Rose is really, really cute. Congrats. Actually, I was guessing you are going to have another baby. You do, but in another way. I have 2 black UK Labs and know how loving they are 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
We are also full-time in our van with three kids and got a blue staffie 6 months ago. Honestly, it's so beautiful to watch her with the kids 😊 congratulations & welcome to your forever family, Rosie 🎉
Try some second hand salvage places for the windows or as people have said take a trip to Germany or ring them direct and pay postage to get them delivered.
Just a note for when you're at "base camp" in Garnham's - there's 3 vets a lot closer to where you're parked up than the vet centre in Ipswich. One of them is literally 1 mile down the road!
Hi both as an ex kitchen fitter we would always use a half round file to cut back the laminate cut it slightly longer than required then use the file if you have a block plane you can plane it down to within 1mm then finish with the file good luck!!! Dogs bring so much to a family you absolutely made the right decision, I have four dogs and yes they can restrict you at times but the positives win hands down, Rosie is just the right dog for your family, enjoy😊😊
It's about time you got around to buying some Swedish wheel trims for those scruffy wheels, especially if you're going to put it on show...Smart wheels make the whole vehicle look so much tidier & cared for...
Dogs are a great addition to any family! Rosie will have a wonderful, wonderful life with you guys + family. Many great times ahead filled with love. She'll be the cement that naturally binds you all together for many, many years to come. Soo happy for you all to have such a beautiful girl in your lives.
I fitted slightly curved glass into my flat panels, the rubbers will take up quite a bit, and a big hammer with a piece of wood along the welded edge can also work wonders, try a camper van builder / converter, someone who does panel vans,
Be prepared for separation issues unless you start very early training with her. They can be very clingy and obsessive, which is cute as a puppy but will have her howling continuously when separated from you if you’re not careful. Good luck 👍🏻
Absolutely Wonderful!!! Don't listen to the Debbie Downer comments. She is young and will adapt because this will be normal life for her, and she will be well loved!!!! Congratulations!!!
I am really happy you got another dog she will never replace Charlie as you know but the joy a dog gives and the unconditional love it gives knows no bounds and with her being so young am sure she will get used to traveling with no issue's she will have a great life with your family she's absolutely gorgeous all the best I enjoyed yor video ❤
We have a 5yr old golden shower cocker spaniel and he is the best dog. He marked the best friend to children of all ages! But they are prone to separation anxiety and our boy has it pretty bad but he travels everywhere with us in the motorhome 😊 x
We’ve always had labradors which have been brilliant. We look after our daughters cocker spaniel…. She is a totally loveable, cuddly friendly dog but has so much more energy than we’re used to so be prepared for a totally different dog.. they are so good with children . So Happy for you all. ❤️❤️
I like cocker spaniels. They’re gentle and don’t shed hair like some dogs. I’m shocked that Mercedes are being awkward about shipping windows to the UK. There must plenty of breakers yards with spares or try Coparts.
Congratulations on your new puppy , Rosie it’s great for a pup to grow with the children and learns the Children to be kind & responsible on looking after an animal, also I think you should get a collar that goes around her chest and shoulder blades , get you r going to get the windows that open ❤
She is super cute, she reminds me of our black Cocker Digby when he was a pup. He loves being away in the caravan, I am biased but they are the best dogs in the world. Mad as a box of frogs but so loyal and friendly.
That’s great news and welcome to the channel Rosie. We lost our 15yr old Westie about 2 months before you posted the sad news about your Charlie, and it was a sad watch. We’ve had 2 Cocker Spaniels over the years, and we’ve just adopted a now 5 month old Orange Sable Cocker 2 weeks ago as his previous family couldn’t look after him anymore. We’ve renamed him Arnie, and he’s settling in to his new home really well, and it’s a joy to have a dog back in our lives again. Our last Cocker was also all black, and she was a lovely natured dog, and we volunteered for the Pets As Therapy charity visiting the children’s ward at our local hospital. They are a wonderful breed with children, hard work as they need so much stimulation and exercise, but very rewarding and loyal dogs. I’m sure Rosie will love her new life and adventures in your family.
Glad Arnie is settling in well 🙂 we had Charlie from 8 months which meant all the toilet training was already done. So this is a whole new learning curve xx
If you're having difficulties with Mercedes and obtaining genuine glass, there might be another way... If you search for companies that do plant glazing (i.e. bull-dozers, excavators, tractors,... etc) they can cut laminated glass to fit. You might have to search a bit, as companies that just do modern bonded windscreens might not have the skills. You would cut the panel to the inner line of the rebate so that you keep the rebate piece. An I shaped rubber seal would fit over the metal edge, and this rubber can be cut to any length and glued to make a complete piece that fits. The glass is the cut of fit into the rubber. Essentially this is how most classic car windscreens and windows are fitted. Been a while since I've seen it done, but kids vanadilsed a bunch of machines on site and the glazier fixed them all. Good luck. PS: the puppy is adorable.

