So a few quick statements about Kelty and our stay at Migrino Beach.
1. Kelty had an owner (Hensley even talked about him in the video). It was a farmer in the village a few hundred yards behind our boondocking spot. He also owned a camel.
2. We called 2nd Hand Ranch the the day after we met Kelty. We were told they could not take her because her life was not in danger (that changed once she chased us).
3. Kelty needed medical help before she could make a 20+ hour trek under our dinette with our family of 4 in the Viva. We contacted 2nd Hand Ranch the day after we dropped her off. We knew she was sick and had a hurt paw, but the full diagnosis after being treated by 2nd hand ranch was Ehrichiosis, Kidney Infection, and a Vanarial Tumor.
4. Our videos are typically 20'ish minutes. This particular video spanned 14 days. We cannot (and honestly will rarely) ever be able to share every detail of every situation. We cut out the day we volunteered at the local Mexico dog shelter to clean out the pens & play with puppies. We cut details about how between Marissa & I we adopted dozens of animals between our families as kids including cats, dogs, rabbits, horses, pigs, iguanas, raccoons, ferrets, and pretty much any animal you could imagine being taken in. We didn't show the hours and hours we spent with Kelty rubbing on her, feeding her, and loving on her.
We loved Kelty. And we adore animals.
Please redirect energy toward helping animals rather than hurting Marissa with comments about her not being a caring person. She has been crying and is shattered because she knows how much she loved Kelty.
- Nathan
You all did the right thing. I don't think dogs can be easily taken across the border. Thank you for your videos! The views were beautiful to see!
@@bethdawson889 We genuinely wanted to and had discussions about it. We didn't mention it on the video, but Kelty also had medical issues. We knew she had a hurt paw and was sick, but after contacting 2nd Hand Ranch the next day we also learned she had Ehrichiosis, Kidney Infection, and a Vanarial Tumor.
You made the hard and correct decision to get her healthcare. It is harder but the right thing to do. If she has CTVT she is way better to be at a place to get healthcare and play with other dogs as she recovers. Too many people would have done the easy choice and take her with, then later find out she needs healthcare. Marissa is a very smart Nurse and I am grateful you made the choice for Kelty and showed this, to many people do not think of the animal first. From a family that took care of many abused dogs to show them love and get them in a safe home I thank you for doing the right thing for Kelty.
You did the right thing.
The fact that a rescue place was called, and your volunteerism shows how caring y’all are. God bless you. A similar situation happened with friends of ours and a stray who “adopted “ their family. There was simply no room in their truck to accommodate a dog as they travelled. 😭
The sight of Kelty chasing after you just about broke my heart. What a sweet dog!
She was so sweet. We would have loved her, but she needed care and taking a wild animal in 24ft would have been challenging for her. After she gets some care, she will make a great friend for someone.
@@LessJunkMoreJourney She will. You do have to realize the environment that a dog will do the best in.
I know your situation was not ideal for a wild dog but I was bawling my eyes out and yelling, "Don't leave her" at the tv. I'm so glad you all got her to the rescue and pray she lives a happy life ❤
She is definitely at Second Chance Ranch. If you check in their pictures she’s in a pool with another blonde dog. You can tell it’s her by the spot on her head. Thanks Lindsey for making that phone call. ❤
We wished we could take her, but she needed care and our small RV would have been challenging for a wild dog. Once she gets proper care, she will make someone a great friend.
Is there a link ?

Says that picture was a year ago.😞
That pic is from a year ago
Once again, I can’t help but say what an incredible experience that you’re exposing your children too. You are the best parents. Safe travels. Blessings to each and everyone of you.
Awe! Thank you!
Oh man glad you guys were able to call someone about Kelty. The driving away scene was heartbreaking. UA-camrs Eamon & Bec just helped open a dog rescue in Cerritos Beach. The Cerritos beach dogs and coffee shop. (I’m case you find any more strays lol)
Oh wow! We didn't know that! That's incredible!
