Who takes their Dog?

Just curious who many of yall hammock camp with your best friend. I have a one year old Pit mix I do everything with and and definitely going to take her camping. She goes in the boat all the time and sleeps with me every night. I don't see why she wouldn't love a hammock haha. Curious on how any of you do it or pack for them. She has her molle service vest that I was going to put a bad on each side for things for her.

There was another great one I watched on YouTube just today a member here and his girlfriend and dog GREAT video he even built a hammock for his dog which hangs right below his. Somebody chime in with that one, please it was a terrific vid.

I am interested in taking our Border Collie, so I am interested in this also.

Cute pup, by the way. Is she a working dog in training or do you use that to enable to travel with you. I won't tell, promise!

I take my dog with me on almost every trip except for winter.

My pup Tala comes with me on every single trip. Last year we hiked over 2,000 miles together and this year is looking to be even better. There's no one else I would rather be out in the woods with.

I have a lab and she loves camping with me. I have a ground tarp with a blanket for her and she lays under my hammock. There are alot of hogs where we camp and she lets me know during the night if something gets close. I always sleep better when she's there.

Buddy loves hitting the trail for some hammock time.

Um, didn't you just get married? And go on a hike with your bride for the honeymoon?

You might get some slack because you've still been married less than a month, but get with the program, buddy!

Newlyweds.

He'll learn soon enough!

I have hiked with my dogs for years but our older dog just could not handle going on trips any more so last summer we adopted a rescue and we got her right out on the trail.

Since then she has put on a good bit of weight getting up to a healthy range and has been going on runs with my wife. When we got her a 1 mile run had her pretty winded but she has been doing 5 miles recently like it's nothing. Plan to have her out on the trail a bunch this next season.
