    Hi Alan,

    We have 2 border collies and have just returned to caravaning after 25+ years, your are doing the right thing in my opinon. Happy times ahead. We have just had a fantastic 4 days away with our boy's in fairlight wood Sussex.

    Ian.

    Hi Alan..one of the great things about caravanning/motorhoming is being able to enjoy the holidays with your dog/s. Hope you love it as much as we do. Laughing

    Hi Alan welcome to the wonderful world of caravanning and to CT. It's the ideal way to get away for a time with one's dog.

    Just make sure the dog has a nice comfy chair.

    Welcome to CC and CT Alan, you won't regret taking the plunge, neither will your dog if she's anything like mine. If we mention M'home then he goes and sits by the door waiting, he loves it....Cool

    That was one of the factors that helped us to make up our minds to buy a caravan. I thought that we may as well give the £20 a day kennel fee to the CC; mind it will take a wee while to off-set the £20k for the van and car change! Worried
