LOVE that you got your pup on anxiety meds. It is an amazing thing we can use to help them, it’s unfair to force them to live with that level of discomfort when we have solutions.

[@edyost6433]

I wonder if CBD Oil would be a good approach. Less pharmaceuticals is always better.

[@kaitlyng.473]

@@edyost6433 I don’t personally agree with that, CBD oil can be hard to determine quality on and prescription anxiety meds for pets have testing and trials done to ensure efficacy.

[@kaitlyng.473]

@@mr.stickyfingers3189 Your comment regarding the effect anxiety meds have on dogs show you don’t really understand how they work. They are not sedatives,

Animal Reiki and Animal Communication for Rue and you....miraculous ❤

[@thomasnie8151]

Dear Sarah, I am so happy to see you and Rue again. So glad that everything is working fine now. You are such a kind and lovely person. Please give Rue a big hug from me ❤❤❤

[@karlyd7274]

Love hearing all the updates and so happy that Rue is doing better. I hope these 3 months go well for you Sarah, thanks for taking us along on the journey. ❤

[@jessiegirl4ever]

I am delighted Rue is doing better. I know it was stressing you both out. DrifterVans are great for helping out. ❤ Wishing you two the best always!

[@207LW]

Awww Your baby girl is so lucky to have you. So many people would just take her to the shelter. I hope your girl is doing better and only gets more calm and happy ❤

[@TheHighwayHare]

Sarah I am so glad that you and Roo are doing better. I work in the veterinary field, so I know how much the meds help! Glad she will not be alone during the day, that will also help her socialize. 👍

[@essentialsimplicity]

So happy you’re enjoying the Adirondacks! That’s my area. I love the Fall and the Autumn colors. Enjoy!

[@coffeecakerenee6187]

Sarah, happy for you and Rue! Sounds like your followers are filled with kindness!

[@bobgutgsell1009]

Very cool happy the corner was turned and you are getting comfortable . Yeah on the show stuff. maybe have the outside doors open for a look in only? but NO people are not coming in. LOL Upstate New York is beautiful. As I said in the last video Dogs talk and know what we are felling, WE (humans) just have to stop and let them tell us. It sound like you did that, Hugs and support!

[@davidfromtexas9681]

Sarah, you live a very charmed life. You get to work and still have time to travel. I too am lucky like that although I work remote but we live in a sticks and bricks. My wife is a teacher and we get to take epic roadtrips in the summer in our campervan. Safe travels!

[@jackrolfson312]

Thank you for your content, I hope things are going well for you. It's good to have nice people helping you along the way. I hope you have success in Your new contract. I'm glad you took time For yourself, To reconnect with Is life. Sometimes we just have to step away for a little while, And reconnect. From your last video to this one. It's nice to see a smile back on your face. Please stay safe and give rue hug!

[@cindytalley3148]

We are in Upstate NY as well in and out of the area I believe your going to be in. It’s my husband and myself and we travel the country putting on concerts and ministering in churches from MA to AZ each year. September starts our 17th year full-time. We live in an Airstream which has close to 500k miles on it. Have fun and be safe!!

[@kimkeever3692]

I literally gasped out loud when you mentioned someone broke your door! Glad it all worked out ok, and that Rue is doing better on the medication! Just like humans, some animals are more sensitive than others! I'll be on the lookout for your next video, and wishing you well on your new job assignment!

[@grayfox9911]

Rue is such a beautiful girl!! It sounds like things are going better for you. That's good! I fully understand about the strangers. I don't like even being touched by someone I don't, know.

[@lynneperkins7175]

So happy everything is coming together for you and Rue. 😊

[@StephsHealthMatters]

Will you still be working with Drifter Vans? You'll love Maine and NH, too. The Adirondack mountains were amazing! I miss the New East at times, but it is nice to visit so many places. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@user-zd2im8xu2z]

Great job Sarah! You’re making right decisions for Rue and yourself. Proud of you love 👍👍 The person who broke your sliding door is a dingleberry. Sorry you had to deal with. The amount of disrespectful people is nearly unbelievable. Glad you’re done with the van making company. You moved along for the better!! Keep smiling 👍🙏❤️

[@grayeagleswolves]

Hi Sarah Way to go getting the job you want in the area seeing your friends on the road and getting to hang out too I'm so happy for you also way to go with Rue getting her situated

[@donnapryor2017]

You are my inspiration. Wishing you and Rue an equal return of all the happiness and inspiration you give to others.

