Caravan suitability for dogs.

My C/van was bought new, I removed the carpets to under the bed. I bought an Awning for the clutter, I 'fleece rugged' it out to enable my 2 Dogs access to all seating areas. I had it 3 yrs & lost a couple of grand on the sale. I think most C/Vans can have that minimalist of changes done to be honest. Dog friendliness is down to the inventiveness of the owner

When we got our latest new caravan I removed the loose carpets, then fitted the floor with a piece of cheap carpet, roll end. We then cover this with a rubber backed runner with we can was after each trip. All our seats are cover and then have extra throws on top of the covers. All gets washed after each trip.

We don't put throws on the seats as the dog is not allowed on the seats,they are for humans.  The floor and a basket is for dogs 

We put throws on our seats, but our dog is only small so it's not bad at all.  I think most caravans these days have removable carpets with a wipe able surface underneath.  Very useful if you have a dog and it mears you can take the carpets up for cleaning if you wish to leave them down.  We only have a very small dog, but the caravan works for our dog.

You're a hard master husky

I don't agree that dog-friendly caravans aren't already around.  We have a Bailey Barcelona which has most of the features the OP is seeking.  We have removed the carpets, revealing the vinyl covered floor - which we cover with three cheap runners from one of the cheapo shops.  The seating isn't velour or anything similar but, like others, we cover them with throws.  There is a shoe cupboard next to the door and another opposite in which we store all matters 'doggy'.  Plus, there is a stable door and a fly-screen across that door which can both be used to keep the third member of our family confined if required. We also like basic sites and inevitably Meg, our Cockapoo, gets muddy - but we always wash and dry her paws in a bowl outside the van before she's allowed inside and she knows she isn't allowed on the seats until her feet have dried!  There's also plenty of room for her own bed on the floor.  The van gets a thorough clean every time we have been away (every month for the last two years) and it still looks brand-new inside.

The one big advantage we have is that, being a Cockapoo, she doesn't shed, so we don't have the problem others may have with dog hairs everywhere.

But fair 

With a well thought out Human/Dog friendly design within the C/van Dogs can access all areas(if your attitude allows) without the Van suffering. No Dog of mine has ever been just a Dog marill so all areas are for all not just Humans. It can & does work

Anyone who own's a Husky will know how much they moult ,hence the reason for not allowing them on the seats

To be Frank, I wonder if Marill will come back and tell us what he/she thinks.
