Howdy, I'm going on a 4 day hike in a couple weeks on the AT and I'm a little nervous for my dog because this will be the first time hammock camping with her.

Usually we camp in a tent over night and she sleeps well in the tent with me. This time I'll guess she'll be under me? The only real concern I have is at night she could see 'everything'. So if a bear or a coyote wanders into our camp in the middle of the night.....

Am I over thinking this or is it a non-issue? I'd appreciate anybody with experience leaving their dogs out over night giving some input. Thank you!