[@Juju-wk7yv]

Sounds you you have a plan. Enjoy the Northeast. Travel while you are young. Traditional life will be there when you are ready.

[@leslovesliberty1776]

Sarah, I'm so excited for this next chapter for you & Rue! You are such a good dog mama exploring every combination of options to keep her as healthy & happy as possible. 🙏❤🐾

[@stargirlofantares9053]

I’m so happy everything worked out and that the anxiety meds helped Rue. Super excited for your new contract & can’t wait to see where you settle! So awesome that you currently have sort of a vacay, without having to move every day, on 25 pristine acres til you have to leave for your job! Can’t wait to see ME & VT also through your eyes, or lens! Lol 😂 Btw… great job on all your videos & editing. You do a wonderful job. Take care! Love from Oregon ♥️ Jessica

[@trburgoz]

Rue looks happier! After hearing your story of showing your van home, I realized how our world has changed and not all people are cool. Personal safety is very important while traveling and I support your decision to not open your home again. I enjoy your videos and travels, thanks for sharing!

[@be.kind.to.animals]

You do such great videos. Rou and uou are a great team. ❤🐾

[@bevn362]

Maybe it wasn’t just one person that broke the door. Could it have happened as people kept forcing to open & close it and then not realize each time it was not aligning correctly until finally the last forceful broke it completely? Whatever, it was so unfortunate it happened. Relieved to hear it could be fixed. For many reasons and especially the cost of a Class B it’s not worth the hassle to have an Open House-people won’t respect it like if it was their own. Your plans to move on sounds like a good move for both you & Rue. 👏🏼👏🏼

[@AustinsADV]

Hey Sarah, congrats on the new contract, sounds like a nice area to work especially in the fall, and the extra stability will be good. Great to hear Rue is doing better!

[@GK49245]

Glad you are finding your new niche. Our 10 year old beagle has significant separation anxiety. 🐶 Thanks for sharing your continuing adventures.

[@brutah_venice]

Great news on all fronts! We too put our dog on meds to help his anxiety and he’s doing much better! Looks like you created a perfect environment for Roo!

[@lindasteinbrenner8065]

So happy Rue is feeling better whatever method he needed! Glad you got a contract. I think this will be a good thing for you both. I was cringing when you talked about having a van at the show! People can be so rude! Have a good contract! ❤

[@roserocker62]

Congratulations on your job & to Roo for feeling better . That Adirondacks is just absolutely beautiful in the fall . Enjoy , be safe & stay happy 😉

@@NomadicSarah we are! Got a new puppy a vizsla. What a challenge he is. We watch your videos and are so happy you are doing great!! Rue looks great too!! Sorry to hear about her medication but sounds like it helps!! That’s good!! Keep in touch!

[@loriritzenthaler9211]

So excited for you and Roo in this new adventure. So happy Roo is doing better. Can't wait to see how the new job works out while in your van. You definitely need to make it to Maine. It's our favorite place to go in the summer. Mount Desert Campground (on Mount Desert Island with Acadia National Park) is the most beautiful place to camp and worth the price. When I retire from teaching, I will be spending time there in our van in the fall.

[@jeannepalumbo6514]

I grew up and spent most of my adult life in the northeast. I have lived in the southeast the last 15 years. I also spent a bit of time visiting the southwest and northwest. Without a doubt, the fall colors in the northeast are spectacular and cannot be topped.

[@colleenanderson223]

If you find yourself in the McCall/Donnelly/Cascade Idaho, I have a spot you can park. Rue will fit in nicely with the neighborhood. So dog friendly.

[@kerryobrien8940]

Love hearing that Rue is doing better. Good luck on your new contract. I met you at the Topsfield show - it was great. I can understand not wanting people to touch your home. I walked through some of the vans, but didn't touch anything. Sorry to hear about someone breaking your door. I think some people are barbarians. I treated everything like a museum (look but no touch).

[@sandrahand5338]

You seems so happy! I’m glad that you got meds for Roo, he must feel better. Enjoy your new contract.

[@karenaureli9361]

I’m so happy you enjoyed your time in Vermont. It is a beautiful place. Lived here all my life but now I want to travel. 😊

[@watcher9997]

The van is a big change for both you and Roo. On top of that, you had a new career and I think Roo may have been picking up on your stressed emotions as well. Roo may calm down once you settle in. Best of luck!

[@bekimoore8761]

You life sounds so blessed. I am very excited for you and this next adventure. :)

[@AdirondackNative51]

Glad to hear Rue is doing better. It’s hard when our fur babies aren’t feeling their best self. Loved hearing you are working in the ADK. Grew up in the Lake Placid area and we spend a week there every September. It was a treat to see some of the shops on Main St. in LP at the beginning of the vlog but really got a flashback with the ferry across Lake Champlain! Crossed those waters many times! If you are into dining out, check out Lisa G’s or Smoke Signals in LP. Just a couple of suggestions for a meal out. Thanks for taking us along on your journey.

[@BrittMFH]

Glad things are working out for Rue. Enjoy your next adventure!

[@afoster3392]

I am so happy for you! Glad Rue is doing better! Take care ☀️

[@hctim96]

Glad to see you are back in your happy place... I really envy you. I was a CT/MRI tech and always wanted be a contract/mobile tech. Life did not work out that way..Oh well I'm retired and loving it.. It's neat you can also be a snow bird!!!

[@marysavage5985]

Love love love the Adirondacks. Hope you will be in the high peaks area. Good luck there and enjoy the beautiful Autumn.

[@douglashoward5738]

Wishing you and Rue the best on your new temporary assignment 😊

[@chad2886]

I live in the northern adk park and love it up. The high peaks has some great hiking if you don't mind the crowds, three months is enough time to become a 46er if you're dedicated.

[@MrRamlianthang]

Amazing beautiful county 🏞️🏞️🏞️

[@grajprogramming694]

If you can get up to Acadia, you'll get mountains (sort of) and coastal all in one! Busy during the summer, though, and you'll need a National Park pass - but it's beautiful!

[@juniper617]

It’s nice to see someone doing van life in the northeast. Seems like hardly anyone does that.

[@rebeccafaussett4673]

I have always got my dog a dog sitter, she has separation anxiety real bad. Her dog sitter is the best I don't have to worry about her.

[@judya8044]

Maine is beautiful. Go in late July for the lobster fest! I go every year

[@robertdaymouse3784]

My dog experiences separation anxiety also. I will get some of that anti anxiety medication, not for my dog, for myself.

You got embarrassed to be angry. You're a rare person. I would love to be a fly on the wall & see your empathy towards patients. Probably amazing. I wonder if you're a Christian. Or just gifted happy?

[@Richardclarkson7819]

I've been watching your videos about van life. I'm curious what your van cost after all the things were added to it. you look like you enjoy it alot which is nice.

[@kasisatya5448]

Exactly medication is and can be a necessary asset. Boogles my mind that people who are simply observing a 20 min window of your life can sit in judgement. You do what is necessary for you and your dog, not for some mouth behind a computer screen.

[@lissalack1490]

Hi, Sarah. I am curious. Do you need to be licensed in each individual state for you to accept a contract? Or are you covered by a national license?

[@NomadicSarah]

Hey there! I have a national license but unfortunately I also have to get an additional state license almost everywhere I go. It’s a pain and some are a lot harder/take longer than others. That’s another reason I chose not to work in Connecticut.

[@flanmoran]

SO incredibly thrilled you’ve found ways to help Rue feel more cozy and calm, and that you’ve hopefully found great sitters in your new spot! I’m considering going back into traveling as a HCP, and very strongly considering Vanlife-but have been hesitant due to considerations for my own 85lb fuzzy buddy’s comfort, and worries over finding longer-term parking/camping options. Not sure how to email you, but very, VERY excited to hear about your “hack” for traveling HCPs! 🫶🏻🩺🚐
