Last week early one morning an elderly man was walking around Tennison Bay campground in Peninsula State Park, Fish Creek, WI. He told me he went down to the lake and couldn't find his campsite, there are a lot of loops. I took him to the campground host, Bob, who called the office to find his campsite. Bob made a great suggestion for all of us, especially children & the elderly, "Write the campsite number on the back of their hand with a pen." ------------- John & Sue 2016 179 - built in April 2015 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.6L 13-16mpg with 179 - 21-28mpg without |

That is a great idea. Similar concept could work for dogs also; clip a tag with campsite # on it to their collar. ------------- Rob & Becky 2014 Ford Explorer 3.5 SOHC V6 2015 R-179 Pod aka Piddle Pod "Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass, it is about learning to dance in the rain!!" |

How are dogs supposed to read it when it is on their collar?

They use their nose to find their way back home something that they have a big advantage with over humans. ------------- 2018 Vista Cruiser 19BFD (2018- 2012 Vibe 6503 (2014-2019) 2009 r-pod 171 (2009-2014) Middle Tn 2014 Ram 1500 Quad cab |

Moosepod does this. They have some of those bright luggage tags, and at each campground, they make sure the tag lists the CG, and the site number. Our dogs have tags with our cell phone numbers on them. Most campgrounds we have good cell coverage.
