A great activity for almost any breed of dog is getting out into the great outdoors on a camping trip. Although it may be a great idea, there are some practical issues that owners must consider before taking their dog or puppy on a camping trip and these will vary slightly depending on the age and obedience level of the dog.
The first and foremost issue is to determine how off-leash trustworthy is your dog. If he or she does not come back, has a history of chasing, or is a breed that is known to chase or get on a scent trail and simply ignore commands, owners must consider only taking the dog camping if they are on a leash or lead. Although this may seem a bit overprotective, consider the alternative. If your dog or puppy takes off and runs after a squirrel, rabbit or other animal through a forested area or wild area, he or she may be miles away before they realize that you are no longer anywhere near them.

You can also provide treats when the dog or puppy gets out of the car, just to let them know that they did a good job. [...]
