Let’s call this one: small pups CAN hike! 🐾 Yet, hitting the trails in Arizona last week, sooo many hikers were surprised to see a small pup… blazing the trail!
•
Multiple times we heard (joyfully! 😅): “Awww, that’s a little INDOOR dog!”
•
➡️ It got us thinking… “What size of pup, or person, makes them “trail worthy”??
•
Just like us, Maxx had to work up to accomplishing longer hikes. Until he was about 20mo. old - he’d join for ~1 mile over smooth/flat terrain, to allow his bones to form 👍. Now, he’s happy until mile 5~6. Best part about a small pup — he’s easy to carry when he’s reached his max!
•
And like us, he’s ALL smiles on the trail 🥹.
•
After, he’s calm, content — and no more zoomies 🏎️.
•
Simple Reminder that the trails are for EVERYONE - age, size, race, and ability👏.
•
Ps— is Maxx not grinning in pic 3?! 😂
•
•
PSS - let’s ensure our pup friendly trails are left pristine! Packing out EVERYTHING we pack in… including 💩👍.
