Did Hubby think this thing through all the way? I can't think of any dog that I would want to let run free in an unfamiliar area (unfamiliar to the dog). Who knows what wild animals he might run into or what diseases they may have? I'm sure the dog would be having a great time, until he gets rabies or ripped up by a weasel or something. Oilfields are usually out in the middle of wild land.

If Hubby is dead set on traveling with a dog he will need to take a portable doghouse, for protection from the sun; lots of water and water and food dishes; and stake the dog out on a very long lead. My experience with oilfields in Texas is that they are hot during the summer and have very little if any shade. Hubby should also invest in an animal health insurance policy so that any emergencies can be handled at any clinic wherever he is and carry a copy of Doggy's medical record with him.
