Summertime is the right time for you to pack your bags and take your furry pal for an ideal season of camping. It not only makes you feel connected with the nature, but also makes your camaraderie with the doggy stronger. If you are someone who loves camping then sharing the experience with your furry pal will provide even more satisfaction. Dogs are excited when they new smells and sites of the camp site. You will see a new side of your furry pal when you go camping with him. There are certain interesting features that your doggy notices that you might otherwise overlook. Also remember that for camping your doggy does not need to be in the best shape. The only thing that you need to ensure is that you have adequate supplies when you backpack for the camp.

Let us now focus our attention to some of the camping tips that will make the trip a wonderful experience for your doggy:

1. While travelling, stop at regular intervals so that your doggy can go for bathroom breaks, drink water and have adequate exercise.

2. In case you need to leave your furry pal in the vehicle even for a short duration ensure that there is proper ventilation, shade and water for your pooch.

3. Carry your dog’s essential products like toys, blanket and bed so that he feels at home at the camping site.

4. Always assure the furry pal that he is safe, secured and loved.

5. Keep a watch on the health of your doggy.

6. Always be vigilant about the diseases that your furry pal can contract in the wildlife.

7. Carry flea and tick repellents and collars if you find that there is a higher risk of fleas and ticks in that area.

8. Give adequate time for the doggy to adjust to the new surroundings.

9. Give enough rest to your furry pal.

10. Never leave the doggy unattended when you are outside with him.

11. If you have any leftover food keep it in a place which will not attract wildlife and insects.
