Thanks for the feedback, the bug nets were exactly what I was looking for, that will help in bug season.
For the winter camping, I appreciate the comments and the video was fun to watch, but I may not have been perfectly clear. I'm not new to hammock camping. I'm not new to camping with dogs. I was asking specifically about winter camping with a 65lb mutt (GSD/Rotty) in winter. I guess I'll try it in the backyard a couple times before I try it on a trip.
BTW, Fronkey, I like your video style. Very fun! Try attaching a carabiner to your leash handle loop. It makes it a lot easier/faster to hook/unhook the dog from your static line, as well as being able to quickly attach the dog to a tree or something (I wear a rigger's belt and attach the carabiner to the loop on the belt when I need two hands quickly) Also, don't be so concerned about your Husky and warm weather. Dogs don't sweat through their body like people do, so wearing a fur coat is not quite a harmful for them in summer as it would be for us. Dogs radiate their heat through their faces, ears, nose and mouth. A dog with a long nose and tongue and full fur coat will handle heat better than a short haired pug nose dog. I used to hike regularly with a 125lb Malamute in Georgia, North Carolina, and Tenn, in the summer and he was a great companion. Between the full tree canopy most of the time, and regular cold flowing water to play in, he rarely had any issues with heat. Just keep an eye on him and keep him in the shade as much as possible on really hot days and he'll be fine.
