This is a blog about the traveling adventures of Linda and Regis Burek and their dog Dart (7 1/2 year old sheltie). In 2015, they traveled across the country in their 5th wheel Heartland Elkridge and towed it with a Ford F350. In 2016, they traded that setup in for a Jayco Seneca motor home and Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk as the dinghy.
Their 11 1/2 year old collie, Tekoe, began the first trip with them. She suffered from severe arthritis and hip dysplasia, so she had to be lifted into and out of the truck and RV. She couldn’t walk very far and slept a lot. She had a gentle soul and got along with everyone. Sadly, Tekoe died 2 weeks into the trip. Her stomach bloated and twisted and she had to be euthanized.
Dart is an active dog. In his younger days, he competed in NADAC agility trials and earned his Novice Versatility title. He lives to play with his flying disc outside or his ball inside, although he is beginning to slow down. His high energy level and intelligence make him a high maintenance but delightful companion.
