Buying the right used trailer can be a good deal, but there are certain things you should do to make sure it’s ready for the road. Jeff Johnston shows us various items you should check and repair, if needed, so you know that your RV is safe and ready for some fun adventures. It’s not unusual for your dog or cat to break a nail, and in most cases, it’s not a big problem, but then, again, it could be. This week on “Paws on Board,” Dr. Fitz shows us how to take care of a serious broken nail correctly so your pet stays comfortable and safe until you can get to a local veterinarian. Planning on buying a travel trailer or a fifth wheel? Mark Polk from RV Education 101, explains the basics about tow vehicle powertrains so you understand if your tow vehicle has the right powertrain for your towing needs.

A while back, we paid a visit to the Spyglass Ridge Winery and concert facility in Sunbury, Pennsylvania. During that visit, they were just adding a brewery and restaurant. Well, everything is finished, and a concert season is in full swing, so let’s revisit this great Harvest Hosts destination
so you can add it to your must-visit list.

This week on “Paws on Board,” we have a doubleheader for you. First, Dr. Fitz explains about dehydration and how this could lead to serious problems if not monitored. Then, Dr. Fitz is joined by Britney McKay from Jones Natural Chews and learns all about this family-owned company and its made-in-America line of natural dog chews and treats.

Clean, fresh water is on everyone’s mind, especially when you’re RVing and camping. This week, Mark Polk from “RV Education 101,” shows us a line of water filtration products that you should consider having on your RV.

You see their towing and suspension products everywhere, and this week we bring back the story inside Roadmaster, Inc. David Robinson, Vice President of the company, gives us a behind-the-scenes tour of Roadmaster and shows us what’s involved in making their highly-respected line of products that proudly carry that made-in-America sticker. Then on “Paws On Board,” Dr. Fitz explains to us why it’s so important to have your pet properly ID’d and the various types of IDs that are available. This is especially important if your pet travels with you around the country. Later, Kate Dunbar, our Campground Gourmet, shows us how relatively easy it is to prepare a delicious cedar plank salmon dish. Once you see how easy this meal is to cook up, I’m sure you’ll be adding this to your regular campground menu.

Most folks identify Vail, Colorado with skiing and lots of winter activities, but this week Jeff Johnston shows us what a great RV destination Vail is during the spring and summer months with plenty to see and do. Then on “Paws on Board,” Dr. Fitz joins Joe Mehl from Alliance RV and checks out the all-new 2024 valor toy hauler. You see as why you don’t need toys like quads or bikes to appreciate a toy hauler. Joe also points out what makes a toy hauler such a great option for RVers with pets. Later, it’s only been in the past few years that RV manufacturers have been installing multiple USB ports throughout their units. If you have an RV that could use one, two, or a few more USB ports, Jeff Johnston shows us how relatively simple it is to add those extra ports in your RV.

With toy haulers continually growing in popularity, we check back with Jeff Johnston in a review he did on the Coachmen Freedom Express. Then if you find yourself on Route 80 in Nebraska and looking for a place to stop for a while, Michelle Fontaine recommends the perfect place the whole family will enjoy: the Great Platte River Road Archway. It’s so easy to find and access as it actually spans over Route 80, and it’s definitely well worth a visit. This year looks like another record year for RVers traveling the country with their pets. On this week’s “Paws On Board,” Dr. Fitz explains to us the regional dangers your pet could face in various parts of the country and how you should be prepared. RVing and picnic lunches go hand in hand, and this week Britta Nelson shows us a few slightly different and delicious picnic ideas you may want to prepare for your friends and family on your next outing.
