You will love camping with your Yorkie. They love it, too, because they get to play outside a lot. Be sure to watch for predators, tics, foxtails, etc.

Will it be cold at night? Your pup is probably used to sleeping at 68 to 70 degrees, so anything colder could be uncomfortable. Pay attention to her and don't let her shiver. We've snow-camped with Eddie before, and I keep a fleece coat on him at night and he does fine. If cold is an issue, you might think about getting a small foam pad for her to lay on and a blankie to snuggle into.

My wife usually snuggles with him in the sleeping bag, too, but you've gotta be very careful not to roll over on her. And let her decide if she wants to snuggle.

Most importantly, take lots of pictures and post them here!
