Any advice for owning a dog OTR?

Yes, but if you get a real dog , this isn’t a problem.

 

Yea thats the thing I bonded with three in my lifetime relatively medium to large. They hardly needed to make a sound unless painted into a corner. IF they did make noise pay attention. lol.

 

The dog adjusts to your schedule, so unless you bring a puppy with you there won’t be “extra” stops.

 

Yea im the same way. Not too often but i take my mini dachshund. I'd be more concerned with what wagon you pull. Reefer? Might be a bad idea, you know how long some of the grocery places can hold you. Try explaining to your company why you got booted for having the dog take a dump in the lot (even if you cleaned it)

 

This girl is weird. I’ve only had her for about 6 months. I friend of mine rescued her from a puppy mill about a year or so ago. She was pretty pathetic. She was as skinny as can be and no eye contact. She still has problems with specific body types ( she’s not aggressive but skiddish around some people, where otherwise she is happy go lucky). She rarely barks , like almost never. I’ve heard her bark 3 times since I’ve been her caretaker. 2 times with one of my cats and once when she wanted to play with the goats we just got.

The shedding drives me crazy, but I can clean more often. I do plan on getting more German Shepherds, but my girl doesn’t have to do it anymore.

 

My old dog used to come on the truck with me before she passed a few years ago. She was too smart for her own good. she figured out how to roll down the windows at night when I was idling the truck during the summer and would jump out of the truck. After hunting her down a few times I quit taking her on the truck LOL. I would love to take the dogs I have now on my truck but they're huskies and a German Shepherd so yeah not going to happen lol.

 

Was at the beacon in Fargo last week waiting outside . A Grady Hudson Volvo nosed in, parked next to wash w curtains pulled.
Passenger door opens and a older woman comes down and w the door open I can see a small dog waiting to be lifted down. She clips on a leash and brings it down to the grass.
She did this 6 more times!
Seven teacup dogs traveling in that truck!

 

I found it to be alot of work and worry. I like to workout and go to the movies or Restraunts other than Dennys while of the road . The Fur got everywhere and the thought of the Apu not coming on while I went somewhere was to much . I've had 14 years with my old dog and hes always happy to see me when I get home .

 

That is a sign of mental illness.......oh wait......she is a Truck Driver.....never mind....all good!
