We made the trip from the western edge of Idaho to the Rushmore area this past May. We had two overnight stops, one outside of West Yellowstone and one at Bighorn Battlefield. The winds across Montana and Wyoming kept our speed way down, just to keep safe. We spent several days touring the area between Custer City and Spearfish. It was our plan to drive out to the Badlands and Wall Drug for a day, but the winds were so high that I could hardly force the door of the pickup open to get inside, so we decided that was not a good idea.
I guess what I am trying to say is something similar to what others have said. This part of the country is HUGE. It takes way longer to get from one point to another and you really never can count on not having plans changed by weather. Even with the two of us (and no dogs on that trip), I can't imagine trying to get through the trip you are describing in two weeks.
