✅ 10-Point Checklist for Camping With Your Dog

1. 🐾 Leash (and Backup Leash)

Your dog will find something to chase. Be it a squirrel, a stick, or the smell of someone else’s bacon — a leash keeps the chaos contained. Bring a backup. Trust us.

2. 🦴 Treats & Food (Theirs, Not Yours)

Bring enough food to avoid “just one bite” syndrome. Dogs are not subtle beggars. Add a treat pouch and maybe some chew toys unless you want your tent stakes to disappear.

3. 💦 Water Bowl + Lots of Water

Your dog will ignore the lake and try to drink your coffee. Pack a collapsible bowl and plenty of fresh water. Mud puddles do not count.

4. 🛏️ Dog Bed or Blanket

Unless you’re cool with sharing your sleeping bag. Spoiler: it will end with a paw in your face and a nose in your armpit.

5. 🐕 Doggy First Aid Kit

Thorns, ticks, mystery burrs… the forest is basically an obstacle course of minor injuries. Tweezers, booties, and paw balm will come in handy.

6. 🚶 Long Line or Tether

Let them roam safely without actually escaping to Canada. Clip it to a tree or picnic table so they can explore within reason (and stay out of your neighbor’s chili).

7. 🧻 Poop Bags (Bring Extra)

Because nature is not your personal dog park. And no one wants to step in a “trail bomb.” Double-bag for trail karma.

8. 🧼 Towel & Wipes

You will need this. Probably twice. Wet dog smell is inevitable. Bonus: they double as napkins after your dog eats half your s’more.

9. 🐶 Current Tags or Microchip Info

The woods are wild — make sure your pup can be identified if they decide to go full Lewis & Clark.

10. 📸 Camera (or Phone)

You’re going to want to capture that moment when your dog sticks their head in the campfire popcorn bowl. It’s inevitable. And hilarious.
