    I started driving 22 years ago and took my Doberman Pinscher everywhere with me. I ran a flatbed from the Southeast (Alabama) to the Midwest. Two runs to mostly Ohio every week. I took lumber up north and brought steel back down south. Keep on trucking! You rock🙂

    Running into her at a truck stop is probably the same experience someone has as seeing a double rainbow for the first time

      As a person who drove trucks for five years, I’ll be honest, if I saw her pulling up at a truck stop and seeing her getting out of the truck, I’d be like “Oh shit, wow!”

    What is great is fur buddy gets to travel and be with you and your driving across the usa. So cool. You should get like one of those "skateboard handle scooter thingy's" when you must walk the whole building trying to find different locations but hey, its a good workout since you're sitting so much.
