[@donboshoff2928]

Thank you to everyone for your kind words and wishes. Today’s episode was bitter sweet. It was such an epic adventure and so many good memories made. It was also the saddest day of my life, lil Spud ingested 1080 poison on the last day and sadly didn’t make it. For those of you who have dogs and take them camping, please be aware of this poison. Make sure your dog has a muzzle so he can’t eat it and keep him close. By the time Spud had got to it, it was too late. We called a vet on the satellite phone to seek emergency first aid advice who told us there was nothing we could do. The poison acts by blocking enzymes that send energy to the cells and slowly vital organs stop functioning and the animal starts fitting. He died in my arms not long after. I wouldn’t wish this on anybody, it was the worst thing I have ever been through seeing my best mate go out like that, so please take care with your dog out there. Below is his eulogy..: “It’s with a heavy heart and unbelievable sadness that I had to say goodbye to my best mate this week. Gone But Never Forgotten SPUD 01/09/2005 - 15/09/2018 You were my best mate and touched the hearts of everyone who knew you and you were so good with the kids. I’m going to miss having you by my side, but know you will always be with me in spirit. I know right now you’re running amok up there with the angels and chasing balls. Love you forever my lil Spud. Dad😢”

[@bernardnazgul5254]

Don Boshoff I feel for you mate. Take care

[@88gaz]

what a great little dog, heartbreaking mate.

[@kieron3676]

Sorry for your loss, Don. Very sad news.

[@tkreitler]

It was obvious in the videos that you two were close. You were a great owner in giving Spud a life full of adventures. There is another dog out there who needs a good friend like you.

[@winfeildblues]

Don Boshoff fuc$ man I never thought I'd be brought to tears watching a 4wd video ..!!! I wish you all the best bro ..!!!!RIP.... SPUD..!!!!

[@nbrettoner]

Don sorry to learn of your mate Spud's sad passing, my sincere condolences. Pets are often very much part of one's closest family members. To Amalia Ronny & Don, thankyou for the edits/clips on Spud, and this fitting tribute to a great member of the team on this series. I think I'm going to re-watch this one. Always appreciate the quality production from quality videography, and all the skill dedication and thought put into these adventures. Especially appreciate the "expose' " revealed via drone footage. Takes us on a higher level of understanding this Great South Land, this Continent of continual surprises wonderous beauty serious struggles-of-the-past (as well as present). Done well guys, thankyou. I was going to hold off watching this until later; but "couldn't wait" :)

[@makoman5447]

One of the best things in life is doing some overland trip with friends, that include your dog. Love that, RIP Spud.

[@emu4wd]

Mako Man yep. Travelled all over the place for over 15 years with our little mate till he passed away recently.

[@Ronny_Dahl]

The final chapter to this rollercoaster story (real story not a fake scripted one). So what happened to Spud? Well sadly he ate some 1080 bait and died within a few hours on the last day. A very sad and sobering end to the dangers of 1080 bait poisoning. For the record I did warn Don of the possibility but after taking him to plenty of places with it Don felt he'd be able to keep him away from it and we also thought the same. It's not until its too late you really understand the true dangers. The 4 of us buried Spud at Skull rocks and there is now a plaque in his name. We all went back to visit the week after. R.I.P. Spud He had a good time on this trip, Don says Spuds best trip but his last one... Sorry to end this on a sad note but thats how the story goes. not a fake scripted make it look

[@LargeGSX1400]

Thanks for the update, I was wondering how poor Spud passed when I saw the memorial at the end of the video. I hope it was painless for the poor pup. Sorry for your loss Don.

[@trentkrikken9873]

Sorry for ur loss Don. RIP Spud.

[@kieron3676]

Sad to hear that. Sweet little fella.

[@mickellis8747]

Have heard it's not a nice way to die. I know of 2 other foxies dying from 1080 in WA

[@noelwhittle7922]

Funny thing Ronny, was just thinking while watching the video that it would be good to educate the viewers from overseas ( and many Australians actually) about the aspects of things which are unique to Australia, like 1080 for instance. Not too late.

[@WizzardPrang]

Don, my condolences, Spud seemed a super little chap. I reckon Ronny did him proud this episode, you must have some great memories of your adventures together.

[@j.j.605]

Sorry for your loss Don. Seeing spud in this series made us smile. Dogs are family and should be treated as such. We will miss him.

