In this video I take our dog Hobbes out for an overnight camp. After the passing of Kelly's mother I have been working detailing boats in Gig Harbor, WA and Kelly has been busy dealing with her Moms house. Hobbes ended up in Animal Control so we rescued him from there and have been deciding if we should re-home him or adopt him ourselves. We finally decided to keep him with us. He is 12 years old and has a few health issues but we still feel we can provide him with a happy, healthy, loving life on the road.
Thank You For Being Here
*My name is Brian. I started living full time in a self built camper van in 2014 in my hometown of San Diego, CA. I hit the road full-time in 2015 to pursue seasonal work and travel around the U.S. I find free camping on public land and enjoy photography, hiking, biking, and kayaking in nature. Join me on my adventures.
Thanks for watching!

That's so nice to give Hobbes his last great adventure travelling with you guys.

Last great adventure? Is this an old dog?

@joharmon2148 Год назад

Sweet pup, glad your giving him a joyous life. Sorry to hear Kelly lost her Mom❤

@mirandamom1346 Год назад

Dear Hobbs, Take it from someone even older than you are: the life you lose can never be replaced, but change can sometimes open a pretty great chapter. I think you’ve landed on your paws thanks to some beautiful humans. Enjoy!

@AnasCorner Год назад

I know you meant this for Hobbs, but I just lost my dad 3 days ago and your message has touched me deeply. Thank you so much.

Once he finds out what he’s getting into he will love it. Best of luck.

I am sorry for the loss of Kellie's Mother. It was really good to see you two and really awesome that you have taken Hobbes into your lives. 👍👍

Good for you guys from an old dog lover and owner. The gift ur giving that guy is priceless

@jwrangler12 Год назад

You guys are doing a great thing. Hobbs is lucky that you care. He is a very handsome puppy!

He's a beautiful schnauzer. He couldn't have gotten two better people. True van lifers!!!❤

He's a Kerry Blue Terrier, but they do favor the schnauzer...especially with the similar haircut.

@@ValerieGriner oh wow! He sure does look like a schnauzer. My bad! He's so darn cute!

@bonniepwtf Год назад

I have been hoping since you 1st told of of Hobbes & Kelly's loss, that you would keep him. I know it will be an adjustment but what a wonderful thing for him to live out this later part of his life with you guys. His hearing loss & vision issues might have made it very difficult to find a good home with others. Can't wait to see more adventures. ✌️💚

@cat3crazy Год назад

Thank you for adopting Hobbs. Some people would have put him down just because he is old and has issues. To some they are just animals and when they require assistance, it's time for them to go. I can't stand people like that. When you get a pet, it's a commitment to take care of them for their natural life. No just until you no longer want them. All of 3 of my cats came from people who didn't want them.

@suzanneta8 Год назад

Hobbs is so chill...what an adventure for him.. it's better than rehoming him to strangers. Best wishes to the threesome!

@soonerjhtravels Год назад

Thanks for giving Hobbes the chance to travel with you guys, Im sure he will love it as much as you guys do!

@snowbirdlady8496 Год назад

I'm so happy you are adopting Hobbs! There are a few adaptations to make camping with dogs, but as long as they are with their people, they are happy. I help in a rescue group and all the shelters are full, foster homes are full, and it's hard to get dogs adopted. More people are dumping their "family pets" than are interested in adopting. Especially for older dogs with some of the stuff that comes with age. Hobbs is going to have a good life traveling with you!

@carmenmartinez2882 Год назад

I hear you, it makes me so angry, they’re not disposable! I don’t buy I only rescue and I have 2, one is from the local county shelter ( it is a kill shelter although they try their best not to) he’s 16 years old! He’s taken care of me all these years, now is my time to repay. The other is 5, from the streets, most likely dumped, she’s been with me for 2 years now. Thanks for doing what you do. Final words are adopt, adopt, spay and neuter, rescued pets are the best.

@heather482 Год назад

He's grounding earthing. It will help him heal and live longer. Put your feet on the ground and see how much better you feel. Hobbs is doing what comes natural. Smart dog.

@moretea8314 Год назад

That’s such great news, Hobbes will bring a new element to your travels and it’s such a great adventure for him. To be out of the road, in the back country so much better than being in a house with 1 or 2 walks a day. All the best, Simon (Suffolk, England).

I loved this! We adopted my mother-in-law's 15 year old dog after her death. She has been camping 3 times so far. She seems to like camping, but does not like the driving. But she's getting better every time. Best of luck on this new adventure!

Our condolences to Kelly on the loss of her Mother. The dog is mellow and a wonderful dog. So glad you two are taking care of him.

@user-ek4il1om2d Год назад

Congratulations on becoming a family of three! You can buy a tether for Hobbes that will plug right in to the seatbelt and clip to the back of a dog harness. All of mine ride in one, keeps them in their seats😊 Mine all love to go camping!

@margiemurray2147 Год назад

I was going to suggest the same thing and also suggest getting a harness that way he doesn't have the clip hanging down around his neck in case they need to make sure he doesn't run after a squirrel. I think Hobbs barking was letting everyone know hey I'm here and welcome to the campground. Happy trails

@user-ek4il1om2d Год назад

@@margiemurray2147 my favorite is Ruffwear Front Range harness, I clip leashes to the loop in front so it acts as a no-pull harness and use the back loop for the seatbelt clip

Never thought you would not keep Hobbes. Whether it's sticks N' bricks or a van...there will always be adjustments you make for having a dog. The advantages in terms of the loving pay back, is always a priceless gift. Kelly's Mom is smiling down on all of you. His wagging tail says it all. You are good humans.❤❤❤❤❤
