    I don't even have a dog and I'm watching this.
    BTW, on leashing dogs, while on a day hike in the Adirondacks, I came upon a couple who lost their small dog (that was off a leash) when a larger dog chased it (that was also off a leash) and the little dog was terrified and it disappeared. It was heartbreaking to hear the owner calling for her dog in tears. I hope she found it.

      @@amazon7891 agreed, I came across this guy with a small dog off a leash running around a trail like an idiot and he had the audacity to ask me defensively if my dog was friendly when my German shepherd was on a leash! Some people act like they own the world and they have no consequences for anything they do, hes gonna learn the hard way one day when his unleashed oversized rat dog meets another unleashed dog that's not the size of a burrito.

      @Zach Blechner Look up cooling vests! I have a cooling vest for my dog from a brand called Hurtta - you dip it in cool water and put it on the dog and then it insulates the cool water temperature close to the dogs body (especially chest region with all larger blood vessels etc). It works SO well!!

    I came here to look for upgrades and instead this is just exactly what I already own for Bud lol
    Something something great minds, something something alike
    -Idk I'm not a great mind
    And yes, if the dog is being insane and wild and won't calm down and it's time to watch a movie or something... I take him outside for a run and then just put his pack harness on him (the Ruffwear harness sans pack) and he's just immediately chill lol
    The Ruffwear gear is all just absolutely game changing. The hands free leash I use every day. The pack, the sleeping bag, the pad, big time saviours. The shoes he still hates wearing, even on pine needles that he hates, we're working on it.
    Now, anytime I pick up his sleeping bag, he's just jumping around hoping we're going somewhere lol
    Also the Ruffwear Knot-A-Hitch? Amazing.

    Loved this video! We have a Nala too, haha. Our other dog loves to hike and camp, and we've used some Ruffwear hiking boots for him but have had an issue with them slipping down under his dewclaw, which causes it to rub a blister. (We've used socks and vet tape with them too). I'd definitely recommend to anyone using the boots to really be sure to check every once in a while that they are still in place, especially the first couple times they use them. We love the Palisades Pack so much! The handle is fantastic for helping your dog get over obstacles. Great video, as always!

    Thanks! Hiking the AT with my dog was a childhood dream. Turned out the dog I adopted would not have done well on trail and I didn't actually get into backpacking until I was 36, but [shrug]. Someday when I have another pooch, I'll probably try taking them out on trail. This video will definitely get a second view then!

  • @drivingmissmolly
    @drivingmissmolly 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have two mini doxies that act like collies, energy for daaaays. However, I know I’d always have to carry their gear because 1) they would only be able to carry about two pounds each which would certainly help but here is where the catch is 2) their little bodies are so awkwardly shaped I’ve only ever found one harness that they can wear for long distances without any chafing so I couldn’t buy them packs because I KNOW they would chafe. Probably wouldn’t be able to find a pack small enough either.

  • @argument1582
    @argument1582 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    My boston really enjoys going out. I like the idea of larger dogs having grown up with rottweilers and Dobermans, but one thing I think should be considered about dog size is ::: can you carry the dog out if need be?
    Mags can't carry much more than her food/ water and a coat for 2 days but since she's smaller she needs less weight,and if need be I could carry her back to the vehicle.

    • @rei

    ... Great video for your 4- legged family member ,, most dog's love being out on trail ,,but not everyone likes to be approached by a dog they don't know .. Nala looks like a great hiking pal.. ....
    More gear than what I used to use but if they don't mind carrying the pack and a little weight it helps for you.... Would suggest not attaching leash to your pack or belt ,, if a slip or wildlife become present ,, you will be pulled down and unable to deal with the situation ...

I also brought elastic bandage and rubber booties which were helpful since one of the days was a little rough on one her paw pads, so we took precautions and wrapped it the day after to prevent from more wear + dirt. Also obviously tick tweezers and saline solution that you can use to rinse any wounds :) and on top of that a lot of stuff from my own first aid kit works, like compresses and dressings

    Question about backpacking on your period: I use reusable pads, and I usually just put them in with my dirty clothes and move on. In bear country, should I put them in the bear bag away from my tent? Thanks.

      Great question, Molly. Reusable pads do not need to go in a bear canister, but some people have recommended rinsing them as soon as possible.

    I have some of this same gear for my pup! I just really wish she would let me put boots on her so she could join me for more trips.

    I just got off about 100 miles of the Long Trail in Vermont with 45 lbs. hound mix. I used that sleep system you have which I purchased at REI and its fine but to be honest it's pretty heaving for a tiny bag. I use all super light gear, mostly Zpacks does anyone know of a company that makes light sleep systems for dogs and for that matter packs. All of this Rough Gear stuff is fine but on the heavy side. That tiny bag and backpack weighs more than my own. my dog loves to hike and does 20 miles a day no problem. She does not carry any of her own gear. Any advice? Take care

    Is there a dog backpack which also doubles as a life jacket?

    Those, like most booties, aren’t warm, too much cold drafts and snow get into them and a lot of dogs hate them as it feels weird and uncomfortable to them.

    This came up as a random video.. very cool, I camp but not ever with a dog. She has her own sleeping bag is that a prank?
