After we posted about our RV trip this past weekend, we had a couple of readers ask about our RV setup for maximum canine comfort and safety. Please join us for a little tour inside the S-RV (Siberian Recreational Vehicle).
The bunk bed crates are for sleeping only. We would need something more substantial for safe traveling. Besides, we like our travel set up better for more openness:

His books pay for our food!
this was a wonderful step back in time! thank you Hu Dad! xo
Way Back Wednesday is quickly becoming my favorite post because I love seeing the dogs who are no longer with us. This brought to mind another post. Wasn’t there a certain pup that was over the cab that learned how to open the door?
Very nice way to go camping. Not showing this to Ruby because she will object to the tent in the future!! Sure do enjoy seeing those that have passed on, especially the wooly girl.
I too love seeing the furangels again. This S-RV was awesome. It seems they had just about everything a Sibe could ever want-including a fireplace!!! LOVE this WAY BACK Wednesdays Hu-Dad! Also seeing the Little Prince so young is very sweet!
So good to see the missing pups. I do love these “reruns.”
What kind of RV do you have? How long is it? Looking at purchasing for full time travel with an Alaskan Malamute and a Lab.
We currently are in a 37 foot Thor Outlaw. However, we are in the process of trading it for a 35 foot Dynamax DX-3. We will have a new S-RV this fall!
So I have been looking into seat belts and I was wondering which brand you use? Love the layout of using the bunk house model for crates smart thinking. You have two that look very similar to my two. Thanks for allowing us in on your fun.
We use Champion Canine Designs from USA K9 Outfitters. Very sturdy and we have used them for years. http://usak9outfitters.com/CCSS.htm
Oh I would LOVE to have an RV like that!!!!

That is really cool! Furry impressive set-up! At first glance mom was like “where are the dog cages?” I think we should start demanding better travel arrangements for us, too.

Quite an ingenious arrangement. Just wondering how long it takes to place and belt the dogs in for travel and sleep.
It is just like the Jeep – we each have our own spot and want to go to them. Load up is really pretty quick.
Getting out of the RV on leashes for a walk – that is a wee bit more chaotic.
Fantastic setup and so well done. We need to see a video of the loading process. đ
Mom sez: Does each one of the Herd have their own “designated bunk”, and not just whoever comes first? That is such a wonderful use of space for them. Who gets the “top bunk”, and who sleeps on the bottom? Whoever, and wherever, it sure looks like they “know their place”, and are happy in it.
For Ice ‘n Ayla, Roy took the rear seat of our van out, built a “bunk bed” into the space, with storage underneath, and a blanket wrapped foamie in the bunk, with an 18″ high fence around the front and back — wooden frame, with “page wire” fence, and their leashes firmly attached to the railing of the fence. Now, Ice can sprawl out full length on the foamie, but still prefers to rest his chin on the fence railing and look out the window.
Oh, yes, spaces are all reserved. For sleeping, top bunk is for Kiska and Natasha, lower bunk is for Qannik and Typhoon, and cab over is for Frankie and Cheoah.
Wondering how they all get up into those upper bunks, since they look fairly high?
Also, could you please tell me what to do about the atrocious shedding, this time of year??? Help!!!!!
Thanks so much. Love your posts each morning.
Human lift to the upper bunks! And, believe it or not, we have not started shedding yet. Too many cold nights still at the house, but we are getting ready to blow coat. All you can do is brush a lot and vacuum a lot.
Thank you! We’ve been “blowing coat” for weeks, down here on the Gulf Coast. I’m about to wear out my heavy-duty vacuum cleaner— which happens to be called The Animal, by Dyson. I take dogs out to the end of the wharf and brush them in whatever direction the wind is blowing! Mobile Bay is awash with dog fur. LOL
