Topsy an older dog  in her basketIt's important to remember that if you take your dog onto a campsite for the night,

your tent walls and other tent walls are thin and if your dog barks,
it will wake other campers.

The large majority of dog owners are charming people who wouldn't dream of upsetting their neighbours at home. They know whether their dog will fit in.


My own dog, Topsy (left) would be a nightmare on a campsite as she
barks when she thinks anything is amiss, and I know that she would
be a right pain in the neck for other campers.
Do please consider your fellow campers if you are thinking about camping.
