Camping with Your Big Dog

I have been planning a camping trip with my sister for years. But she doesn't like camping so she keeps pushing it back, which makes me want to fist-fight her, but she would win so I just let it go. (haha kidding). But I have been asking her for years to go camping with me at Yosemite National Park. Our dad lives in California so there would really be no problem. We could just go for a weekend and have fun in the outdoors. Of course on this trip I plan on taking Achilles. And I have already found the gear I would need to make sure we all have the best experience. Of course we would need a big tent, I would have Achilles sleep outside, if he sleeps on my bed, he might as well sleep inside the tent too.
As for actual dog gear I will need:
  • A life jacket in case we want to go on a raft. 
  • Boots for the hiking trails. Rocks and sticks could hurt their paws. Also snow or too hot ground.
  • A backpack to put in snacks or a...
  • Dog water bottle (which is also great if you like to go jogging with your dog.) Remember they too can get dehydrated. 
  • A pouch bowl, could be easier for packing
