First camping trip with the dog

We're finally taking our new to us, 3 year old poodle, camping this weekend. She's a great dog so I'm not expecting any problems, but adding a 7th body in the trailer will make middle of the night bathroom trips interesting.

  • We have 2 boxers that go with us. If they aren't in their beds, they are in ours so we don't have to worry about stumbling over them. We just hope we still have a spot on the bed if we get up!
  • I'm sure it will; it has for us. We take our 9 year old 85 lb black lab camping, and although she has her own doggy bed, she often moves around in the night, so we find her sleeping just anywhere. Being black, of course, means there's no seeing her unless you take a flashlight, as she's completely invisible in dim light.

    But she does love to go camping, even though she needs to be kept on a lead at most campgrounds.
