Bow Wow's Bark

Bow Wow the Vagabond Hound Hiking in South Africa.
"WOOF! As if driving across Africa on a tight budget was not challenging enough, my owners (an entrepreneurial couple with a tempestuous relationship) are attempting to do just that with me, their rescued dog, while trying to get their online shop off the ground.
Together, we plan to drive from Cape Town to Edinburgh, searching for wonderful handmade treasures along the way. The Internet is making the business world a much smaller place - it enables us to help sustain rural communities through ongoing trade and maintain a nomadic way of life.
The deal is, if my owners make it back on speaking terms, there'll be wedding bells, if not it will have been one helluva ride. Wish me luck!  Love 'n' Licks, Bow Wow"

Vagabond Road Trippers Starring Bow Wow
This montage of our life on the road was created by The Really Interesting Picture Company using our footage. They're pitching this to networks and hope to make a documentary about our journey. We would love to know what you think.


Meeting the Bushmen near Tsumkwe, Namibia
We meet and Bow Wow licks the Ju/'hanse San people, or as they are more commonly known, the Bushmen near Tsumkwe, eastern Namibia. Bow Wow thinks that spear throwing is a game of fetch and wows the tribes with his tricks, (keep your eye on the bushmen watching on the right!) while Lucie makes jewellery out of ostrich eggs and Lachlan considers ditching his Calvin Kleins for some Bushmen budgie smugglers.
