Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Ordering fifth wheel for Fido
Permalink  

Greetings Friends,

We will be ordering a fifth wheel pretty soon and there are several items we will be special ordering , but I wanted to ask ya'll what you recommend as far as protecting my dogs while left in the fifth wheel.  We will be doing a lot of boondocking but staying in campgrounds too.

I've read the post and this is what I have gathered so far.

Temperature controlled Fantastic Fans  2
Magnum Automatic Generator Control System
???


Am I missing anything here??  I would like to get whatever is available installed when we order our new fifth wheel.  I love my dogs.

Thanks ahead of time for your input:)
Dixie

I think you're fine with the Fantastic fans. They will prevent the rig from getting exceedingly hot.

Keep in mind that dogs have evolved over 10's of thousands of years before there was anything like air conditioning and they did just fine.

Probably more important than the temperature, is how long we leave them alone. They do miss us so much while we are gone.

I think you must have a backup if your power goes down. Another thing dogs left in a RV for long periods is not a good thing. True dogs have been around for many yrs but not left in an Rv.
There is quite a discussion on this on traveling with pets on this forum.

Thanks Fred and Judy.
We have a 12 year old lab and will be getting a puppy soon so this info really helps.
I was wondering if there was any new technology available prior to ordering our fifth wheel.
You have both been very helpful as always:)   Thank you.    Dixie