Yes that's the first thing that came to my mind when they mention the dog❤
What a beautiful experience! I am so glad yall found a rescue organization for the sweet doggie. You are giving your kiddos a magical childhood!
We wished we could take her, but she needed care and our small RV would have been challenging for a wild dog. Once she gets proper care, she will make someone a great friend.
Looking at the comments it is clear that many of us have a soft spot in our hearts for dogs. 🐶 That "soft spot" can make it more difficult when we make the choices we know we need to make. I totally get why you could not keep Kelty. It is a good thing you guys sought to make things better for her. 👍
Thank you, she was awesome but there were so many reasons we could not keep her and we posted a comment with updates if you are interested.
Was I the only one who saw this & started bawling when she was chasing after y’all?! 😢 that broke my heart..so glad y’all took as best care of her as you could!!! ❤ safe travels & I love your vlogs!!
I cried my eyes out. What a tough spot for you guys to be in. Heart breaking. I’m glad Lindsay was able to find that good girl some help.
There are so many added layers of complexity with this dog that weren’t shared, she was having some health issues which would have prevented her from being able to cross the border. She was a free range dog and that was the life she was accustomed to- how would it be fair to make her live in a tiny rv and never free roam.
It seems so easy to say we should have just taken her- but there’s so much more to the story that we didn't have time to share.
@@LessJunkMoreJourney True
No one can find fault in you finding Kelty a place to get medical care and play with friends, riding in a small RV when she needed medical attention was not the choice to make. Man that had to be so hard, I am very grateful you thought of her and her medical needs, thank you for showing that also. It is heart wrenching as she loved your family but top priority was her health care. I hope when she is adopted you guys can visit her. Thank you for showing the very difficult decision to get her healthcare not just take her with you.
Thank you for seeing that and sharing it. It’s hard to read these comments and not feel defensive of our friends and decisions that we made together about what truly was best for her.
Thank you for seeing that and being kind.
That’s sad that one of your friends had to leave on a family emergency. I hope they made home alright! I started crying with the kids about the dog you found. The dog sure did like you by following you. Glad you took it to a shelter and getting it some care. Poor dog.
Lyndsay, so very proud of you for finding some help for Kelsey! You did a great thing. It's wonderful that you showed compassion and took action to make life better for someone else.
😭😭 That was heartbreaking watching Kelty run after your RV 😭😭 I'm SO THRILLED she is now at Second Chance Ranch! ❤❤❤ I pray she finds a good home. And prayers for your friends who had a family emergency.
Thank you.
A family friend has been rescuing Mexican ferrell dogs and getting them adopted in California. Kelty has got to be a sweet dog based on how she tolerates the kids.
She was amazing! Once she is well, she will make someone an amazing friend.
She was so sweet
Glad someone did something for the poor dog
It's so cool to see things like the turtles through a child's eyes. JJ was feeling fear for the turtles because of the big wild ocean. Then he talks about the turtles moms. You can see the thoughts in his head with all those questions. So sweet. That's why I became a teacher. The wonderment of children. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you.
Wow!! What an amazing video!! I felt the tears of you and the kids for the dog, Kelsey. And the turtles, wow!! And the whales!! What an amazing trip and day you had for yourselves and your family!!!!!!
What a great video, lot of emotions, thanks for sharing your life traveling in Mexico, great experience for the kids, they will remember these moments all their life. Beautiful beaches, dog running behind your RV... the release of the turtles in the oceans, OMG! so inspiring guys.
I get so excited for your children!! What a beautiful very real life you share with them. Love your videos; I know they are a lot work 😊
Love seeing the baby sea turtles. So cute have the kids see them and help out them back in the ocean. Great video! Have a great weekend and see you all soon!
I got to do the turtle assist in Bonaire. We found 16 that hadn’t made it out of the nest, so our visit/search was their rescue. It was an awesome experience for us too. 😊
That is awesome!
