Why REI Dog Tents Matter

Studies conducted by the American Kennel Club have shown that over 75% of dogs experience stress or anxiety during outdoor trips. REI Dog Tents provide a secure and comfortable environment that helps reduce stress levels and promotes the overall well-being of your canine companion.

The American Veterinary Medical Association recommends providing dogs with a shaded area or shelter to protect them from harmful UV rays. REI Dog Tents offer protection from the sun, reducing the risk of heatstroke and other sun-related health issues.

Effective Strategies, Tips, and Tricks

Consider your dog's size and activity level when choosing a tent size.

Set up the tent in a shaded area or use a tarp to provide additional sun protection.

Place a bowl of water inside the tent to ensure your dog has access to fresh water at all times.

Keep a leash attached to your dog while inside the tent to prevent them from wandering off.

Avoid using chemical deterrents inside the tent, as these can be harmful to dogs.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Overcrowding the tent: Avoid placing too many dogs in a single tent, as this can cause discomfort and stress.

Ignoring air circulation: Failing to ensure proper air circulation can lead to overheating and discomfort for your dog.

Leaving your dog unattended in the tent: Dogs should never be left alone in a tent, even for short periods.

Using inappropriate bedding: Choose bedding materials that are comfortable and breathable for your dog.

Neglecting regular cleaning: Keep the tent clean to prevent the buildup of dirt and debris that can attract pests or cause health issues for your dog.
