Who’s that cute dog in the sailboat?

 

 

 

A bichon frise catches the breeze…

That’s right folks. This just might be the cheapest way you can have a private little adventure with your pooch.  Wolfie the bichon frise and his loving owner are featured in a wonderful video (see link below) aboard a mirror dinghy.

Although it’s not 5 star luxury, Kevin and Wolfie don’t mind at all because they know this is the stuff true owner/dog love is made of. Spending time together doing the things that make them happy.  The little Mirror Dinghy carries them to a secluded spot near Sydney to camp the night and the duo is almost glamping with the luxury of a rather comfy looking sleeping bag. They dine right on the beach!  It just warmed our hearts to see these two getting about and right back to nature.

Nope, you just can’t beat a sunset with your dog by your side. Anyway, a clear night sky can give you 100+ star luxury.  A for this pair’s mode of travel, ‘Mirrors’ were designed over 50 years ago and were sold as a kit for folks to assemble so that sailing could be made affordable to the common man.  No longer did a person need to sell a sheep (dog) station to own a sailing craft.

We recommend floatation vests for dogs on watercraft.
