Pets left alone in RV at campground?
We are now a dog owner and would consider bringing her on next camping trip. Question for all: is it considered acceptable to leave dog in trailer while we are away? Windows and vents will be open,...

Every dog is different, but we leave our dogs alone in the camper often depending on where we are going. We bring their kennels and put them in when we are gone, the both sleep and stay quite, never had anyone complain and we have asked if they bark.
We have gone to Yellowstone, left the dogs home. We went to Glacier, stayed outside the park. Locked the dogs up when we were in the park, they were fine. We also go to events where the dogs are not allowed outside the RV area, we lock them up, there is lots of activity around the RV's, the dogs never bark when inside, but bark at lots of people when they are tied outside the RV. We never leave them unattended outside the RV.
When we typically go camping, we are doing it for the dogs as much as ourselves. Every day we plan times to go hiking, with the dogs. We don't go places the dogs can't go and we plan our days around activities that involve everyone and the dogs. Camping is a full family activity.
