I know I haven't been chatty for a while. Been a busy busy bee.

Now we're taking a short break with a bunch of friends and going camping for three days.

I was wondering if there was any advice any of you could offer about camping with dogs. I've done beach camping with my parents when I was younger and their black lab but I wasn't in full control of the situation/was a kid and not really paying attention haha.

I know its not really fully camping camping (though I'd love to someday do the hiking/camping trips again) its a pull up - park walk a few minutes to your premade grounds lol.

Either way its a new environment outside and I was just wondering if there was anything I should think about that I've missed (besides food, toys, sleeping area, bowls)

any doggy bug spray out there? I haven't had the time to look. (yea we do the flea, tick, heartworm that everyone does monthly) just heard that its ticky in that area.

Thanks so much!

Roxi is doing well and is two years old btw (joined when she was four months old hoo!) :) I'm waiting for that chance to actually sit down and update the profile and toss up an updated blog on whats happened in the last year.

Cheers!

I recommend a cable tie out attached to the leash-- something like 8 ft so she can walk around the campsite and still be on leash and hang out with everyone. We just went camping over Mem day with Talula for the 1st time and that was a well used purchase.
I always flag the dogs with day-glo survey tape, hunting season or not.
I worry about snakes, but we're seldom in snake country.
The only insect repellant that works on me is 100% DEET, and I'm afraid to put that on my dog (and the dog might hate the smell more than the bugs).
You want to make sure they won't run off if you have them off-leash in a strange place.
