I have left our dog in the RV while we were gone and she tore up the blinds so bad we had to replace them. some one said to get a travelling cart and put her in there while we are gone. yes we left the A/C on but camping in a CG with other people around, she barked at them to warn them to stay away from her TT. every blind on that side of the TT was torn up.
Thanks for this info. We just got a new Standard Poodle (14 months) and are taking him on his "maiden camping voyage" this weekend. He also tends to bark if someone gets too close Ie people doing yard work etc. We will try to leave all the blinds up, AC on and TV up. Will stay away for increasing minutes to see if he is barking constantly or not.
How did it go? I go on my maiden camping trip in a couple of weeks with my 5 mo. old.
A good long walk before you leave is highly recommended. A tired dog is a quiet dog. If your dog is crate trained, bring a crate and use it when you leave. It's worth the extra hassle to fit it in, to get things started on the right foot. DON'T leave your dog alone until your dog recognizes the rig as "home" (at least after you've spent a night or two). A stuffed kong is a good thing, or another favorite chew toy.
