Hey Elaine, whenever you are camping in bear territory it is best to take all the precautionary measures because a bear will go where it wants even if a human and dog are in the tent. Some places will have a map board or give out bear safety pamphlets at the entrance of a camping area or trailhead but it is always a good idea to read up on basic bear safety before heading out into the woods so you are as prepared as you can be.
