Hiking with your dog

When you go hiking with your dog, do you have the dog wear its own backpack? If you don't then it might be something that you should get your dog use to wearing. Having your dog carry its own snacks, water and poop bags will have you carrying less. Even having your dog carry a small tick spray and doggy first aid kit will make your hike less stressful.

There are many styles of packs for dogs. Some are as elaborate as the expensive, human, Millet Backpacks or you can get creative and make your own. Don't forget to add some reflective stripping to the pack to make your dog more visible at night while you are near roads.

So when the weather permits it, have some fun and go hiking with your dog.
