We’ve rounded up 15 camping essentials for dogs that you’ll want to make sure you have for your travel buddy.

SEAT COVER Sometimes we only focus on the destination, but getting there is just as important! Travel in style and comfort while protecting your back seat from pet-related damage with this waterproof and non-slip seat cover. Courtesy of Amazon 2. COLLAPSIBLE FOOD & WATER BOWLS These collapsible food and water bowls come in a four-pack with different color options (because who doesn’t want to change things up every now and then?) and are easy to clean, carry, and store. Carabiners included. (If you’re worried about size, I have these for my GSD x Aussie mix and they are PERFECT.) Courtesy of Amazon 3. LED COLLAR Convenient and cool. These light-up collars will help your dog stand out in the dark (and the crowd). Courtesy of Amazon 4. BOOTIES Waterproof and reflective, these dog booties are perfect for hiking on rugged terrain or for protection around your campsite. Plus, they’re cute. Courtesy of Amazon 5. HIKING BACKPACK Camping and outdoor gear can be a lot to carry—now your pup can help! This durable and water-resistant doggie backpack is great for hiking, camping and trail walks. You’ll be blazin’ trails (or tails) in no time. Courtesy of Amazon 6. PET FIRST-AID KIT Chances are you have one of these for yourself but have you thought about getting one for your dog? This may just be one of the most important camping essentials for dogs. This 100-piece pet first-aid kit has everything from bandages and wound dressings to a tick-removal kit and an emergency collar. Voila! Instant peace of mind for you and your pooch. Courtesy of Amazon 7. HANDS-FREE LEASH Fun camping activities like hiking and running just got easier! Next time you go on an adventure with your pup, take them along on this hands-free leash. Hint: It’ll go perfectly with their hiking backpack! Courtesy of Amazon 8. TIE-OUT CABLE WITH STAKE Let your dog roam around your campsite with this tie-out cable. It comes with a stake for the ground, so you can give your furry friend the freedom to explore without being off-leash. Courtesy of Amazon 9. ELEVATED BED Your dog can sleep in style while being just as comfortable as if they were at home on this elevated bed. It’ll keep them off the ground, plus it folds for easy travel. Even better? It comes in different size options, so you can pamper your pup—big or small! This one is perfect for small to medium-sized dogs. Try this one for larger dogs! Courtesy of Amazon 10. PAW BALM It protects. It moisturizes. It heals. This paw balm is perfect for keeping your dog’s paws protected when they’re exploring the great outdoors. Courtesy of Amazon 11. PAW CLEANER Did your pooch have a big day on the trail? Keep their paws clean and mud-free with this easy-to-use paw cleaner. This is definitely on my Amazon wish-list. DISCLAIMER: You will likely still need to bathe them when you get home! Courtesy of Amazon 12. PET WASTE BAGS ‘Nuf said. Plus they’re environmentally friendly. Get them here. Courtesy of Amazon 13. DOG GOGGLES Have you ever seen a dog in goggles? If not, I’d highly suggest looking it up. These bad boys can protect your dog’s eyes from (mostly) anything nature can throw their way. Check these out if you have a small dog. If you have a medium to large dog, try these! Courtesy of Amazon 14. JACKET If you’re camping in a cooler climate, you may want to consider a jacket for your pup. This waterproof, reflective and fleece-lined coat is just what your dog needs. Courtesy of Amazon 15. TRAVEL BAG For all of my efficient packers out there—this pet travel bag comes with two containers for food or treats, two collapsible bowls, and plenty of space to store other toys and/or gear. Definitely a must-have. Courtesy of Amazon There ya have it. Consider these 15 camping essentials for dogs when prepping for your next adventure. Where will you go?
