When you’re hiking with a dog there are a few things you need to think about. You’re not just packing for yourself.
What to bring when hiking with dogs:
+ Pack plenty of food and water [plus, a little extra]
+ Bring a collapsable water bowl
+ Poop bag — [Pick up your dog poop!]
+ A extra leash.
+ First aid kit
Before you leave the house:
+ Check you dogs paw pads before hitting the trial.
+ Be aware of the weather.
+ Know your dogs hiking ability and don’t push it.
+ Make sure your dogs I.D. and shots are up to date.
Roxy keeps us active, but we keep her in tip top shape. This includes lots of walks/hikes, cuddles, fetch, and GOOD food. Within the last year we switched to Purina® Pro Plan® [read HERE & HERE]. Naturally, when we had the opportunity to partner with PetSmart and test Purina® Pro Plan® Savor® Shredded Blend we jumped at the chance. Note to self, triple check the bag before leaving the store so you don’t end up buying your adult dog puppy food [34 lb bag MSRP: $47]. opps. Mom for the win! HA. Oh well, Roxy still loved the chicken and rice blend.
It was a real treat for Roxy girl as their dry formulas feature a combination of crunchy kibble and tender shredded pieces!

Our dog is 4 and she keeps US young and active, I cannot keep up with her sometimes, and she's only 7lbs! #client
