Written from the perspective of a small dog owner with a desire to take his dog to places traditionally reserved for larger breeds this book covers the finer details of hiking and, most importantly, care. A small dog is as capable as any larger dog and, in many ways, is more ideal for hiking.
Subjects covered include breed selection, first aid, pre-hike conditioning as well as specific topics on multi-day hiking and camping. While not the absolute authority on all things for hiking with a dog, this book encompasses most of the issues unique to small breeds. With any dog, however, it is most important to HIKE YOUR DOGS HIKE!
