Where to leave your dog while you're on holiday can be a real dilemma.

当你去度假时，狗狗该放在哪里可能是个难题。

So why not choose a holiday where puppy comes too?

那为什么不选择一个可以带上小狗一起去的假期呢？

Nelson's now feeling so confident that he plucks up the courage to take a little stroll on the roof.

尼尔森现在信心满满，鼓起勇气在船顶上小心翼翼地散步。

His high tail and relaxed ears show this pup is definitely having fun.

A cotton noodle is a cross between a poodle and a Coton de Tulear.

棉花面纱犬是贵宾犬和图莱亚尔绒毛犬的混种。

The Coton de Tulear originated in Madagascar as a companion dog for the local tribe, and it's now the national dog of Madagascar.

图莱亚尔绒毛犬起源于马达加斯加，最初是当地部落的伴侣犬，如今已成为马达加斯加的国犬。

Related to the bichon frisé and Maltese breeds, they stay small and fluffy, even when they grow up.

它们与比熊犬和马耳他犬有亲缘关系，即使长大后依然保持小巧蓬松的外形。

Cottons get their name from their soft, cotton-like coat and, especially when crossed with a non-shedding poodle, they're a great pet for people who suffer from allergies.

棉花犬的名字来源于它们柔软如棉的毛发，尤其是当它们与不掉毛的贵宾犬混种时，对过敏人群来说是极佳的宠物选择。

Whether it's putting their heads out of a car window or doing their best Titanic impression, puppies love to feel the wind in their hair.

无论是把头探出车窗，还是模仿《泰坦尼克号》的经典动作，小狗们都喜欢感受风吹过毛发的感觉。

The airflow carries exciting smells from miles around.

气流会带来来自四面八方的有趣气味。

It's a feast for his puppy senses.

这对尼尔森的幼犬感官来说是一场盛宴。

Dogs also have scent receptors in their mouths, so Nelson's getting himself an extra hit.

狗的嘴里也有嗅觉感受器，所以尼尔森正在额外享受这份气味盛宴。

The holiday high life is something this puppy could definitely get used to.

这种美好的度假生活，这只小狗是绝对可以习惯的。
