[pct-l] Dog Help

[Paul Magnanti]

Though meant for the Appalachian Trail, the general concepts should apply for the PCT:

(Written by a veterinarian!)


Obviously the desert hiking is another ball of wax from the AT. Most of the snow fields a hiker typically crossed are in NPS lands where Fido is not allowed, so that is one less
physical hurdle for Fido. But a possible logistic issue for you.

Good luck!

ps. "He would be far happier on the trail than without his master for several months."

Or maybe it is  the reverse ;-)
