Living in a 4x4 Van in the Remote Wilderness | Adjusting to a Growing Family

[@Kelly19217]

Rodney is such a gentle soul it breaks my heart to think of him begging for food and all alone, love you for taking him into your lovely little family ❤

[@kdbanister8978]

Agree and it makes me happy and sad at the same time seeing how he became so attached so quickly. Thinking of his past life breaks my heart. Happy he has a loving home now.

[@SRtruth]

Rodney sleeping on you belly up is the funniest & best ❤ Also good thing you carried him across the bridge his little leg could go right through one of those cracks!

[@alexamerling79]

So glad Camper has a brother now :)

[@karadizon4299]

Rodney and camper are so cute. He’s so lucky to have a mama who loves him. Many dogs are abandoned by their owners but it’s devastating to hear what happens to them. I have two dogs and can’t imagine my life without them. Life is so much better with companion like dogs. Rodney is such a gentleman to let his mama go first. You can see how much he loves his mama. My husband and I dreamt of taking our girls in cross country via RV one of these days. They are our family. We are lucky to have two dogs to keep each other company.

[@terenzo50]

Rodney is about 12 kinds of adorable and a perfect compadre for Camper who's no slouch in the adorable department himself. Good health to all three of you. Please stay safe. You're all so important to us out here in the vast uncharted wilds of the Internet.

[@NikkiDelventhal]

Thank you!!!!!

[@terenzo50]

You're more than welcome. I don't know if you've noticed, but certain things in our country are worrisome and you and your four-legged family take all that away.@@NikkiDelventhal

[@pomskylifenova7344]

For sure 👍🍀

[@MalissaThomas]

When you first showed Rodney and took him for a while and them took him back, I cried. Now I'm so happy he's with you and having the time of his life! Love watching you guys!!

[@happydays241]

I love the matching PJ’s. Don’t worry about what people think about feeding them from your mouth they are your babies and you have thought them a lot of great things. You have got two beautiful dogs there and Rodney’s a quick learner. I just love them both.

[@eleanormassaro5195]

Rodney is adorable, such a character!

[@alanalan-uc4zb]

i am a 69 year old guy. i had a stroke on 3/6/24. i am okay now, i am home taking care of my 2 adopted daughters karma and karli, thanks for taking care of camper and rodney. they have the best mom in the world.

[@WildDoveTrail]

Rodney looks so much better and happy. He's really improving with his stamina. Thank you for your love and patience with him.❤

[@NikkiDelventhal]

He’s doing so well! Love watching him grow and come into his personality!

[@WildDoveTrail]

@@NikkiDelventhal I hope you're feeling better! 😀

[@Deborah1056]

I am enjoying your channel so much! Camper and Rodney are adorable and you're such a good trainer! Love all of the content.

[@wstafco]

Nikki, I have alot of admiration and respect for you because of your commitment to rescue and rehabilitate these dogs. You are an inspiration.

[@mikebolton3816]

Your not alone. And frankly, dogs are generally better company than humans.

[@BigV96220]

Here here Amen to that 🙏 ❤

[@colleencolleen44]

aww Rodney looks so much more relaxed!! He looked so stiff and reserved the first few videos. It just shows how important it is to give rescued dogs time to decompress❤❤

[@NikkiDelventhal]

Yes! I believe it takes months before we really get to know them!

[@jtaylorb88]

Ive really enjoyed Rodney being added to the clan. Besides when he's sleeping its just too darn cute too.

[@Simone_Samadhi]

I love your videos. It makes me happy to see you and your four-legged friends so happy together. Thank you so much for your positive influence in this world. I wish more people were like you. ❤️ Please keep it up! 👍🏻😉

[@jenniferparrott8260]

I love watching your two pups! Life always gets better when you add a 2nd dog. Rescues are the way to go! They know you saved them and they never forget.

[@susanstebila8707]

U crack me up😂😂😂😅

[@petepotaczek5844]

Thank you for enriching your life with your two boys. I almost cried seeing Rodney take that food outta your mouth!

