Pookie & Oso, the traveling pomeranians!
This blog is dedicated in memory of Pookie, he is greatly missed.

We have spent a lot of time traveling with our boys in our coach. It has worked so well because the boys have been able to be with us and we haven't had to leave them behind.

They've been to the Icefields Parkway and even all the way up to New Brunswick. They've hung out at Glacier National Park, Yellowstone National Park, Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park, Grand Canyon National Park North and South Rims, Acadia National Park, Grand Teton National Park, Kootenay & Yoho National Parks, Smoky Mountains National Park, Mount Rushmore National Park, Arches National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, Capitol Reef National Park, Zion National Park, Canyonlands National Park, Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve, Colorado National Monument, Mesa Verde National Park, Rocky Mountain National Park, Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument,

They've even been on the Lewis & Clark National Historic Trail in Great Falls, Montana and in Idaho

They've been to Quebec, Ottawa, Montreal, Calgary, Banff, Jasper, Ontario, British Columbia, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Missouri, Arkansas, Tennessee, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virginia, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island including Cape Cod, Michigan and Puerto Penasco, Mexico.

They aren't worn out though, they just hang out in the comfort of their motorhome enjoying life. They never knew where their paws were going to touch down next. But they didn't care as long as they were with us.

Josee, I am so sorry about your loss.  Pets are truly family members...and I wish they lived longer, but their memories live on in our hearts! :)  Your pictures of "the boys" are beautiful!! Take care.

Hello Jose, Thanks you for sharing this wonderful tribute, they are both cuties and I am so sorry for your loss. All me to say, I know all too well about it. Not going there. The babies are so great and the photos are exceptional as well. Some great travel photos of the boys. I loved the upbeat nature of something that was so hard for you. It shows your courage and most especially the love that you had for Pookie. Not worry he will be excited to see you one again as you meet at the Rainbow Bridge.

What sweet little fellows!  I'm sure you miss Pookie but from the photos it's obvious that you loved him very much and gave him a wonderful life.

William-You are so right about seeing each other again at the Rainbow Bridge (there's a tear jerker)  Thanks for your comments.

Maureen-He was my little buddy for 12 years, that's a long time.  He had a great life and was fun to have as a companion during my single days.  Thanks for your comments.

Debi-Thanks for your comments, we do tend to grow from events in our life that really challenge us emotionally.  Pookie's life and death have allowed me to grow.
