A quick update on our last few days! We have arrived safely in Austin Texas after overnighting in Fort Stockton. Our ancient pups are handling the trip well. Sleeping 18 hours a day, waking to eat and do their business.
We had a bit of a scare at the Rv park in Fort Stockton. Ruby, our very gentle deaf 18 year old Sharpei/beagle was the victim of an unprovoked attack by 2 other dogs. A young pit bull and a very aggressive chihuahua. The little one was off leash and charged across the parking lot and latched onto Ruby’s back leg, snarling. The pit bull was on leash but so strong that when he lunged at Ruby he dragged his owner across the gravel on her knees. He grabbed hold of Ruby at her rump and flipped her over. Luckily the owner’s partner came running and dragged the dog off our poor old Ruby. She suffered a few puncture wounds on her butt and legs but is ok. It happened fast and could have been much worse.
That aside, things are still great! Our little house on wheels is performing well, keeping us warm, as temperatures dip to record lows, as they are all across North America. The water pipes at the KOA froze last night but Serenity Bob braved the sub zero dip like the true Canadian he is.
