6 tips to make your outdoor experience more enjoyable for your furry friend
My husband and I are camping aficionados.
We’re not experts and we don’t get out nearly as much as we’d like — the sad truth is that in 2021, we’ve already had to cancel one of our planned trips because of COVID restrictions and another one is teetering in the balance.

We live in a big city, so taking the time to unplug and revel in the quiet rustling of the trees is an enormous treat.

If you’re taking your furry child on an overnight outdoor adventure this summer, keep reading to learn a few tips that will make your stay in the wilderness more comfortable for your four-legged friend.
