog is losing his battle to cancer so I want to make sure I give him all the same love and support he’s given me!! He’s almost 13 so we’ve had quite a run me and my doofers!! I absolutely LOVE that you have dogs with you!! I live in Savannah, GA, but I’m from Traverse City, MI. Every time we go home, the dogs come too. It’s a 2 day road trip and it is TOUGH with all our crap for a week, me and the hubs, our 3 year old, and the furbebe. But it’s feasible and we make it as comfy as possible for all and it always goes so well, we’d never consider leaving the dog behind!! They adapt SO WELL, number one. And number two.. there is NOWHERE IN THE WORLD THEY WANT TO BE except right next to you. Duh. I LOVE how you’re living. I think you’re one hell of an example. I’m excited to keep watching the journey now that I’ve found you!!! What a lady you are!!!!!!!!! Please give Ella and Pearl and Finn an extra smooch for me!!! 😂😂😂
Excellent information! Thank you for sharing your experience! I'm looking at van life in the future and have been planning on getting a dog to take with me. This gives me lots to consider.
You are not only beautiful....you are warm and considerate.....way to go🤗
I miss the Montana fresh water and fresh air ❤ I’m so happy to see you thriving in the 406! ❤
Love this video of yours. Love those dogs and have a fun fulfilling life. 💚💛🧡💙
I can tell you really love them and they return it. Something you can’t lie about. I’m new to the channel and am enjoying it. Thanks💜
Just found your channel, you have great advice! I personally don't do van life but I live alone in a very small town in Mexico in a very Mexican house rental. My last dog passed away and my new dog is a rescue (I've had her since she was 5 weeks old) while I walked her every day as a pup she is very high strung and reactive and it's damn near impossible to walk her in the neighborhood now as an adult (in rural Mexico) there's so many dogs with and without owners that roam free plus there's cats chickens cows horses etc. While I'd never part with her you're so right that a dog can sometimes be very isolating, I have found a puppy daycare that does boarding I can send her to when I need a break/vacation and she does well there and loves it lol but it's not cheap.. but I can't imagine paying for an Airbnb and a house sitter! I'm very grateful I found that place but I'm in the same situation. While I live in the Los Cabos area my house doesn't have hot water and many other amenities that would make it hard to hire a house sitter other than locals which are lovely and would do their best but most people here work 12 hour days + usually they do some education/gym/social activities and it's too long to leave her and my cat. You're spot on!
I love how Princess Pearl gets served dinner on the bed: just as it should be!
living in an rv I can relate to a majority of this! the benefit of an rv over a van is we can leave the dogs in the rv with AC on and take our car to a national park and do what we want and know they are safe. I'm sure leaving a van with 3 dogs is much more nerve-wracking that leaving an rv in an rv park. dogs are the best way to make friends in a life-style that can be pretty solo!!
This video is beneficial for my travels with my small, but very opinionated dog. She’s afraid of nothing. Her recent brawl was with a pitbull that took her around the neck and threw on the ground from my vehicle. How many ways can I say how wrong that was?!
So I do understand the reaction, aggressive, kind of soulmate in a pup.
I also related well with the part of bonding with a dog . I called her my Velcro dog she is with me for everything and knows my next move. She speaks English, or at least understands it. If I want to say something to someone and don’t want her to know yet I have to say it by spelling certain words. You’re right there are limitations with a pet, but the “pros” outweigh the “cons” for me for sure.
A lot of dogs love car rides... a house on wheels, why would they hate it and plenty of new smells along the way.
I enjoy your videos so much. I don't live a van life, but it sure does capture my interest. I can fantasize the life for me. At 71 yrs, most likely will never happen. Trying to talk my hubs into renting one for trial fishing trips for him and for a base camp for me and our big Lab to chill & read, etc. Love, love your new van. My neighbors up the road are working on a build out. I share your ideas.
