Hi Everyone,<br /><br />I am thinking about the future and how it will look being a vandweller. I am enjoying the lifestyle and if I could figure out the making money on the road I know this would be the best fit for me. I'm really living each day not just working for the weekend. <br /><br />I do wonder if when I do become a full time permanent vandweller if I should get a dog. I have been thinking about this question since I started my journey. I notice some beaches / parks or other public places have notices about no dogs allowed or certain areas are off limits. <br /><br />I also have read the posts on here and it seems that cooling or heating the van for the dog when the owner is not there is an issue. <br /><br />I would like the companionship but I've never owned a dog. My parent's did when I was growing up so I know what that attachment is like and how wonderful it can be. <br /><br />However, I don't want to be kept from going swimming at the lake or experiencing places where dogs aren't allowed. For instance, I go to the library to surf the net and chat with friends and family. <br /><br />I would love to hear from all pet owners who van dwell what benefits and hindrances they have experienced when bringing their pet along for the ride.