[@powerswearingfluids]

What an epic trip and it was such a chill thing to watch all these 5 episodes. Thank you so much for sharing the pain and the gain. It was very skillful and good of you finding Don and i feel very sad and sorry for losing your best friend. Take care Don and be well, dont blame yourself too much. You offered the best company for SPUD

[@aussiefiery]

How sad, RIP Spud. Love the Skull Rocks camp, an awesome camp and the sunsets on those breakaways are epic. Have some great images from our trip out there with you.

[@willian.direction6740]

[@jcv551]

Thanks Ronny! The whole series I kept thinking wow spud has been lucky not have taken a bait,but I thought he must have been bait trained. He was a good dog. Condolences 😥

[@kellydrolet4740]

[@marksomerville1275]

What a great trip. What spectacular country. Your photography is close to studio tv standard, especially the star shots. Poor ol' Spud, rips your heart out. PS How many guys use paper plates ? Best thing Ive done was to get enamel plates, bowls, cups...dont break, put em on the fire if need be, hold the heat, dont spill the meal. Cant wait till your next trip. Envious of you guys & gals in WA.

[@trevorheath1865]

Well done Ronny. Yet again another great series. Keep up the fantastic work. Looking forward to watching your next trip.

[@WesternAustraliaNowAndThen]

Great series but a very sad ending with poor Spud falling victim to 1080 after the trip. A particularly cruel poison that has been banned in other countries due to the suffering it causes. The bush is no longer a safe place for your dog, everyone with dogs needs to be very aware that the baits can be just about anywhere as they are sometimes used illegally and can also be moved around by birds etc. Animals that die from eating baits are also a secondary source of poisoning.

[@ottoswinebar]

Geez mate, sorry to hear about Spud, I didn’t know about that when I wrote my comment on episode 4 warning of 1080. It’s bloody terrible stuff, and why I believe the government should allow permits for Recreational Shooters to control wild dogs, rather than dropping non-selective baits. Few uneducated, harsh comments, but it’s not the first, and not the last as baits taken by domestic dogs are mostly secondary. Just ask a few of the locals in Cue. Good show as always, looking forward to next year.

[@paulfityo1]

Rip spud. Im sure your mate appreciates those clips of him throughout the video

[@BadMonkey443]

Thanks guys.

[@Ronny_Dahl]

1080 bait got him after the trip

[@obxjeepguy]

Man, that sucks. For those of you not in Australia, just Google 1080 bait.

[@henrikm4657]

RIP Spud. You looked like a great little travel companion. Out of curiosity, is that knife that Ronny is carrying from Scandinavia? It looks very similar to the type of knives the Sami people of northern Scandinavia craft. They’re usually made of reindeer bone/antlers, birch wood, and have silver or pewter ornaments and sheaths made of reindeer skin.

[@slateslavens]

I have one of those Scandinavian knives and they do look very similar, right down to the thick blade. I was thinking the same thing.

G’day Ronny. I’d like to see you do a test on where best to place the winch dampener when winching. You say the middle third or near the shackle. My ARB instructions say in the middle. I know your theory and I understand it, but which is really correct? I think a practical test is the only way. I’ve learnt s lot from your channel. Cheers, Pat.

Hey Ronnie great vid as always ...!!! Just a quick question on poor little spud ..!!! Are the areas with 1080 marked or not ..!!! Cause me and a mate are traveling that way next year with two dogs or you reckon we should mussel them ...????anyway thanks again on a great job ....I really look forward to watching your footage and telling everyone I can about it ..!!!!

Found this on google DODGE (circa 1935) - Dodge started building trucks in 1914, and 20 years later the Dodge branch of Chrysler Motor Company was one of the nation's top truck builders. This mid-1930s Dodge truck was found displayed on old Route 66 in Paris Springs Junction, Mo.

[@bearwild8014]

First of all I would like to say RIP SPUD and my deepest and most sincere condolences to Don. As a dog owner and lover myself I travel with hesitation now days due to this horrid 1080 disgusting suffering inducing death poison. Unfortunately I also find it very sad that people take this opportunity to attack others and even Don for giving his beautiful SPUD a chance to live the real life outside of the suburban backyard. I personally think the negativity is directed in the wrong direction to the wrong people, dogs dying of poisoning is a very emotion filled situation and I think directing this energy to the powers to be to pressure them into eliminate poisoning totally and stop playing god with pain suffering. As previously mentioned professional hunters would be a much more humane way of control. For those of you that think 1080 is harmless to native wildlife I say I have seen real life evidence proving this theory to be totally incorrect. Again I say RIP SPUD and my deepest and most sincere condolences to Don. . . . When you help improve the lives of those around you, you improve your very own environment..... Peter Ruwette
