Why Take a Hike?
Hiking is a fantastic way to bond with your dog while reaping the health benefits of fresh air and exercise. It’s also a chance to let your pup explore new sights, smells, and sounds. Whether it’s a forest trail, a mountain path, or a local park, every hike can be a pawsome experience!

Gear Up for the Trails
🐾Before you head out, make sure you and your pup are trail-ready with these essentials:
🐾Sturdy Leash or Harness: Ensure your dog is comfortable and secure for the hike.
🐾Collapsible Water Bowl: Keep your pup hydrated on the go.
🐾Trail Treats: Bring some of our signature Four Paws Place treats to energize your dog.
🐾Paw Protection: Consider booties or a paw balm for rough terrain to protect your dog’s paws.
🐾Waste Bags: Leave no trace—always clean up after your pet.

Trail Tips for a Safe and Fun Hike
🐾Check the Rules: Some trails have restrictions or leash requirements.
🐾Start Small: If your dog is new to hiking, begin with shorter, easier trails.
🐾Watch for Signs of Fatigue: Take breaks if your pup seems tired or overheated.
🐾Stay on the Trail: Protect wildlife and avoid hazards by sticking to designated paths.