Oh how beautiful Dora the explorer is! We lost our black cocker a few years ago, her name was Ali, she was 15 years, with dementia, blindness and back problems. Age took its toll. She went everywhere with us, did so much exploring , she was our baby and we actually bought her in Spain where we lived for 15 years. Not one day goes past without us referring to those special moments with Ali. Xxx They are a great best friend soul mate for you and your children! Beautiful family member dwho will give you so much love and affection. Im so pleased you have a black cocker ❤
Our cocker is 3/4 worker, 1/4 show, amazing companion, a beautiful nature, but can be demanding, needs constant companionship and exercise. He's shortly going to be 8 years old and still not slowing down! Have fun!
What a cutie. We have a Friese Stabij. Thats a Dutch dog , looks like a golden retriever but then in black and white. Enjoy the new member of youre family. . Is it a possibility to get in contact with a German Mercedes workshop and let them order it, then go over to Germany when they arrive and let them install them ? Yeah the table well you did youre best.
Congratulations, you are such a lovely caring family Rosie is lucky to be with you all. It's great for the young uns and Rosie to all grow up together. Cheers, Poth.
Is there such a thing as a truck scrap yard where you might find a truck with the windows, or have you any friends / patreons in Germany who could obtain the parts and ship them to you?
Love little Rosie. What a wonderful addition to your lovely family. We have a 9 yr old Westie who is our best mate and he loves the van. ( except when the windscreen wipers are on!) We could not imagine life without our Wilson. I have followed your travels since you started your lorry build and I am very impressed with what you have achieved. Reference your side windows. Why not get 5mm acrylic windows made up. they can be curved if neccessary and easily bonded with PU adhesive. A good sign maker or sheet plastic supplier should be able to make them for you. I had some made for a hi top T5 I converted a few years ago. Good luck with your puppy training and hope to see you at camper campout at the week end.
I'm not surprised I've had dogs my whole life, after losing our 13 year old lab three years ago we managed a year without one in lives that was long enough. Congratulations 🎉❤
Cockers with out a doubt are the best andthe top adventure companions we have 2 and currently converting our van for us all and our new addition 8 week old baby boy. Best tip is trainning everything possible they will be your best friend for it too. Enjoy Rosie ❤️
Wow! The wife and I thought it was going to be either a baby or a puppy. Fantastic news on little Rosie puppy. Wife loves the name as she's also called Rosie! ❤ Have you tried contacting Mercedes HQ UK as they maybe able to add them to another parts delivery to the UK. Bit of food press for them. 👍
I have two cocker spinel's Daisy and Darcy. Mine are show cockers though we don't show them they are just part of the family . You made exactly the right choice for your family .Congratulations on your new fur baby family member. .Happy fun days ahead.
Hi guys we've got a sprocker spaniel she's nearly 2 now she's been very easy to train they are very clever dogs we also have a new grandson living with us and his mum ,lexi is the dogs name and she's brilliant with the baby ( although we always watch her around him he's 9month old now ) she's a great pet you've done the right thing well done guys the gowerz Portsmouth xx ❤
What an absolutely gorgeous pup. Your fish and chips had my mouth watering, British fish and chips (Haddock is the best) is one of the few things I miss about the UK.
Omg Rosie you beautiful little girl - ok, so we had a gorgeous black lab till 4 years ago - we already had our working cocker spaniel, shortly added in a Shih Tzu into the mix & 18 months ago we got a cockerpoo - Rosie’s head shape is definitely a show cocker - omg I love her. IMHO hvg a puppy lab & a puppy WCS & a puppy cockerpoo are VERY similar. Nightmares lol…. I’d take Rosie on some ‘lorry’ journeys just so she can get used to travelling & make it a happy experience for her with lots of laughter & excitement ❤ the absolute best of luck ❤️
Just to let you know imo. The Sleeper/Passenger cabs don’t usually have windows there designed like to keep the cab structure. As far as I am aware, as I have never seen one with windows on the road ever.
Use a fine file to shape the worktop edges. Glue the first one and leave it to set then file flat the ends. Then stick the second and file to the first carefully. Hope that helps. 👍🏻
Oh my......you've made me smile so much.......had to pause the video to say how happy I am for you.....such a wonderful addition to your family......so pleased for you and the children.......she is beautiful 🤩 .
What an adorable pup, sorry for the loss of your you old boy, i can relate to your decision as my furbaby is coming up to 16 and extremely needy, he's blind, deaf and is loosing function in his backlegs. 😊
Rosie is adorable, I’ll bet the kids are over the moon. We have a black lab called Tyson who is an assistance dog to my son and he has made so much difference to him. We also have a chocolate lab, just over a year old who a bit of a nutcase.
TBH I dip in and out of these channels. I often wondered what happened to Charlie. Rosie is gorgeous and you just cannot comprehend the amount of happiness she will bring you.
Congratulations on the new family member, Rosie is gorgeous. I'm sure she will bring years of extra happiness to your family. It's a shame about the windows, not a good advert for the company really. Have you tried looking at any commercial scrap yards, maybe some cabs with windows in you can get. Plus as others have mentioned, a trip to Germany. You may even find some extra cool bits for Tori.
