Our Sadie loves her traveling with us. She sits in the back seat of the TV on a raised seat with a bed of sheetskin - nice and furry and can see out the window. It is secured by seatbelt and she is secured to it.
To the point. We get to many NP's and all. She is content to stay in the 5er and she basically just sleeps; we have never heard any complaint. We will not, however, stay away more than 6 hours or so.
When it comes to restricted areas we follow the the rules - for her safety, the safety of others and - guess what - it is the rules!
We learned something at Old Faithful. DW Barbara took her for walks in the parking lot while I set up a photo shoot and all. Then left her in the truck and joined me for a short time.
We were then told by the park staff that Sadie could have been all thru the viewing area all the way to the No Dogs sign.
She said that is true at any NP. You can go to the No Dogs sign anyplace.
So that has now been our practice. If there is not a No Dogs sign, Sadie comes.
Pretty simple.
Main thing is safety of your furry loved one and all the other animals (also humans).
Be safe. Enjoy.
