Our dog traveled everywhere with us. He was well traveled. Probably over 30k miles, including a 7900 mile trip cross country from Virginia to the Pacific Ocean in downtown Los Angeles.

Our 5 hour rule was a pita sometimes. Without the dog when in LA we would have left in the morning and not come back until after dark.
From everything I've read, Yellowstone seems to be the most pet unfriendly NP there is. Because of that, we're taking at least a year off from owning another dog. We plan on doing Yellowstone next June.
We lost our wonderful 4 legged traveler in June of this year.
