What’s in my bag? Have you ever wondered? I posted this photo of me with my luggage before I left on my road trip last weekend on my Facebook page. I almost always bring the same stuff, and packing is a breeze that way.
Whether my sisters or I am traveling, the same stuff gets packed. If we are traveling for nose work, then we always grab our nose work backpack and put it in the car. It contains our nose work harnesses, leashes, treat bag and treats.
Once I’m in my hotel room, it’s time to open up my luggage and unpack.
I always include a fresh, clean food bowl. Mom pre-packages our food and puts our initial on the bag so we know whose food it is. Just in case something changes, we always pack an extra portion of food. An evening chew is packed for each night we are away. Grooming tools are important. We pack a comb, stripping brush, thinning shears, regular scissors, and clipper for nails. Treats are the most important cargo! Mom makes sure to pack a variety, and much more than we need.
Sometimes we plan ahead, like last weekend when I knew I was going to visit Iowa’s largest frying pan. Of course, I needed to pack the proper attire for a photo with the pan.
My mom packs totally different stuff in her luggage, but I thought you all might be curious about what’s in my bag. We also have a bag that stays in the car with bowls, water, fans, batteries, all that kind of stuff. Happy travels!
You sure know how to plan for a trip and I’m glad to see that the treats get to go along!
Can’t forget the treats!
oh we would like to visit that pan too… when it is filled with steaks LOL. we always have eggs-tra food on board too… you never know what adventures are waiting for you, right?
I think that pan holds 88 pounds of bacon…just in case you might like bacon.
Great organization would also be handy in an emergency.
Mom is a packing pro. She can even pack up a house pretty fast because she has moved so much.
Emma, mom is always so impressed with how organized you are! We have a green bag that takes all of our stuff. When mom pulls it out of the closet I do a little dance! Truly. We love when we get to go on trips with her. We like your worldly bag though! So cool! Awesome post. Love the photo with the frying pan!! Have a great day, your doodle friend Dash
Such a bummer that pan didn’t fit into our car! Every dog should have their own travel bag. I guess some dogs don’t travel, which is a bummer. Maybe you guys will get to take a summer adventure in August?
We love that frypan!!
It is very cool!
I wish it was that easy. Katie is going to the beach for August. She has three suitcases and two beds.
For a longer trip, there is more food and treats, but as we eat, the luggage lightens up. I’m the only one who brings a bed, but we all travel pretty light. No toys or anything. I wish I was going to the beach. How fun.
you sure pack light!
We don’t need much stuff, so no need to pack things we don’t need.
Mom LOVES your fancy suitcase! She always packs like we are going to be gone for a month even if it is just overnight. I mean how many collars and leashes does a guy need on a trip? BOL! Thanks for showing us what you pack…do you need a photo of me for your nightstand? XXOO Bentley
I would keep it in my suitcase all the time so I would never lose it. My mom used to be a heavy packer, but being a flight attendant for many years, she got sick of carrying stuff and figured out how to pack light.
Your suitcase is fabulous! We pack similarly… but we pack a lot more than one day’s extra. We’ve had some crazy things happen to us while traveling so we’re ready to be away at least a whole extra week. Of course, part of that is paranoia about Shyla’s epilepsy meds. She absolutely cannot live without those.
Your photos are SO cute! You and your mom must have lots of fun making those photos!
Mom loves taking photos. It is a relaxing hobby for her. We don’t have any meds to worry about, and if we forget something, there is always a pet store of some sort we could drive to if necessary. Being out in nature like you, would mean packing lots of extra stuff.
You and your Mom are so organized, Emma, plus your suitcase is so stylish. We love it!
Mom says she is overly organized, but it is what it is.
Wagnificent Emma!
You are both practical & organized.

Mom and I are a lot a like, my sisters kind of do their own thing.
A lot of goodness in your luggage.
Food and treats are always so important.
