    Just another day... That was much easier to swallow than the shootings and cross fires. Long Beach, W Memphis and Phoenix. Trucking is an adventure. ;-)

    unicorns are more common. Some folks have a dog in the truck, but in they don't pull tanks, and in most cases they have been in trucking long enough to know where they can and can't go with the dog. As a newbie starting out your choice is going to be to go with some crap company with very low pay and bring the dog, or leave the dog at home and get a good job.

    I dont think your over the road trainer would enjoy having a pitbull in the cab with him.

    It's slighy irritatating if someone's dog is barking in their truck but my question is how do they not kick the dog out of the truck

    Is this a trailer for the upcoming Iluvcats reality show? ;)
