Dog kennel/crate training will solve that situation permanently. Actually he was/is completely trained. Much more than most dogs. He is 2 1/2. However we went from a big house to a tiny camper. He is a bit stressed when his whole family leaves him to go outside, especially since almost all the windows are covered, the one in our bedroom is the only vessel he has to see outside, and it faces where we park the cars. And even if we wanted to crate him again, the crate does not fit in the camper.Re: Have no idea what I'm doing-help!Well Yall didn't pray hard enough. Ac didn't get cleaned because expert husband stuck his hand in the fan while running and is now nursing a split open finger and fingernail. Oh the adventures we have endured lolRe: Have no idea what I'm doing-help!Ok just got back from getting my popcorn. Not gonna shave my dog-that was a joke. But enjoyed the debate! Husband's about to get on the roof now that it's only in the 80s outside. And dodge makes the best truck.Re: Have no idea what I'm doing-help!It's a 2007. I would guess the a/c has never been cleaned. In fact, that's what I told my husband to do when he gets home. Even watched a YouTube how-to so he's an expert now! (Pray for us please) I'm sure it's filthy especially with the dog. He decided to start to blow his coat right after we moved in and brushing him/vacuuming every day isn't keeping up. I see a razor in his future....Anyone considered installing a real door inside?Has anyone considered installing a true door inside? We have a "bedroom" separated by a privacy curtain, and the opening is just right where I think we could put a true door. 4 kids sleep up front with our 90lb german shepherd. Living in the travel trailer while we build our house and have about 6 months left to go. We get the bedroom in the back. The door isn't so much for privacy, but because our dog is getting into our room when we aren't home, jumping on our bed (has never been allowed on furniture), to look out the windows, and he's broken the safety latch on one window from shoving the curtains up with his nose so he can watch for us to come home. We also end up sleeping on a fur coat. Anyone ever done anything like this and could it feasibly be done?Re: Have no idea what I'm doing-help!That's an idea which would work for now. We are pouring a separate slap on our land and having hookups placed out there so we can live on site during the build. Would it be possible to have a normal household outlet in addition to the 30 amp on the same pole or whatever?Have no idea what I'm doing-help!We bought a camper 2 months ago to live in (family of 6 plus a german shepherd, yes we are insane) while we build our house. Silly us, we know nothing about campers (but are learning). It's a bumper pull 34 ft. One thing we didn't realize is the fact that the a/c only gets it down to 85 in here during the day. And honestly, it doesn't blow well and the air isn't too cool. I'm most worried about my poor dog-he's dying in here. Next week temps go up to 105-110. We are in arkansas. We live in my brother's back yard and had an electrician hook up a 30amp thingie which we are plugged to. The heat got so intense we bought a 5,000btu window unit and installed it in our bedroom. It's plugged into a wall outlet in the camper. It says it draws 6amps and our roof unit draws 15 and we have a total max draw of 30. We actually thought about getting another 5,000 btu for the front and not use the roof unit at all since this window unit really works well. BACK to the point now, the breaker keeps tripping. But only at the hottest part of the day. At night we can run both, have 2 tvs and the playstation on, and even run the microwave without it tripping. But during the day even with everything off and the fridge on propane, the breaker trips repeatedly. My brother has also complained of dimming lights in his house. So...what do I do and what could be wrong?
