However, after much research and consideration, it seems that it is not really feasible to take a dog on the whole trail due to:

I am of the opinion that the majority of people can give me a laundry list of reasons not to bring him(which I am still interested in), but I am especially interested in anyone who may have some insight into successful dog hiking. Thank you all!
