How do I take my dogs camping?

So, I have 2 dogs, a border collie puppy and a springer, and me and my family want to go camping. We don't have a car so they can't stay in that and I don't want to tie them up outside because of wild animals and i don't own a crate for them. What other options are there? Because if they stay inside the tent I'm sure they could/would climb out under the small gap by the door. Idea's anyone?


Answer
OK - crawl out the tent? What gap? If you have a gap in your tent - you don't have a proper tent (the purpose of tents is to SEAL the outside to prevent bugs)

My dogs are leashed in my tent. Because if a bear, or moose, or raccoon or even chipmunk comes near - they MAY decide to blow through the netting. My dogs are older now, and seasoned campers and it hasn't happened but leashing just adds that measure of control.

Please do not tie your dogs out - more than one person has awoken to find their dog killed or injured - and a dog CANNOT stay in a car .

When I took my Doberman puppy camping - I did bring a small crate (a veri-kennel designed for small dogs) and had it inside the tent with me but it was fall and not hot, and its purpose was to keep puppy from getting too cold and from chewing. (Puppies cannot self regulate their body temperature the same way as adults)

Depending where you are - it could be very very hot and putting a dog in a crate in a tent with poor circulation of air will be harmful to puppy.

If you crate the dog outdoors - it will be tormented by deer flies, mosquitoes and every other flying thing. Its unfair to a dog.

You sound like you need to keep your dogs at home or board them.
***************
For clarity - my dogs are not confined in the tent except at night when I sleep. Tents can become extremely hot in summer and its very uncomfortable to be in one. At times, its suffocating.

My puppy was taken on a 2 day trip and only in the tent at night. During the day, I had the dog tied out when I was unable to actively supervise. But again, only 2 days - a short trip in nice weather.

Going on a long trip with a puppy in extreme heat is NOT a good idea.
**************
I'm assuming you are not camping with an RV - I canoe and portage (hump) everything I take on my back. No x-pens or heavy equipment.
