- Have your preferred stuff for cleaning and healing a cut. Dogs tend to get into things in new places.
- Doggy towels for drying off after a dip in a lake and before getting in the RV.
- We use those plastic wrapped cables to tie our dogs out at a campground. They can't be chewed through (one of our dogs could do a webbed leash in 30 seconds) and can't be broken if the dog charges at wildlife.
- For a water dish, I use a bucket with a lid. Then can seal it when we hit the road.
We also modified the screen door on our fifth wheel by putting a sheet of white PVC on the inside lower portion. Dog claws can tear the screen, and they can also see through the screen and get enticed by what is out there, and may charge through the door. With the lower door covered, they don't see it or think about it.
