[pct-l] the dog issue, sorry to have brought it up

No, I'm sorry. 

I only gave my own opinion and didn't mean to start anything.  Since you 
asked and were talking about a thru-hike, I didn't know you already did the 
Sonora section.  Perhaps it would have been better than if you explained your 
dogs experience beforehand.  If you think you and the dog can handle it, 
fine, but it's not the AT or a few mile hike to a 14 footer.

Best of luck,  Sly
