Utah National Park Trip June 2018

First, disregard what these people say about your dogs hampering you. I have been camping since I was 12 and I'm now 65. I've been RV camping since the early 80's. For the past 20 plus years we have camped with our dogs. We have gone to the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, the Black Hills,Florida and have never had a problem taking our dogs with. We stayed in Madison Campground in Yellowstone last May. Our dog traveled with us to most places.There are plenty of places to walk your dogs without going on trails.Most of our camping neighbors commented on how pretty and friendly our Lab was. We occassionly leave her in the trailer but it has never really kept us from doing things.The joy of having her with and the expense of leaving her in a kennel are 2 more reasons to take your dogs with.Since you will be in Arizona, I would suggest taking some time and go to Cottonwood and stay at Dead Horse Ranch State Park. You are very close to Jerome,and old mining town and Tuzigoot,Indian ruins from the 1300's. And Ft Verde,about 20 miles away is a restored cavalry post from the 1880's.
