    Dog Gone, Camping

    Anymore, no thanks. They consume your itinerary and plans for the day, and everything ends up revolving around them. Spent 40+ years traveling with bird dogs, sometimes as many as seven...and they consume or inconvenience nearly every aspect of travel. Cleaning up waste, getting back to...
