If you ultimately consider an awning ‘drive away’ or the ‘sides and front ‘ like the Comfortz room, there are a couple of things to remember… Drive away awnings, some have sewn in ground sheets, better to curtail your dog from sneaking under and through. Others have no sewn in groundsheet and you just have a footprint or tarp, it’s easy for any dog to get under and out. However some sites say “No sewn in ground sheets allowed or even No groundsheets”… it’s usually when on grass pitches.
A wee separate pop up tent may be an option where you could angle the opening to face your van , or away from passing neighbours humans and dogs.
Whatever, I’m sure you will have lots of adventures and find what works for you.

Oh my, what a beautiful boy! Really helpful advice, the whole campervan experience is new to us, I am learning so much! I like the idea of a pop up tent, that could work well. Love your family photo, is that on a site somewhere - looks very peacefulIf you ultimately consider an awning ‘drive away’ or the ‘sides and front ‘ like the Comfortz room, there are a couple of things to remember… Drive away awnings, some have sewn in ground sheets, better to curtail your dog from sneaking under and through.
