Dogs In CPs

We just stayed at the Riverside CP in Mudgee where every second camper seemed to have a dog from an Irish Wolf Hound all the way down to little yap yaps, we never heard one bark the whol...

Going up North with 2 Dogs
(Preview)
We are intending in May to head from Adelaide up to Darwin and then across to Cairns then down the coast back home. My question : is there any precautions for the dogs we need to take other than the having their shots up to date to ensure they stay safe from diseases and ticks and so on. Thanks in advance.

Hot days
(Preview)
CAUTION FOR DOG OWNERS: Please don't walk your dog along the pavement on hot days like today! They can end up with nasty burns on the pads of their feet, like the example pictured. If the pavement is too hot for your palm, it's too hot for their feet!

They did not kick me out, they are just insisting that the budgie is not allowed to be taken out of the van! That means that I can't sit outside reading, doin...

Our loved female Corgi passed away on 5th November. She was a gentle, friendly wise and peaceful dog, who I am sure could tell time. A seasoned traveller she (and we) enjoyed many travels together. She is being and will continue to be missed.

Dog owners, we've all been doing it wrong. I've always known that my kelpie doesn't like to be hugged, but there are millions of dog owners who don't realise that most dogs react the same way. In fact most dog owners have no idea how to recognise the signs of stress in their pets (eg drooping ears, licking...
