NOTES:
Food & Water: Our water is great but some dogs cannot take the change of water (like people) so you might want to bring bottled water or water from home. For food I take zip lock baggies and fill each with the correct portion of food, them I toss them all in a container with a tight fitting lid. At meal times simply grab a bag and pour it in his/her dish. Reuse the baggies for your food waste and your camping unit won't smell.
Traveling Doggie Bag: All the new scents can be confusing for your dog. Pack a bag with some comforts from home such as his favorite toy, bedding and snacks.
Clean up "droppings" immediately - stuff empty toilet paper tubes with used grocery bags, for bigger dogs use paper towel tubes. It is the great outdoors, not the great outhouse. Dog waste breaks down slowly unlike moose and deer "scat". Many campgrounds have banned dogs because of dog waste issues. We all love dogs, but we all hate stepping in or sliding on poop.
Keep your pet hydrated - the extra panting makes em' thirsty, during the summer water em' frequently!
6' Leash Rule: this rule sounds strange but those string things are dangerous for pets and owners at a campground. When the dog chases a squirrel and runs around the tree, you could get "damaged". Also when 2 dogs on the string things meet, they get all tangled up. It also is more comforting to your pet to be closer to you.
ID Tags: You should always have updated ID tags on your dog with your CELL PHONE number when you travel. If your dog is famous for running off, get a sharpie marker and write your CELL phone # in large print on his/her collar.
Medications & First Aid: They sell neat first aid kits for dogs that include first aid books. They are great for home and travel.
