I would not leave my dog in the trailer or a truck bed crate simply because he has not been trained for it. Many hunting dogs are and “kennel-up” with no difficulties.
Running a generator to cool the trailer while traveling seems a bit over the top to me but to each his own when it comes to comfort.
My wife and I are in Florida traveling with our dog. He has a bed on the back seat of an extended cab pick-up. Coming from the north, when we needed to leave him in the truck, we could keep the windows down a bit and the cab would stay cool. Once we reached FL it was a different story.
It is hot down here. So the dog stays in the trailer if we are gone for any length of time. I assume the “Do not leave the dog unattended” means chained outside.
I learned a long time ago that "Any fool can make a rule; the greater fool ignores his commonsense and follows the rule."