Thank you for taking care of Kelty’s needs. You are such a caring family! Not going to lie. I cried along with you when you said your goodbyes. God bless you always. Love your videos. 💛
Thank you so much!
Loved the turtle hatchlings, I would so love to witness this someday. What a beautiful lesson for your children. And the beaches were beautiful.
I live at the coast in NC. There are authorized volunteer organizations that mark and protect turtle nests. When it gets time for the nest to "boil" and the hatchlings to head to the sea, we often get out chairs and go sit and wait with the volunteers. Sometimes it takes sitting (in the dark, no lights to confuse the turtles) at the same nest a few nights before the magic happens. I never get over that special sight of those babies waddling to the ocean.💙💙
Thank you for sharing.
You guys are great. I'm so glad you did the right thing that most people don't even think about doing. You helped out that stray dog. Then you took the time to get the dog help. Most people are not even kind to the STRAY animals in Mexico. Thank you for going the extra mile and helping not only that dog but all the animals your family is in contact with.
Thank you.
Such a tear inducing video this week. Very moving. Thank you for sharing your journey with all of us.
Thank you so much!
Such a beautiful adventure in life you are all having.
tears of joy thanks
You guys have such a beautiful family, and hearts of gold. There are so many more people who watch you that appreciate that then there are people who want to pick apart everything they see, oblivious to all of the other realities you deal with that don’t make the cut. I don’t comment much, but wanted to pass on a word of encouragement since you’re having to deal with all the should have could haves.
Thank you.
Amazing video!!! I was sad your friends had to leave and pray that all is well. Then, I cried for the kids (and the dog) when they had to say bye to the dog.
The turtles were just beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
So glad you enjoyed! Lots of emotions.
Another great video!! You guys do an amazing job with videography and editing. Thank you for sharing your story with us week after week!
Thank you so much.
I cried along with Hensley….so glad the dog is getting help
THank you.
I was nervous at first for you all going into Mexico..but. after watching this video it's such a beautiful place! I cried twice watching today. You guys rock! Now I want to rv in Baja , someday.. we just got back from 3 months in Florida.
Thank you so much!!
It would have been impossible for me to leave that sweet dog. What a sweetheart. I can relate to Hensley’s reaction. Can’t tell you how many dogs my parents took in because I wouldn’t leave them. But, I’m happy she will be taken care of. Hopefully she will be the perfect match for a family out there.
There are so many added layers of complexity with this dog that weren’t shared, she was having some health issues which would have prevented her from being able to cross the border. She was a free range dog and that was the life she was accustomed to- how would it be fair to make her live in a tiny rv and never free roam.
It seems so easy to say we should have just taken her- but there’s so much more to the story that we didn't have time to share.
lining up @ the Coutts , Alberta border crossing on a normal day is what that line up reminded me of
I just have to say I have watched you guys almost since the beginning. I am so proud of you guys for all the things you have done with your channel, your lives and lifestyle and most importantly showing this amazing world to your kids.
Thank you so much!!
Kelty......I cried so hard, something about kids and animals melt my heart. Speaking of kids, yours are living the dream, what an amazing childhood!
This was so hard for them, and us. We know she is getting the care she needs.
Thank you so much. This was a hard moment but we are glad Kelty got care.
Such a great time, thanks for sharing. Safe travels
Thanks for watching!
I have been watching for years when Hensley was a baby then the struggles you had then to you joyful J.J what a blessing you two are awesome parents and people, you last Baja trip touched me 💞 and thank Marissa for the update on the dog 🙏🙏
The baby turtle release top it off what a great journey 👏
Thank you so much!
JJ and Hensley get an A+ for a great science project experience ❤
They sure did!
What a wonderful experience!! ❤️ Thank you for sharing!!
So glad you enjoyed!
Talk about a learning moment! It's amazing to see life begin at the beach.
It really is!
Hey Marissa and Hensley you all did great for Kelty . Sometimes all you can do is love while you have the chance. So good of all of you to love her so much. You too JJ sorry I left you out before. Your lil turtles were so cute. I’m so thankful you were there to help them into the ocean. Great job! Thank you
Thank you.
How amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you.
Great Video, so glad you found a place for Kelty! The baby turtles were amazing...
Cerritos is where Eamon and Bec are helping set up a dog rescue! I wonder the time difference in when you both were there!!!
Wow really!?
Yes, really!!!!!!!!!
@@sherribeach4160 it didn’t come up at all on my google search, there are many rescues down there!
Best video yet of your current journey. The scenery in the beginning was not as beautiful as it is now. So envious of your turtle experiences, and the whales! The heart strings took a hard tug with Kelty as I totally identified with why you couldn't take her but you did her a good turn in the end. I hope your friends family emergency ends ok and God be with them. Thank you for always making me feel I'm right there with you. 😘
There was so much more to the story about her.
@@LessJunkMoreJourney You guys did great! I would have done the same thing.
Wow! Such incredible experiences and memories made. Your kids are the sweetest. That JJ is adorable. Keep having fun and sharing. The best to your family. Thank you!
Thank you.
@@LessJunkMoreJourney You're very welcome.
It is good to hear Kelty is getting help. Thank you for sharing the turtle story, it was wonderful
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you.
I just love watching your journey. I look forward to your videos.
Thank you.
That dog would've been coming with me but thank God you got help for her. 😭❤️
We would have loved to have her, but she needed care and taking a wild animal in 24ft would have been challenging for her. After she gets some care, she will make a great friend for someone.
What an amazing experience for the kids. This makes me want to travel in Baja.
Awesome, glad you enjoyed it.
Wow! Absolutely beautiful 😍 thanks for letting us all live vicariously through you!
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you.
Love watching the turtles! It is magical!
Thanks for the turtle release piece.
So happy you were able to help Kelty! I hope she finds an amazing family ❤️
Thank you.
That was amazing, thank you for sharing. Your kids are so adorable!!
Thank you so much!
That was such a great video thank for sharing. If we can't see it all we are so glad we get to view it thru you guys...Mike and Laurel
Thank you so much.
Wow!! Great view the Beach color❤
Yes it was!
I enjoy you videos - I find then helpful and look forward to the next one. Thank you for sharing. Great family and friends.
Awesome, thank you!
Fun and awesome video. Thank you. Blessings
You are so welcome
Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!
Amazing video. Amazing experiences! Amazing people! I'm so grateful that sweet dog found you. Thank you for taking such good care of her. She's a lover and she is going to be just fine. ❤
You are so kind, thank you.
The turtles were just beautiful. Tiny and the release was breathtaking. Thanks for taking me along on your journey. Love you all.
Love you!
This one has had me laughing and crying. I have watched you for so many years, and your videos just keep getting better. Y'all are Awesome, and so extremely blessed!!
Thanks so much
Wow what a wonderful trip. Your kids are never going to forget this. This is much better than going to school they are learning so much. Of course, they are home schooling too, but these trip are great. What beautiful beaches and the turtles, love it❤❤❤❤, hope your friend are ok...have a great rest of the trip and stay safe.....
Thank you.
Those baby turtles are precious! What a great opportunity for you and your kids.
Super vlog guys glad Kelty got taken care of. That beach was beautiful loved the whales and the cute turtles. Safe travels thanks for sharing.❤🤗🇬🇧
Thanks so much!
Thank you for sharing this with us!
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you for watching.
I love Cerritos and Todos Santos and Topo Chico!
I did that trip a couple years ago. You did a wonderful job of catching the essence and spirit of the Baja. Great drone footage of the whales!
Thank you.
I didn't realize y'all were going to make me cry too. I have to go hug my dog now.
This is by far your best work. I was moved to tears on many levels ❤!
Wow, thank you!
JJ "Oh my goodness" so cute.
