- Trucking With My Dog! | A Day In The Life Of An OTR Trucker
Since I wasn't able to bring Dakota on my last adventure, and I know how many of you love my little truck dog, I thought I'd make this trucking vlog extra special. Trucking with my dog is always better, as traveling with a pet can help with the loneliness that being an OTR trucker often brings. I hope this video brings you all lots of happiness, and helps to showcase what it's like having a pet on your truck.

Hey everyone! Sorry my posting schedule isn't very consistent! The unpredictability of the trucking industry makes it almost impossible to get videos out at the same time and day every week. If you'd like to get instant notifications whenever I post a new video, be sure to subscribe and CLICK THE BELL ICON so you don't miss out :)
This is the channel I never knew I need until I find it it's dope 🔥😁
I think you asked most of us truck drivers we want to see your cameraman . He must be very blessed to hang out with you
Hi hello nais you
Keep up the good work! You are blowing up right now and I'm sure your inbox is full of sponsor request.
Do you drive a manual transmission?. If you do , can you explain how to shift thru the gears. Low range and high range. Floating the gears
I'm 66 now and more or less retired, not really, I can't ever stop driving and they will be hauling my bones out of a cab someday. But this video reminds me of my girl Bailey who trucked with me a few years back and looked much like Dakota. Those were good times and many good miles, and Bailey loved it, she wouldn't even let me open that truck to leave without her being in it. My wife used to say she wished I would treat her like that dog...lol...Bailey passed away at a ripe old age, a day after our last run together. But in all this I just got to say there is no life a dog appreciates more than what we give them as truckers, I know Bailey loved every second of it, and Dakota does too. Have fun and enjoy there should be more of this...
Omg the timelapses when Dakota is drinking! 🤣 I’m dead
I LMAO every time I watch that part lol.
Black Kodiak Media I’ve watched that part like 5 times myself and just as funny every time 🤣
That had me rollin' !! That was great. hahahaaa
I laughed so hard 😂😂 that was the best!!
🤣😱😂
Legend has it that she's still drinking that water to this very day.
"last one dare drives for Swift" that's hilarious! 😆👍
As a father, I was happy seeing solo ladies who had big dogs along for the ride.
As a father of a 21yr old daughter OTR driver, I wish she'd get a big dog!
I see you have the picture of Uncle Jesse, from The Dukes Of Hazzard. I love that character. Don't we all wish we had such a wise and loving uncle?
ummmm isnt someone with her filming ?? idk ?
Shes not solo, camera man.
She's not solo.
I once had 2 Australian german shepherds dropped off at my door back in 2008. We gave one to my sister and the other one we kept. Within 2 months she was up to my knees, and I'm 5'2'. We lost her due to cancer 2 months ago, 11 years old and she was still fetching sticks. Every time I go to my sister's house I always think of my girl.
I can somewhat relate, I owned a GSD/Australian shepherd mix puppy at one point in my life, but that was suddenly cut short due to escaping from my backyard and not coming back for unknown reasons. Oh well. :(
“Last one there drives for swift!” That one got me😂
Can you do a “what I eat in a day as a trucker”? Love your videos 💛

I’ve been driving 25 years and it’s refreshing to see someone like yourself with a professional attitude towards safety... this career is nothing to take lightly. Please stay safe in your travels and remember it’s better to arrive a half hour late than never at all. Happy travels my friend.
Agreed!
Dogs will dig out the prickers with their teeth themselves it's in their blood to do so and they do it
@@ShelbyHBTM love
@@ShelbyHBTM I love you girlfriend you get married
@@ShelbyHBTM I love you girlfriend I'm a single 46 and honking marry you country of a girl and I might live with you if I live with you I miss in the front seat with you you drive and we are going to a gas station show some food going to a dick Christmas present Santa Claus and we watch the the Grinch some cocoa
Dogs are a proven judge of character...when they growl around someone... pay attention
Yup.
dogs rule
My dog growls at EVERYTHING.
I couldn't agree more. I was the owner of a same apt complex years ago and found that the dog did a better job of picking tenants than the credit check company did. A Golden Retriever named Lucky. If she was ok with them, they turned out to be great tenants, if she backed away from them, and she did a few times, she was telling me, watch out, they are trouble. I was in a low income, high crime area, Lucky saved my life more than once. She is in dog heaven now. I miss her so.
I also have my dog on the truck. They make great companions!
Nothing wrong with getting your dog from a responsible, caring breeder! If we love our favorite breeds we have to keep them alive, right? She’s beautiful & seems so smart & such a great temperament. ❤️ Keep her shots up-to-date, including rabies/parvo & the shot that keeps her safe from smelling/consuming “shedding” from other animals (any time she goes outside she’s at risk). You may know all these things already, but just in case. 😊 Safe travels & thank you for driving courteously out there.
“Last one there drives for swift” funniest
thing I’ve read all week!
And we'd love a truck tour!
🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑SHELBY PLEASE READ!!!
I love watching all of ur footage w/ Dakota. I’m a female trucker & have a male GSD Charlie.
He made a great truck dog! I miss our adventures together. But I want to warn you that those HORRIBLE spurs are called goat’s head spurs and they are the reason he is no longer a truck dog.
He got into them several times over the years & I was always able 2 pull them out with no problems.
Then he got a nasty infection that required surgery on both paws.
It kept coming back & we had to treat him w/ both antibiotics & steroids. The vet told us that he now has a created allergy to them. All b/c a tiny tip of one broke off in his paw one time.
PLEASE get ur girl some of those booties that they sell in Petco. They will help save her from this. They’re a bit of an adjustment but Charlie adapted to them quickly. (Plus it was hilarious watching him learn to walk in them.)
They are also great for protecting her feet from hot pavement in the summer and the de-icer used all over in winter. That’s not good for their paws either.
Good luck with your travels! Keep the shiny side up!
Thank you 🙂 I will do that!
Dog Slurping & Scary Story is some top notch creativity. 😅😂🤣
“Last one dare drives for swift!” 😂
😅
That one killed me lol
I laughed so hard at this too!
Is Swift really THAT bad? Im getting my CDL and Im considering drive for them
@@danielavila9138
Just get your CDL. Do your year and move on from them. They're not the best for sure.
"Last one there drives for Swift". Hilarious. 😂 I suppose only fellow truckers get that one.
In my experience it was PAM Transport from Tontitown, AR.
Just remember, if you've got it a truck brought it. Shout out to all our boys and girls in the trucking industry!!!
Bomb editing 🥰
Yeah thanks to BKM

