Hanging with dogs, what do your's sleep on?

[Two Tents]

My dog, ben, has a cut to his specs for length, a Gossamer Gear 1/4' thinlight pad. He likes it ( he stays all balled up, all night, right under my hammock) and it has help up well after two years of hard use. It makes a good door mat for me. Ya gotta keep weight on it till boots off time or it'll blow away. It straps, compactly, on the top of his pack in a DIY cuben stuff sack.

I have a picnic sheet (blue) I got at Walmart, that I use for my dog and as a door mat. If it is cold, I add a peice of CCF pad.

Car camping I have a kennel with a nice soft blanket for them. I use the kennel to keep them safe. I just got a child's play pen for indoor and outdoor use for my dogs. You can find them at Walmart. It is an 8 panel pen that can contain my dogs so I can enjoy some camp activities.

I made mine a tent. He still prefers the dirt but now has figured out how to weasel his way into a hammock with someone in it. He rests his cute little puppy dig chin in the edge and most people can't resist. He's a 50# mutt and I can't blame him for liking hammocks over tents.

This is what we did for our dog Max, and works extremely well. Another addition we did for colder times is add a space blanket, we have wrapped him up in it on several occasions and surprisingly he stayed put and it didn't blow away. We also made him a quilt out of a poncho liner, he loves that thing, nests in it and doesn't move.

We bring two extra Ti sheppard hook stakes to stake down his stuff so it doesn't blow away, so far has worked very well and not caused an issue when he nests in his bed.

Last trip i was on we had 5 month old pup with us. She got a bit cold just sleeping on an outdoor blanket so i turned into a quick mini tarp shelter using some mini paracord and 2 tent stakes to protect her from the wind.

Mine are so small that they stay in the hammock, don't even notice them until they start whining to let us know they want to relieve themselves.

Get yerself a real cheap lightweight 1 man tent with a screen door and put them in it next to you. you'll need to protect them from the Mos-Quit O's too or else they will get heart worm. Just find something really cheap and small at wal*mart or somewhere. Heres one they would like. > http://www.walmart.com/ip/Wenzel-Sta...eps-1/24806269
Also; give them your pillow. They would like that.

What if you could score one of those display model tents you sometimes see. You know the ones i mean.. might work perfect for a smaller dog.