[@pienpakvis6118]

I love nothing better than seeing a pup-Mom and her 2 boys exploring nature. Travelling in the great outdoors is such a perfect life for 2 dogs. It is heartwarming to see what a bonded family you have become. Also a very creative way to include them in your exercise routine , lol

[@amandamccoy1165]

Beautiful area. Your pups make me smile. I love how Camper's stare. And Rodney is learning so much. And you are right. Nothing like seeing your dogs happy. I have 2 dogs and I love the company they give each other. Thanks for your video.

[@loriperkins8805]

Love it! Everyone brushing their teeth and matching jammies, you're the best dog mom!! On another note. I still tell our 2 yr old lab/golden to "go potty" when we got out before bedtime 😂

[@therealsugarking]

I love Rodney. Thank you for taking him in 😊

[@ToeKneeMarlow]

I'm so incredibly in love with your life with these boys, your videos. and of course, you! Pat on the back, Nikki! Looking forward to seeing more to come!!!!

[@tehutiboi]

So glad you are feeling better! Beautiful spot! All the best to you and your tribe. Safe and Happy travels!

[@RottenlyMoodyChild]

Camper is the goodest boy now. I hope he's being the best big brother to Rodney ❤ nothing better than happy pet freinds. Thanks again for being so wonderful for them. You are right that they are good for each other. Thanks for always putting so much amazing work into filming. The drone shots are really getting great and really enhance the already fantastic quality of your videos. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Hugs 💚

[@BeKindGoVegan.]

Rodney is doing so well :))) What an addition to the family!!!

[@TSIRM0]

hi nikki, can you please do a feature on how you do your filming? i am intrigued

[@KatreenKorneeva-sj9ce]

Thanks for sharing your wisdom, the effort and passion you inject into your videos are truly valued.

[@michelebullock9867]

You are doing such a great job with da boyz! Each is so unique. Rescue personalities evolve over time and it’s fun to watch.

[@josiespreitzer1690]

I used to feed my dear dog, Angel, who was also an abandoned puppy, from my mouth. She was so gentle taking food from me, so I think feeding Camper like that is adorable, too. Thank you for reminding me of me dear Angel❤️. So glad you’re feeling better, Nikki

[@karatechop]

Glad you're feeling better, Nikki! I love how Rodney sits on your lap when you drive. Very cute!

[@moryan6447]

Nothings better than adding veggies to soups, like tomato, topped off with grilled sandwich likely cheese😊

[@Monaz1]

The bread looks amazing. Rodney is learning a lot. They look cute in their little coats. He is very happy. That's great!

[@NorthToSouthChannel]

It's just SO precious to see Rodney and Camper, as brothers! You can just tell that Rodney knows he has found his forever family and it literally brings tears to my eyes!!

[@t.michaelbodine4341]

Your rig is just impossibly beautiful. I'm so jealous. Also, I had a cat named Rodney for years. I love the dogs.

[@dorothysaal7775]

Glad, to hear, you are all feeling much better!😊

[@jerryjerrylee]

You are an angel. You create wonderment and joy for those precious babies every day. So giving! It's amazing to witness!!! A million times, God bless you N.

[@sandrapicard422]

Glad you are feeling better. Camper is teaching Rodney the ways. The best way to train a new bowser. Sourdough is my favorite bread!!!! ❤❤

[@Lonnwriting]

Jaw dropping loaf of bread Nikki. Yes × 3

[@NikkiDelventhal]

Wahoo! Thanks!!!

[@bsloannyc]

How did you bake that bread in the van?

[@lyric8006]

It’s so touching to see how happy Rodney is now that he has a home. ❤

[@pme166]

Happy to hear you are feeling better. Being sick like that is no fun especially for weeks on end. Keep up the education and fascinating videos. I usually sit and watch your videos and try and spot places I have been. Too much fun.

[@kmadsen65]

I am just SOOOO IN LOVE WITH RODNEY!! Every video I watch he just gets cuter & cuter!!! 🖤🤎🤍🖤

[@PamLuce]

Rodney’s High Five was just the sweetest thing!

[@patricecoronato3760]

Nikki, you are an amazing human. I am so happy I discovered your videos! I love the 3 of you and your matching p.j.'s. GOD bless all of you.

[@NikkiDelventhal]

Thank you!!! I’m so glad you did too! Big hugs!

