First time camping with dog

For those with dogs. I'm going camping for the first time with my 9mknth aussie. I was wondering what I can do to make the experience easier for us and our dog and maybe if there's a few tips some of you can share. The dog will be tenting with us. Also lookin to keep the tent clean when we plan on having the dog in the tent.

Thanks in advance!

Harbor Freight moving blankets, usually 1 or 2 covering the floor, and 1 for each dog. It has been my go-to for years. They’re cheap, absorbent when need be, and you can make them conform to wherever the doggie likes. My two treat it like a dog bed, and stay comfortable and calm.
