A portable pet fence for camping is helpful in keeping your pets close to you as you enjoy the great outdoors. It is a space surrounded by fence panels typically set up next to an RV or tent.

The fencing system allows your pets to play and exercise without you having to supervise them constantly and also prevents then from roaming around the camping area as well.

Below outlines some of the factors to consider as you hunt for a good pet fence for camping.

1. Construction material
2. Height
3. Doors
4. Yard size
5. Additions

Construction material

Whatever camping pet fence you decide to purchase, you should always examine the material used to design it. The key to an excellent camping pet fence is heavy-duty material with a weather-resistant or rustproof coating. It will also obviously need to withstand the rigours of transport as well as dogs rubbing against, or chewing on it it too.

Height

Most pets, especially dogs, can jump over the pet fences we put up so it is always essential to consider their height. For example, a large or tall dog will require a much higher fence than a teacup poodle. Consider their height on all fours and when they’re up on their hind legs trying to reach you.

Doors

Most fences are equipped with a door which is helpful especially if dealing with larger dogs (or even tea cup pigs). After all, you do not want to be trying to lift a heavy dog if the entrance that is too narrow so ensure that the fence is not only high enough as outlined above, but has a door wide enough as well.

Yard Size

This determines how much space you give your pet to move around in. Although as the available space can change from campsite to campsite, most options will include multiple panels with some degree of adjustability.

Additions

Other potential additions include:

1. Ease of use: Some models include very complicated instructions which make the product difficult to set up and disassemble. A pre-assembled unit may work, but these can be difficult to transport in a camper.
2. Ground anchors: These keep the pet fence in place so that your pets cannot easily knock over in case they become over-excited.
3. Storage pockets: Some camping fences, such as those made from durable fabrics come with pockets useful for keeping some handy pet items within your reach.

So based on the information above and my own experience, I recommend the following options:
