Hi, Firstly thank you very much for reading this i dont realy know who else to ask as we dot have any friends or family that currently have a caravan.
We are due to get married in July and for our wedding present we are /were going to ask people to donate towards a caravan for us - as we would like to see more of great britain. The thing being is that we have to dogs (both bitches) one is a labrador and the other is a rottweiler puppy, she is just a year old. The labrador is 8 now always very well behaved and for the puppys age she is excellent at obedience, she is in traning twice a week and she is generally a well behaved dog other than excitable puppy behaviour. We have been camping once or twice with her and she settled. I have looked for sites that take dogs and realise it is very tricky for them to except the larger known dog breeds and also i think its difficult for them to get insurance for dogs such as German shepherds, rottweiler, dobermans, pitbulls and mastiffs. i am not favourable of big strange dogs myself and am very vigilant about what my dogs are doing all of the time because i know how much it puts people on edge and i completly understand the worries of mums and dads around the camp sites when there are dogs such as this around i am jst trying to work out a way we can use our caravan in a nice, safe and legal way.
i actually bought my rottweiler because i do animal assisted therapy work so i am also training her towards being a therapy dog like our older labrador. (ROttweilers are brilliant at this type of thing because of their sturdy nature).
Anyway the question is are there any sites that will take my dogs? And if not where are you legally allowed to park a caravan overnight? Exmoor have lots of mini car parks on the moors are you allowed to park there?
Thanks again
Vikki
