Jaxx, the Siberian Husky, has ended his #Ride4Huskies travelogue after riding 1,722 km over six days in the rear passenger seat doggy hammock installed in a Jaguar iPace all-electric SUV vehicle. I purchased the Pet Car Seat Cover for Dogs on Takealot for R299 (on special – usually R399). The car seat cover worked well […]
After leaving The Waffle House yesterday, The Fossil (aka Desmond) drove the Jaguar iPace (with me in it, of course) to meet up with family in Umkomaas. I’d never met this side of The Fossil’s family before ’cause when he visited them last in November 2019 he flew in from Cape Town and I was […]
As mentioned in yesterday’s post, we had to cancel last night’s stay at the pet-friendly Gracelands Beach Lodge in Ramsgate. Thankfully, The Fossil’s friend, Françoise Malby-Anthony, extended our stay at Garden On The Beach (aka Sorgente 101), so I got to walk along uMdloti beach again this morning! Yesterday afternoon, The Fossil and I drove the Toyota Corolla […]
We arrived in uMdloti at around 21h30 last night. “The traffic congestion along the N3 section from Pietermaritzburg to Durban was bumper-to-bumper because of a truck that overturned near Cato Ridge,” says The Fossil. “That’s why we arrived here so late!’. Personally, I think he just got lost (we weren’t driving the all-electric Jaguar iPace, so […]
This morning I woke up at Nyati Valley Berg House (Nyati means Buffalo in Zulu. So, along with the Jaguar iPace, which should been called the Panther ’cause it’s black, we’re really getting into the animal theme of our road trip!). Today has been a long, long day. But I’ll tell you about that at […]
The Siberian Husky is riding the all-electric Jaguar iPace on an all-new seat cover with side panels to protect the rear door upholstery. The Husky, of course, is me, Jaxx. Looking over the front seats, I see The Fossil (aka Desmond) push a button to raise the car’s air-suspension for dirt road driving as we […]
The Fossil arrived home with a Jaguar today. No, not the big cat – the car. The all-electric Jaguar iPace EV400. And it’s black. Santorini black, with a shiny metallic finish. Just like a Panther. And as quiet as one too. This car even looks like a cat. As if it’s about to sneak up […]
Today is a special day. Special because I’ve been spoilt by the super pet-friendly, pet loving, and pet grooming people at Mystical Pawprints. I’ve been groomed here before but this time the owner, Sharlene Thoma, insisted on sponsoring my grooming session in support of my #Ride4Huskies travelogue (that’s the hashtag to use if you’re sharing […]
Welcome to my very first blog post ahead of the #Ride4Huskies travelogue! If you’re new to my blog, I’m JAXX – a Red Siberian Husky – and I love travelling. Obviously, I’m not actually writing this (my paws are too big for the keyboard). The Fossil is (that’s Desmond Langkilde, my adopted human). He is […]
The Fossil (aka Des) says that I can wrap up this edition of my Walk 4 SOS Huskies journey from Plettenberg Bay to Cape Town. There are so many people (and Huskies) to thank, so if I’ve not mentioned you (or your Husky), leave a comment and I’ll update this post. First off, I’ve gotta […]