[@carlosespinoza2453]

[@josegonzalescedillo2399]

I can tell Ronnie is really happy and his new home and family thank you for loving those two dogs camper and Ronnie❤❤

[@rudeboy8628]

A rescue pet is just on a different level. We got a rescue cat ( all thanks to my daughter). The love and attention she gives when she is in the mood is on another level.

[@Eaglebarron]

Good job on the sourdough!!! Rodney seems like he’s getting more and more adjusted all the time. There’s nothing like the great wide open. Carry-on, mother of 2 trucker! I look forward to you guys next adventure!

[@meredithheath5272]

( Sandwich and soup looks yummiest) You make this endeavor look easy - and fantasic! (I'm stuck, financially, and can't go anywhere) So sorry you had to be stuck for so long, to hear of your illnesses and dealing with canine issues, too... Glad you're back to living your best life!

[@marisaw5150]

I can see Rodney feels so loved...

[@rogerj.fugere3570]

I originally came here for the Nikki Prius adventures. I stayed here for the Camper adventures. Now I’m treated to the Rodney adventures as well. A veritable trifecta of adventuring!

[@kevinhayes1656]

That loaf of sourdough bread looks awesome.

[@ajress]

Camper is SUCH A GOOD BOY and Rodney is a sweetheart.

[@Bill-uf6os]

Rodney's arrival has now made Camper realise he is an actor in this show and is hamming it up.

[@markk.5637]

Camper and Rodney are the best! You are a great dog trainer Nikki

[@BohoFreedom]

You're so much fun to watch. Good for YOU girl! Love seeing your channel grow.

[@moryan6447]

As to getting stomach issues in Mexico, a friend spends 6 months in PV and usually has stomach issues when he returns to California. Sometimes it’s just a change in the usual digestive flora and fauna.

[@robyn9617]

Rodney is adorable 🥰 and sooo sweet poor thing glad u found each other. Loved the gentle treat lesson and impulse control

[@MOTrav]

Not sure who likes the mountains the best? You or your dogs. I do know that the mountains are magnetic. The draw you in and always amaze. Enjoy! 😎

[@LT75TOM]

big hugs for you're lovely dogs, they have a perfect life with you nikki

[@bettyvarone4420]

Rodney is such a a sweet baby , so cute to watch him getting along with Camper, enjoyed this video , remembering my sweet dog eating right from my mouth like yours, so gentle.

[@rvwithbob]

I can't believe Rodney did a high five already. I love it. I like your editor too!

[@kenkitsul8076]

Hi Nikki. don't forget..... "a darker night dawns a brighter day." Sunshine and smiles!!!!! KEN

[@susanlilley-rizos9906]

I love anything with Rodney and Camper the video just flew by so engrossing.

[@kellinomnom]

Sorry you guys got sick and so glad you're all feeling better!

[@BooBoo-hp6dd]

❤I love camper and his new brother Rodney ,,, Rodney sticks to mom because he loves her and camper he is afraid she leave him or he’ll lose her ❤❤❤❤❤

[@megarichie007]

Rodney is learning love the PJs

[@Jim-fe2xz]

Glad everyone is feeling better!

[@FreedomRock44]

Good to see the boys adjusting well to one another and a year from now......Hopefully the best of buds! Will be so good for Camper to have a Pal/brother. Camper has been really good from what I can see...that is not an easy adjustment.

[@simonagree4070]

Oh Nikki, I love you so much. You kids and dogs are like my children and grandchildren to me.

[@Tom-pt5dr]

Very beautiful lakes 💓 what a view

[@jamesbean7560]

Sorry you were sick. It's the pits. Thanks for sharing your adventures. Vicarious fun for me.

[@thetinkercook5430]

I enjoy watching happy dogs

[@MG-pj2oo]

I started fostering over a decade ago and will never look back. 2 dogs is my minimum bc you're right, it's really not hard to add even s 3rd or 4th dog, and they're great for each other. They fill my life with love even and especially when people blow. As an animal lover i really love these videos and appreciate when you don't eat meat in them.

[@AnnieOaklee]

Always a good Friday knowing there's another video from Nikki and the boys ❤

[@susanstebila8707]

WOOOZA AMAZING SOUR DOUGH 🤩👍

[@thetv2122]

Happy you all are doing better, loved the peaceful mountain scene !!! Stay safe

[@cherylsibson2529]

The dogs are both so well behaved and so gentle with each other and you, so good to see them get along!