I don’t live in a van but my dogs go everywhere with me. Vacations included. Thanks for the video. 💜🐾💜
Not just about van life but there is certainly a connection between RUclips van lifers and dogs. Vanwives, Regretlyss, Nikki Delventhal, Ame in a Van, Tyler and Todd, all have dogs, just to mention a few.
Couple of retirees here drinking iced coffee year round - mixing a couple of different SB flavors from the grocery. Occasionally going hot if out near SB or Biggby in your hometown. Love your vids and most recent life changes.
My little rescue is a reactive Chihuahua… I KNOW he restricts me social-wise but we both like just being with each other and he is soooooo totally different when it’s just him and I … but he sure has his triggers and becomes a little “cujo” towards people but not to other dogs! He wants to play or just be dogs around each other. But I DO have to watch very closely his clues when we are around people. The “good” sure outweighs the reactive behavior because life wouldn’t be the same without him!
Just a FYI, the Petrified Forest and Painted Desert National Parks in Arizona are dog friendly. We were just there this past weekend with our dog. Of course, they do require that the dogs are leashed, and you clean up their poo. We actually saw that the Petrified Forest had water fountains for dogs. 😊
Thank you so much for sharing! I have watched so many different videos about van life or similar with different vehicles. I’m sure there are challenges like with all things but you seem to have joy and peace. Can you provide more content about the training process with Ella in regards to van life and hygiene with dogs in van life? Thank you for sharing and congratulations! I pray that you, your husband and the dogs(family) have a beautiful life! ❤️
You crack me up when you bust on all those rude people who have nothing better than to leave rude comments from behind the safety of the computer. It is really f’in great!!!
Really no better protective measure then having a dog! Invest the time to train them (even just basic obedience - I do behavior and theory and 4 lessons) for client's it sure makes a difference. I've had 4 Goldens since the mid 90's super companions!
Great video ❤ my dog Rolly loves travelling with myself and my partner. We opt for a pick-up/ tent set up, which works perfectly for us as we're not travelling full time. He curls up in the footwell or my lap while we drive and love getting snuggly in the tent. Also, he alerts us to anything he deems necessary ❤ whatever works for your family.
If you are both HOT in western Montana and mobile, there are LOTS of increased elevation locations nearby that are a significantly cooler options, many of which include various types of camping/overnighting options…
Easy to adjust locations not only large and seasonal, but locally to find what suits you and your entourage/pack on a nearly daily basis using weather apps. Monitoring the weather is always wise when mobile living…
I enjoy your videos and I see you as being pretty spunky, and you don’t typically describe yourself that way. Interesting.
Carry on.
A major CON to a close family member pet is when time takes them away. 😢 Major heartbreak. 😢
Yes, it is undoubtedly worth it, but it doesn’t at all feel like it when it happens.
The video we didn’t know we needed! Very insightful. I’m saving for a van so I can hit the road with my senior dog and show her the good life. ❤
Also I can’t believe Pearl would eat all of that food 😂
So love and look forward to your videos. We have a wonderful pup, but can't bring him with us on our adventures. When we leave him alone, he is a barker, and even to go out for a quick dinner without him is impossible. We don't take long trips so we aren't separated from him for long, but I do wish we could bring him. He was one of the big reasons we purchased a van - so we could bring him along. We are fortunate to have our daughter who will care for him when we travel.
I was wondering what you do about Vet visits for them? just routine checkups and routine meds.
THANKS SO MUCH for taking the time to create the free camping map on your website!
I live in a 32 ft fifth wheel with two slide outs I do not travel because I don't have a truck to pull the trailer plus I like staying in one spot. The RV place where I live now is RV mobile home park it's on the oldest side but I'll tell you what it's a lot cheaper than the one about a little over a block away. I have a very big yard and I also have it fenced with removable fencing. It was great when I had my little dog who lived to be over 17 years old I could just open up the door and he could go outside I didn't use the RV steps I actually had them put up inside and I put cinder blocks as steps. Which are much safer than a metal step and the top part of the step right before you step into the RV. It was several cinder blocks to give me a wider porch area so I wouldn't fall off I also had to put some of these round pieces of cement up because my little dog was losing his eyesight and he fell off from the top of the step and I was afraid he would hurt himself so the area right before you step in was a good size. Last summer I had a porch made that's
8 ft long and 4ft wide. My steps are about 4 ft wide, and is enclosed with a half wall That's solid aluminum and then the upper part is just opened up and I got 3 white blinds. They can be opened up, or closed for privacy and I do have a good size platform. My porch is big enough to where I have a sitting area I actually have the bench from the bedroom out there.

