ParticipantIt can get VERY warm in June
It can get VERY warm in June in Italy and France, and any ventilation, ie window open is a security risk and a roof vent in my opinion not enough. The air would be warm too.
To be honest, I’d rather pay for a months board in the UK than stress the dog out in the heat by leaving him shut in the van.March 27, 2013 at 6:49 am #118848mgroadster

Participantyer, that’s what I’m starting
Yer, that’s what I’m starting to think. Loads of websites say how easy it is to take your dog, but I’m not convinced. I want to take him with me when we go to places but its probably not going to work too well if we get somewhere and he’s not allowed in…mmm will have to rethink. Thank you xMarch 27, 2013 at 7:57 am #118854fairy312

KeymasterI spent a week in Paris in
I spent a week in Paris in June 2011. We stayed on a campsite in the campervan. It was 30+ degrees celsius everyday. We left the roof vents open on the camper all day. When we returned from the city at night, normally after midnight, we would have to leave the van doors open for 10 minute to let the heat out. That is far too hot for a dog.As mgroadster says, you can’t leave the windows open for security. You can’t take a dog to the city either.
Better to leave the dog at home.

ParticipantIts hard to imagine hot right
Its hard to imagine hot right now. Its been cold so long. My concerns when he stays in the motorhome for a couple of hours at the moment is ‘is he too cold’ even with his blankets etc. I think you’re both right. I wouldn’t leave him in anything near that heat and as a natural worrier anyway I would spend all the time worrying. Thanks for helping me figure it outMarch 27, 2013 at 9:20 pm #118866fairy312