I don't have a dog, I have 5 dogs, if you have one you can have 3-5 outside, you still have to regardless of the weather. Seems like your next trip will be to Germany to buy windows for your truck, should be able to find a company there that can install them
Amazing, our last dog was a cocker spaniel and he was a wonderful part of the family. We rescued him and he struggled with anxiety so train lots from a young age. At Christmas we got a miniature poodle, he is now 6 months old and the best decision we ever made. He has just had his first groom and has started losing puppy teeth, we feed on a raw diet and it is working so well. We used nutriment puppy food but you need freezer space for it!
hi rik and kiera and kids had an amazing time in sharm el sheik back home now we have a 5 year old springer spaniel i bought him for the wie when he was 12 weeks old he is gorgeous amazing and very hypo even at the age of 5 but i wouldnt be without my little man charlie it is great to be greated by him every evening when i get home from work he will make a great addition to your family and you will be so glad you got her all the best chris
🙂 We had a group BBQ today.. there was an almighty hail shower this morning beforehand! Thankfully it stayed dry during, however each time the sun went in, it was Cold 🥶 😂😂 Roll on summer (on the continent 😉😁) Oh and congratulations on furry child number 4 😁👍
My daughter has nonverbal Autism so having a friend/dog is vital! We did Rv life 2020 through last year ( I'm redoing a boat now). After our Chi (Lopez) and beagle (Luca) passed on before traveling I said no more to animals. UNTIL we made it to Dallas,TX. I'd been searching for a blue Frenchie or a Neopolitan Mastiff but went the happy middle when I spotted Sage, the blue bully. She was named Mulan at the kennel. My daughter is still A HUGE Dora fan, so I almost named her that. Being Friday the 13th when I picked up our blue beast, I thought Texas, and world, needed a good saging...😊 traveling with smaller animals is easier. But protection wise, well, we can agree that Sage was it. Hi 2 all yall from us ❤❤❤
Ignore the haters, i appreciate your honesty. Cocker spanials are the best, ours is 12 year old, the character they have is amazing! Rosie will fit in beautiful, shes adorable
Welcome to the Touring family Rosie! I remember the videos from the build and you getting stuck, seems like thats been the weather ever since then here in Suffolk! Bet you didn't miss it whilst off in Spain and Morocco 😂
Aww rosie is absolutely beautiful i didwell up when i saw charlie be great companion for teddy and the other 2 rich if you use a sharp chissel to trim the edges it bettr than a knife and shouldnt split
Aw, welcome Rosie, was pretty obvious the reason you rushed back , how great 👍 😍 Also soooo pleased you've been allowed back on Garnhams field after what happened 😂 Tori, looks great , good luck with the edging 😊 !
When my mum had a cocker spaniel she pegged her ears together on the top of her head when eating. This stopped her long ears flapping in the food and getting covered in it 😅
Ah that made me emotional, we had a black cocker just like that, she lived till 12 yrs old, we lost her 5 yrs ago, they have a beautiful temperament and are lovely with children but they are hard to train, so you may have your work cut out there. Our son has just got a working cocker, they’ve found as soon as he gets very excitable they calm him down by putting him in his crate, it also gets him used to being in it for when they go out, they need a lot of sleep as a puppy so being in the crate is good for them. Looking forward to seeing you all and Rosie and the Truck at Campout. 😊 xx
Rosie is a cutie, we also have our little Rosie and she's one of the best things that have happened for us. She's great with travelling and vanlife too! Congratulations! 🎉
I have a cocker Spaniel here in Thailand, the Biggest stress when travel is finding a suitable stop to exercise a Spaniel . It’s easy when you’re in a house , you know all the good local spots but when I travel around Thailand. My only stress while driving is finding the next good field for Chimmi
She is.❤❤❤❤ I've had spaniels for over 25 years have a show cocker called Bella Tips Plenty of toys time with her but get her used to being on her own. But my biggest tip is don't feed her to higher protein food or it makes them hiper and will bounce of the walls Feed her low protein as not going to be working. Enjoy she's amazing ❤
Great to see new family member I'm retired in Thailand have always had dogs all have past on living their lives to the end Absolutely loved them unfortunatey can't get any more because my wife and I are in our late sixties if anything should happen to us they wouldn't be cared for like we cared for them
We have a Sprocker and made sure we got her while we was still working and not on holidays so that she could get used to our routine, they are a lovely family dog
I am watching this episode on May 9 at 6pm and it is 14 degrees celdius a 2 weeks before Winter .The Autumn leaves are just starting to fall.Hopefully you will have successfully installed the windows by now. How long do the children need booster seats?
Awww I guessed that was the surprise, that’s beautiful. We picked up our little pup this week too, a little cavapoo pup and he’s gorgeous as Rosie is. They bring you so much fun, and such a big part of the family x
Hi se you on A12 approx 2hrs ago congratulations on getting a new member to the family .is it worth looking at lorry breakers for your windows best of luck
