Fairchild AFB, Here We Come!

Posted at June 5, 2023 at 03:59 PM

Hi, Bon Jovi here, the rescue Schnauzer pup! I am on a grand adventure from Pope AFB to Fairchild AFB in t-minus 16 days! What a grand drive we have ahead of us! We have been planning all our pet friendly food stops via this app: BringFido. But could use your help too! We are driving from NC to WA state will follow Interstate-90 (Toledo, Chicago, Sioux Falls, Bozeman, Billings) does anyone have any fun spots, doggie parks, or food stops you can recommend for me?

We drove 2,500 miles, spent over 40 hours on the road, and it took us 8 days with Bon Jovi and our 10-month-old baby.

Bon Jovi loved his long walks along the Chicago riverfront. Who knew he also loved chasing pigeons! We were able to take him on a 2-hour boat ride through the Wisconsin Dells. He was such a good boy! Our last stop was the Badlands in South Dakota - it was truly out of this world.

A key tip: Doggie bags were a lifesaver, not just for Bon Jovi's needs, but also for trash and baby diapers.
