"I traveled from London with my young son and a dog to see my brother race in the Milton Keys World Cup. We arrived the night before - I booked a pet friendly accommodation, something you have to think about when traveling with a dog. Our dog Ruben has to have his bed so we always travel with it. At the last petrol stop, Ruben's bed got doused with fuel. Ruben was freaked. We wrapped it in plastic bags but decided we needed a new bed. He's really a light sleeper and kind of neurotic when he doesn't get a good night's rest, so finding a replacement dog bed is critical to his and our mental health. Ruben's fav luxury round bed came from GoodNightDog.com - a large circular pillow bed - so we could reorder it online and soon get things back to normal. Ruben's comfortable  sleeping environment is essential to good health so he can be here to watch the race without creating a distraction. My brother finished in the top 10 and was jubilant over it. He's trying to convince me to enter next year and I'm thinking about it." Wanda Turcell
