My problem: Our yappy little dogs
Hi everyone. I'm new the group but I've been lurking for a while. I have learned a lot. We have not bought our RV yet. DH retires in June or July so we are deep into researching. We have a problem ...

Crate them and leave the radio or TV on while you are gone. That will keep them from hearing every single thing outside, and from seeing it.
If they've never been crated, you need to start now training them. Get crates with plenty of room for them to move around. Put a nice bed in them, or move their beds into them, and some toys or treats, and leave the door open. Pretty soon they will come to regard the crate as their "home" and like it. Then you can start closing the door and leave them in it while you are outside in the yard... out of the house but close by. Work up to leaving them crated for a few hours at a time.
Bless you for having the consideration for others to realize that your dogs might not be perfect little angels. If more dog owners had that attitude, dogs might have a better rep in RV parks.