There is no better companion than a loyal dog, especially a shepherd. I had one for 11 years and she was extremely smart and protective.
Any dog is a good loyal companion. I bring my chihuahua with me on my truck hes my best friend on the road.
Honestly, the dog commentary has me laughing out loud!!!! So awesome!
Yay 😁
@@ShelbyHBTM Dakota wants a raise, vacation, 5 star medallion restaurant & hotel. She needs spoiled & she's won't take NO, JUST SAYING? 🐶 when she's done with her RR, WHEN' UR 💳💵 run out. Don't worry she'll leave u $1 for 🍦😉 luv ur hilights & length.
@@ShelbyHBTM your looking so beautiful 😍 ❤
@@ShelbyHBTM hi girlfriend I love you to get married live with you your apartment and we are taking you to work on truck drivers Groove With You
I love Dakota’s thought bubbles 🤣
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhyes Dakota best team driver in the fleet....
I truely miss having a dog on the road. My old boy passed away a year ago. After having Moe shy of 16 years. Its hard being on the road without him. Best dog a boy could ask for. Chocolate lab's definitely have a spot in my heart now.
ahh sorry for your lose, i lost my male rottie he was 7, 185 lbs a tic took him down was bite and went into comma
As long as you miss your old friend, you are not ready to commit. Give it time and you will be ready to pick a new Moe, trust me.
Sorry for your loss had a pit with me 10 years past away 2 years ago cancer now have a male boxer and a female rotty
Found your channel a few hours ago and I’m hooked! Just binge watched literally all your videos. They’re so good! I have no interest in ever being a truck driver but it’s so cool to learn about different jobs. You’re doing an amazing job! Keep it up!
whoaacandace totally agree! Nice to see different people with different lives!
That jab at Swift has me rolling! 😂😂
You and Dakota make an incredible team, and I love her funny "dialogs" with you Lol !! Such wonderful scenery as usual in this video. All of your content is so rich, and nothing beats your expertise in the attention to details you put into your career. It's so helpful and appreciated.
Props to your photographer/editor. There are some amazing shots, transitions, music and overall composition
If that was all you did all day you'd be awesome at it too.
@@thetexastrucker7934 when I used to beat my friends at video games thats what they would tell me too, if I played all day like you I'd be just as good...we were 12 years old. Grow up and give respect where its due. If you wanna be good at something, try. Thats all. You'll find something. She did. I haven't yet, except video games but shitty attitudes like that aren't helping anyone.
@@underwhere5407facts
The captions for Dakota are the absolute best!! I'm hooked on your channel! You're absolutely stunning and super badass as well!! 💗💗
Last one drives for Swift 😂 I love the captions for you dog
I get such a kick out of some of Dakota' dialogue! "Saw bad guy, was only tree", is my favorite in this video. Do you come up with her lines yourself, because they are heckin' funny😂
I agree!! Heckin' awesome!
I Have a feeling that the Dog would chew the Ass Off anybody That would have the Balls to even make a mistake of trying to make a Move on Her!
Dakota is so cute & well behaved, as most German Shepherds are. I miss mine lil girls Sheeba & Kayleigh. I miss all my "kids" Shepherds, my little princess pitbull Diamond, every furbaby I've had. Just everyone make sure you savor every moment with yours as well. Cherish every millisecond
I’m a trucker, actually I run as a team with Ami . We have 4 Australian Shepherd’s that come with us. Wouldn’t have it any other way. They’ve got all the lower 48 states with us. Good luck to you. Stay safe out there.
Ok but when Dakota was drinking and the time lapses started 😂😂 dead 💀
Autumn S She drank for a solid 60 seconds and I filmed the whole thing. We were dying laughing at the end, but I didn’t put that in the video lol.
Can you do a sit down video of the things you did step by step getting into the trucking industry?
I have a Blue Tick, Dottie, with me in the truck. She has probably half a million miles she has rode with me. She does the same thing with the stickers and will stop and look back at me and wait for me to get them out. It's become a part of life having her on the truck. If I leave her home everytime i hit the parking break I expect her to be jumping out of the sleeper. The drive up the Columbia River is amazing. One of my favorite places in the world in Multinoma Falls.
She’s gorgeous mate, you’re really lucky to have that hairy lil lady in your life