Lovely 🥰 video…it ended well for everyone and for all the creatures, big and small! ❤
Big thanks
Loved the turtles. So awesome
Great video as usual!! 😘😘
Thank you! 🤗
Thank God you rescued that dog It was clearly one that had been abandoned as it was so good with humans. It broke my heart watching that and I was just praying and then you said that you'd called the rescue. I really hope she's okay she deserves a good home. It's really sad you couldn't take her. Also I would not feel safe travelling in Mexico as I have another camper friend on UA-cam who had a terrible time so please be careful all of you but the turtles were adorable and the whales. I've watched your channel on and off for about 4 years and you always have the most beautiful camera work well done. It's also very impressive that you've lasted so long in this lifestyle which is not easy as I know. I've done it myself for a few months in the UK. Bless you ❤
Even prayed for JJ when you were trying and so wonderful to see him becoming a young man. God is so good 👍
There are so many added layers of complexity with this dog that weren’t shared, she was having some health issues which would have prevented her from being able to cross the border.

Watching the caravan journeys of you all and Lindsay and Stewart is great to see. Has made us want to join a caravan!
Hey that is awesome, congratulations.
Definitely some amazing journeys in this video. It was awesome!
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you.
This was one of my favorite episodes of this season!❤❤❤
Awesome thank you.
We have to always look after dogs, they are by our sides when we are sad and lonely, they bring joy to the darkest times ❤

Fantastic and beautiful video. God bless, He truly made a beautiful,mysterious world for us to explore and enjoy.
Thank you very much, you are very kind.
What fun and great memories watching the baby turtles!! 😀😀🐢🐢
What a great life your kids have. Great parents.
Thank you.
What a wonderful experience, once in a lifetime and so educational😊
Thank you.
Good for you in making sure the dog was going to be looked after. That was the best thing you could have done. Also, this was another great video.❤😘
You are so kind, thank you.
One of my favorite videos from you guys. ❤❤❤ From saying goodbye to the dog, getting him to a shelter and then releasing the turtles into the ocean.
We love you guys.
Parenting win. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much.
Cerrito Beach Dogs just opened as a shelter and would have been a great place for Kelty. Check it out and meet Eamon and Bec!
Thank you, we got Kelty care locally, which was the best at the moment.
Amazing, beautiful lessons your children will learn and remember from these experiences. Both with calling a rescue for the sweet mama dog and the baby sea turtle release.. We were able to do a sea turtle walk in Georgia in which the mama turtles were coming on beach, making the nest and laying the eggs! It was a wonderful adventure. Thank you for sharing your travels.
You are so kind, thank you.
For all who were touched by Kelty’s plight…I know from my own involvement in animal rescue, a donation to Second Chance Ranch would definitely be appreciated by the organization…❤️
I asked for a link to donate or adopt her and it appears my comment was deleted. 🤷🏻♀️
The turtles are so ADORABLE!! LOVE THEM ❤
So neat to watch your videos. I love turtles. Thank uou.
Thanks for watching!
oh my gads I was crying watching that sweet dog chasing after you .. and then to see the turtles what an awesome experience .... thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching.
HAVE FUN X ADVENTURING STAY SAFE GOD BLESS
I think this is probably the best video you've done in Baja. Not necessarily the production, I pretty much don't know anything about that but the content was really good this week. It kinda tugged at your heartstrings. I especially liked then turtle segment. Keep the good stuff coming guys and give the kids a hug for me.
Thank you!
Wow! So glad you were able to get into that beach. It’s nice and beautiful there! It’s a shame they only let a few hundred people in at a time. It’s a very beautiful beach especially when you climb up a hill to to look all around .
Amazing journey family 🏖 beach and turtles 🐢 ❤
Thank you 🤗
Whoa the changes from when we used to anchor our boat there or go by car. It literally would be us. Once it was us and a hurricane coming. Still just us.
Thank you for getting the dog help
Thank you. We did what we thought was the best for the dog.
OK....the turtle thingy was way way cool. I'm a big kid and I was enthralled, I can only imagine what was going on in the minds of those kids. Thank you!
Thank you.
