    Hi,
    Great walk, especially with your dog.
    Did he pick up any ticks along the way?
    That’s the only thing putting me off taking my dog

      Thanks for the comment.... Up to around Kingshouse we were having to de-tick him daily. We lost count at around 35. He's shorthaired though so easy to spot and he was up to date with vaccinations, so we had no issues from it. If anything, he enjoyed the attention

    Great vlog guys, it was great to watch from the comfort of my settee as I ate my moussaka.
    Did I feel guilty? Hmm a little 🤔 😅.

      @@CanvasandPeaks it’s getting better for dog owners, did it first in 2021 no dogs allowed in Green welly then, now they do and no problem getting in cafes etc. If the dogs not allowed in we go elsewhere simple, spend our money where we are welcome

    Amazing Video, was lovely meeting you both at Kingshouse/ Kinlochleven. I'm back off in September to do the whole 96 mile. Looking forward to seeing your next adventure - that lad from Creswell (Sam) :)

    How weird that TH-cam suggests this video to me, begin watching and then remember seeing you guys on the walk! Well I remember seeing the dog with the saddlebags if I'm being honest. :)

    • @CanvasandPeaks
      @CanvasandPeaks  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Haha nice one. The dog definitely got more attention than we did. But then I suppose it makes sense... Did you enjoy your experience on the hike?

      Loved it! Was an amazing experience.
      My hiking partner got a bit of a bad leg but soldiered through and got it done in 7 days.

      Fantastic mate you will love it. It's a great experience especially with your furry best friend. We did it in May 2023. Everyone along the trail and all the food places made sure our dog was well spoilt with both treats and drinks if needed. Just be mindful of Juras paws on the last stretch to Fort William as it's long and mostly gravel track so could lead to sores etc. our boy was ok though.. please keep me posted and let me know how you get on... Good luck 💪 if you want any more info just shout up 😀

      He carried 3 days worth in his packs, with us carrying one for him. Then we had a parcel sent up and waiting for us on day 4 to restock. There are plenty of shops along the route but our dog has allergies so has to have his specific food

      There are baggage transfer services that you can book on the day or in advance from place to place. We decided to not risk the weight on the Loch Lomond day from what we had heard about it.
