Have a little look at these instagrammers who travel the world and take their (furry) best friends along with them. From diving into mountain lakes, snoozing in a hammock, sniffing around in the sands of Monument Valley and peering off ragged cliffs into mist-filled ravines; these dogs and cats are living the best life. A life we wouldn’t mind a slice of!
So without further ado, have a sneaky peek at our top traveling pets of Instagram having the adventures of their lives! Where in the world would you take your pet pooch?
10 Pets of Instagram having Adventures we only Dream of…
1.Theron Humphrey – @thiswildidea
With his bio stating he’s “finding my way back to the important places”, you can really see it reflected in his Instagram feed. Traveling slow with his Coonhound Maddie, Theron ventures through the States soaking up the nature whilst capturing peaceful moments.

2. Loki – @loki_the_wolfdog
Loki the wolfdog sure is a cutie. He travels with Kelly Lund (@shark_toof) around Colorado and loves new adventures! This husky/arctic wolf/malamute mix is never left behind – Kelly Lund explains: “Growing up in a family that took dog ownership very seriously, I had my fair share of experiences with large dogs. Loki was different though. Instead of him entering into my world, I felt like I had to listen closely and enter into his world, if this was going to work out. At that time, I decided that I would do everything possible to not leave him behind at the house. We started backcountry snowboarding together when he was four months old, and before his third birthday, he’d seen most of the western U.S.”
And they haven’t looked back since….
3. Aspen – @aspenthemountainpup
Aspen the Golden Retriever is living an adventure, and sure looks majestic whilst doing so. Catch him learning how to paddle board, chilling in the mountains and snuggling in a tent with his owners. Bliss…
When in doubt, head to the mountains. There’s no place I’d rather spend my day!

5. Andrew knapp – @andrewknapp
Up in Canada, Andrew travels with his Border Collie, Momo, and a sweet yellow camper van. He speaks home truths and the struggles of life on the road in a super slow, trundling van, but wouldn’t change it for the world. Be sure to read his captions when having a scroll…

6. Bolt and Keel – @boltandkeel
Time to throw some cats into the mix! You didn’t think it would all be traveling dogs? These brothers are adventure cats who hike, paddle and snowshoe through the wilderness. Bolt and Keel were abandoned in a park, discovered by avid photographer Kayleen VanderRee. She was about to embark on a mountain trek, and since the animal shelter was closed, she took them along. Now they love nothing more than perching on her shoulder or standing proud at the bow of a canoe <3
You can also check out their photography collection in a new book coming out October 2017: “Bolt and Keel: The Wild Adventures of Two Rescued Cats“.
Sometimes getting lost isn’t so bad with views like this #boltandkeel #explorebc
