Hello! We are planning on going tent camping in Florida for a couple of nights in May and have not really done this with a dog before. "Hobo" will be 5 months old when we do this and I wondered if we needed to do or take anything specific.

What I remember from camping is that many of the larger dogs were chained up (to a tree, stake in the ground, etc). while their owners walked down to the pool, etc., but that would not work with our pup as she is about 4 pounds and I'd be scared something would get her.

For those who tent camp, please share your advice and which items you brought from home that you definitely needed.

Thanks!