[@Wandering_whatsnext]

Two is better than one 🐾🐾 Rodney looks like he’s bonding well with both you and Camper. Such a sweet boy.

[@stratos175escape7]

Two lucky dogs getting to live the best life's possible. Enjoy the road and smooth travels.

[@karengraves3900]

Loved watching the boys out and about on the mountain. So happy to see them enjoying their best lives...and so cute how Rodney waited for you to pick him up!! Your bread looked SOOOOO GOOD!!!!

[@Sirshackleton]

Rodney is a cute little dude and seems thrilled with his new pack!❤😊

[@christopherharris6005]

Awesome video as always Nikki, Camper and R.V. y'all always find such unique places you could spend days there and it would be so peaceful and a epic adventure.

[@jasonlin9976]

Hi Nikki, Camper and Rv sorry to hear about all your health issues the past month, I'm also sick right now. Good to see you're feeling better and Rodney looks like he's calmed down and is being a good boy now. Can't wait till next week.

[@laurenm8561]

Glad you’re feeling better Nikki. Rodney is definitely part of the family and his training is going really well, great job!

[@BlazinBlades]

We just love all your adventures Nicky and are big fans but we keep saying how it just can’t be all that healthy breathing all that pet hair all the time and having them eat their food in your bed… Best wishes and a speedy recovery ❤️‍🩹 🙏🙏

[@susanstebila8707]

Wow I to got RSV boy that was bad…❤ your channel…it’s my favorite 😊

[@tureg8004]

glad your better Nikky and get back to being the best mom in the world to 2 great men.

[@JM-jr1sb]

That is a nice looking piece of sourdough. Bread making is kind of addicting. There’s nothing better than a good homemade sandwich.

[@wendylynch6511]

Beautiful scenery and nature! Camoer and Rodney are awesome together,cgreat company . Rodney is settling in nicely Thanks

[@kelleyalley8187]

Your fur babies are so lucky to have a wonderful mom!

[@andrewvela240]

You don't ever feel like camper is jealous or sad because of having rodney with y'all now? Just generally curious it's a beautiful thing you're doing adopting him! Mad respect safe travels. Sending love to y'all from San Antonio Texas 🤠✌️

[@joejoness9939]

11:08 that dog was like I’m not getting out until you do I remember the last time I got out first they just closed the door and drive off an left me those a$$holes! 😊

[@NikkiDelventhal]

😭😭😭😭😭 never again for this little guy!

[@carolinec221]

Looks like Rodney likes to follow Camper around. He is so adorable.

[@NikkiDelventhal]

He does! It’s cute to watch him keep up! Hehe camper is FASTTTT! Haha

[@lynnemac1402]

Sorry you were so ill, hope you and Rodney are on the up and up! So funny 'Deven-Dough' lol well done on the starter and the baking the bread looked yummy. So cute Rodney had you leave the van first and then you had to carry him on the bridge. Love that you now have two workout buddy's x

[@martysinq4831]

Your pups are getting so confident and obedient. Loved this beautiful video.

[@NikkiDelventhal]

Thank you!!!!

[@Rexodus014]

Enjoy following your travels and adventures... especially your bonding and communication with Camper and R.V. You're a Champion. Be Safe... to Be Well, Nikki ! 😊👍

[@megarichie007]

These vids are therapy ❤😂

[@rianaconklin6954]

I have a rescue dog, her name is Nova and she's half Rottweiler and half husky, she is definitely very protective of the girls in our family, we got her when she was about 6 months old, and my girls were all teenagers who lived at home, now only one is left at home but she is still very protective of us, it's funny because when my husband is home she is very calm, but when it's just myself she always goes into protective mode. She is fully trained off leash, and is great with other animals, but if a guy tries to approach me when my husband isn't there she gets really defensive. I absolutely love your channel and thank you so much for sharing and all your hard work ❤❤

[@RogerdeMoura]

I love watching you and your dogs ❤

[@angelicamari1117]

Your journey is a joy to watch. Resonates the “human-ness” that’s lacking in the rush of modern life (and definitely on the internet!!) Thanks for taking us along for the ride. 😊

[@toddmullin-3519]

Have a great weekend. Seeing your fur babies is a great start to the weekend.
