There's nothing better than a weekend camping excursion with your best friend. You get to spend quality time together kayaking, hiking, wagging tails, and barking up (the right) trees. You come back to the city sore, covered in bug bites, and absolutely rejuvenated. But think of the last time you and your dog took a spur of the moment camping trip. It's probably near-impossible to pinpoint. Why? Because America and its puppers suffer from Nature Deficit Disorder (NDD)—the extreme inability to spend time outside because all the campsites are taken.
Everyone loves camping, so campsites on public land often book up to six months in advance. Even if you and you pooch want to connect with nature, you can't. This results in NDD, whose harrowing symptoms include insomnia, restlessness, and browsing nature stock photos online compulsively.
