Taking your dogs is a great part .they will sleep fine . Good walks and keep warm . We use indoor canvas kennel for our two Terriers, try fan heater if you have EHU or normal gas heater if not . Your with them 24/7 so you both benefit

My chap comes with us camping in France.
He's pretty chilled out for a terrier and loves nothing more than watching the world go by from his own camping chair.

I keep his lead and harness by the door, saves faffing about in the night/morning looking for it and all zips get put to the top as he can open zips.

He is a sound reactive barker but teaching him thank you and enough soon settles back down. We do this at home so he's well used to what is acceptable behaviour. I take windbreaks incase I need to block his eyeline. With mine I find distraction works best so I usually take him off for a stroll to take his mind off whatever is causing him to be unsettled. As a last resort he has a chew and is put on his bed in our bedroom pod rather like a doggy timeout.

It depends on how you camp.

I got when I have my 2week access to my eldest 2 and we took Hugo the pug/jack cross.    

Now we are used to day trips every day and having poor Hugo with us took that away from the kids as dogs are not allowed anywhere.      And to top it off poor Hugo could have been at a family members enjouing bacon and eggs for breakfast as my mum enjoys spoiling him.   

He was so miserable the whole time I would never take him again.

If you dont mind not being able to do much then that will be fine for a dog but it becomes an issue if your always off out.

The logic of my formula tells me your stupid because you prefer hotels.

There are loads of places you can visit and things you can do with dogs, its just a matter of doing your research. We wouldn't dream of camping without Bailey, it would be like leaving one of the kids at home! We visit beaches, go on steam trains, enjoy lovely walks and even have meals out, all in the company of our four-legged family member!

I agree with TraceyD, do a little homework on the area first. We recently went to Norfolk and we researched all the dog friendly beaches and places we could and could not go and I can tell you we had a very busy time!! It just depends on what you want from your holidays.
If in doubt, Google it is my motto.

Its the first time on a two week camp with our dog, I have spent more time researching, what beaches, what pubs, where to go for a day, what pubs, good dog walks...have I mentioned dog friendly pubs yet?