I was SHOCKED how bad of a puppy my German Shepherd was. It took us almost a year to potty train her. A YEAR. And trust me, we went to a trainer at 8 weeks and did all the research. She’s a stubborn lady. But she is now the BEST dog. Worth every night of 2 hours of sleep. ❤️
That is not the norm...I've several GSDs in my life....currently have three and the beauty of them is that they are super easy to train....glad it worked out.
Be careful when she puts her front paws on your step, reson I'm saying that is my husky did that and got one of his claws caught in the step and tore it out, so what I did is put a pcs or rug there and that worked
That’s a really good suggestion
I'm a huge dog person I love them that's great you have that security and your best friend on the road. 😊✌🏼
My fav dog saying: "They give more than they get."
That is a good idea, never give out your location or for that matter any other personal information. ALWAYS be safe out there Shelby.
BKM’s double take on the top bunk, had me rolling 😂. He’s like “wait, you’re making me sleep up there” 😂😂
And the dialog given to Dakota, priceless.. love the scenery, and the content. Keep’em coming!
Funny how she left the dog slurping water in the background. hehehe
Smartest, most human breed in the world! Most loyal.... and protective...
Beautiful dog. I lost my sweet girl in September 2019. She took a piece of my heart with her. 💔
I’m so sorry for your loss!
@@ShelbyHBTM thank you young lady.
Bill Peters I am so sorry,I lost my 7 years ago and I still miss Him a lot ,now I have a small one ☺️
@@gabrielaciocirlan250 it's tough. My wife and I don't have kids, so our fur babies are precious to us.
Bill Peters I lost my wiener dog to just wanna wish you and your loved ones a lifetime of health happiness and big bags of cash
Shelby and Dakota........dream team 😂😂. Travel safe guys and look forward to the next Vlog 👍
I love long drives and the wide open roads! Love that your videos have them. Makes me happy as I am sitting at my computer at work. Playing for background noise. Love the music too!
I’m just now learning to drive a school bus. You are amazing, and I totally respect and admire you.
I’m so torn the amazing music the sense of humor by the cameraman’s production style the great cinematography the superb video footage vs your witty humor insights care and concern for the job dog and more
So glad to see Dakota back on the truck!
Hello from Indiana! Great video, love to see you traveling with your German Shepherd, I can see how happy she is to be traveling with you, and the exercise she gets on your breaks is awesome. Stay safe out on the roads, keep the videos coming! 😀👍
LOL 18:40 -- 😂 Sunset, hour glass and all! Hahahaha... Oh man, you guys honestly make the best content. Can't get over it. :) Safe travels!
The drinking montage of Dakota was hilarious! All I could think of was "3 weeks later!" Lol. Great content as always! Keep it up!!
You need a playlist for all the songs on your videos.
They are listed in the description 😁
Love the adlibs with the dog! Very entertaining mix of your job and your surroundings!
I must say that your videos are truly amazing. Looking forward to seeing many more. Be safe out there.
She is so cute, i would love hugging her😍😍😍🤗🤗🤗
Rafael Pavan I can't tell if you mean Dakota or Shelby ?

Loved this video😊 Dakota is beautiful and it’s awesome to hear her story and the bond you two share! Thank you for sharing!!
The editing on these videos are amazing. Keep them going.
Shelby you are a true bad-ass. Love watching your videos. Be safe!!
Where the hell were people like you when I did my over the road stint, everyone I ran into looked like they drank heavily and hadn't seen another person in 3 years
🤣🤣

😂😁😆haha
Your describing me.
LOL!!!!!! Don't worry it's only got worse since then - this young woman is definitely the exception to the rule.
Omg I love Dakota what a doll face!
I love your videos! The editing is absolutely amazing and it's so interesting to see your daily life as a truck driver. It's really badass to see a girl doing a stereotypical male job. Girl power!
I absolutley love watching you and Dakota. Thank you for all the help for us who want to break into this industry. I'm now studying for what seems like way too many endoresments!! I hope i can have half as much fun as you both!

BKM is really creative
I was driving with my friend in the middle of the night one time and a little girl in a white dress suddenly appeared on the side of the road. My friend said to me "did you see that?" I said nope and drove a little faster.
Oh 😱 Lol that’s not creepy at all... 😬
Me and this other lady saw the same person frozen with long hair facing the orchards at midnight.
