Today we take a trip with the cute canines of the world who love nothing more than to hop on into the car with their pawrents and set off for worlds unknown.

The magic of being a dog and going for a ride in the car with your pawrent must be quite the overwhelming feeling. Similar to the sensation that we hoomans get when stepping onto a plane, these doggos are filled with the feeling that anything can happen, any location can be reached.

But with little control over the direction that they are going in and limited vision to see where they are going, their destination is still somewhat secret. Giving each and every ride that little bit more excitement as your doggo entrusts you with their life as you set off in to the unknown. These are those doggos, and these are their stories of car companionship, as told in this list of cute canine pics.

This guy looks like he was told that in the morning he and his pawrent will set off on an adventure of epic proportions. But with the kind of excitement that a statement like that builds in the soul of a travel loving doggo, this poor pupper could not sleep a wink all night long. Leaving him with one option and one option only. To put on his harness, head out to the car, learn to pick the lock of the car so that he can plonk himself down in the front passenger’s seat ready and raring to go the second his hooman gets in the car.

For some puppers getting in the car is all about the destination. But by the look of this doggo, it seems that the journey is far more interesting than the destination. Just look how deep in contemplation he is as he watches the wide world go by. So enamored with the feeling of moving through the world that he lives in, taking in the sights and sounds that come with a ride in the car. Indulging in the glory of the wind whooshing through his fur. This is a doggo who truly knows what it means to live in the moment.
