We will be camping with our 3 dogs (Bambi, Millie and Bug) when we get our Tab 400 next spring. When we had a 34ft Rockwood Windjammer, there was plenty of room for water and food bowls inside. We would like to figure out where to put at least one water bowl inside for our 2 older pups. I was thinking of putting a bowl in the cubbie below the wardrobe then maybe put a little shelf above the bowl to be able to still use that space for some storage. Any ideas?

    I bought one of the silicone two dog bowl holders, added one water bowl to it, and I placed it straight across from the door. That ended up being a place that I never seemed to step and it rarely spilled. Of course, this was for one dog and not three.  I also placed her food bowl in the silicone holder, too.

    We have food and water under dinette, still kick it once in a while and then we empty prior to travel. There really isn't a good permanent location in such a small trailer.

    The under wardrobe cubby on 2021 TaB400 would work for small dogs.

    Similar to @Verna, I am using a silicone bowl holder.

    I would just put it wherever the dogs tell you they want it!

    We are going to prop open the wet bath door then we are away,  then who knows the dogs may tell us they want a drink of water.  One will immediately, the other?  At least you won't kick it over until you got to the restroom.. and it has a floor drain.

    @rhyno, in the shower end of the washroom floor, al prop the door open enough for the dog to get in.  Anywhere else in the 400 would be under foot.
