[header] How to take your dog camping [title] Find a site suitable for your dog's temper. [step] Keep in mind that your dog will likely encounter other animals and people on your trip. Consider how well it responds to and interacts with strangers at home and on your walks together. 
If it tends to treat everything as a threat, choose a campground where individual camp sites are spread far apart from each other. Avoid ones where they're clustered together so your dog isn't constantly spooked by other campers.