Our golden doodle, Murph, LOVES traveling with us. Unfortunately while visiting my in laws in the SoCal high desert, he was taken. It was on August 18th and we still haven’t found him. It’s been so much more devastating than we even could have imagined.
Love tons of milk in my coffee!!!
Love that same coffee w/ brown sugar. ❤
Lattes are actually served hot 😂😂 Your having a Iced Latte and that's also a drink and you don't have to explain your drink choice to anyone 😊
You guys should come travel around Australia for awhile...you're the reason we are selling up and going travelling next year 😁
Loving the longer videos. Keep doing what you are doing.
Always enjoy all your videos
Your coffee concoction sounds delicious. Here is a little delicious drinky drinky alternative. Rumchata or Bailey's, with coffee ice cubes. Delicious 😋
Hi sydney, can you do a diet/excercise routine while living the van life? Would be super interessting!
I love watching your videos ❤
Thank you so much for all of those answers to our questions
Wow, that dog park is awesome.
I drink Chai Latte with skim milk and I love it so Cheers😊😊😊😊😊😊
If I was a dog...I'd love living in your van and all the freedom it would bring!
I had my Golden Retriever boy, Liam , my ❤ dog for 10 years when I moved into my first home by myself many years ago and you are correct. You aren’t alone, they are funny (raised mine from a puppy). I had a huge backyard to throw the ball and run around. Met so many people on our walks. Kids loved him all over. My niece loved brushing him out and brushing his teeth. Photos of those two in the dentist office on the wall for the kids to see.
We weren’t “van-lifers” as there was no such thing back then, however. We traveled together except for one overnight when he stayed with a friend. He flew with me. I had an SUV and we went everywhere and back then it was more difficult to find dog friendly accommodations. They do help open up conversations. However mine, I swear would lick 👅 something to death if they were a burglar. Mine was alert though when we drove into the country and there were big animals in the field ( many white with black spots ) or the orange and white traffic cones or sticks. He was always wanting to “go with Mom” or “truck?”.
The ice cream shack at the end of the subdivision only open in summer months wasn’t a bark but hopeful anxiety. I am a lover of vanilla ice cream and so we would share many an ice cream 🍦. I miss my boy, the greatest fur baby. 😢
This is spot on… my puppy who ALWAYS traveled with me passed last November . Going forward I will be traveling alone because of the NP rules. Also it is safer not having the dog with me as I no longer need to walk the dog in the middle of the night or first thing in the morning
More and more every day I want to live off grid or van living ❤
Gee couldnt you of found a bigger place outside forr your dogs to play?😂💛😂. J/k. Love you and your videos!!!! You are doing what me and a lot of ppl wish they could do! Safe travels to you both❣️❣️
This was a lot of good advice.. I'm 53 and I really want to do this❤️
I loved this segment. As someone considering a traveling lifestyle with a dog. I appreciate the pros and cons. ❤ Ella hopping along at the end- "poor van life dog," "she looks so miserable." 😂😂😂
Thanks so much for this video. We live part time in our van for now (2-3 days a week for work), but I really want a dog. Fortunately, we aren’t finished with our DIY conversion so we can still find space for a crate. We had a dog for 16 1/2 years but she passed earlier this year. Your last point is very important . . . Doggies need their walks and it’s good for us to get outside too!!
PS - Pearl reminds me so much of our Polly who passed away. She’s so adorable
Thank you for sharing these thoughts. I found it really helpful. I have a dog and am thinking about this lifestyle whether now with him or in the future. ❤
