There is nothing like mountains

Dashy was always motivated for a hike in the mountains, even when he was healing from his eye problems. We take him often to hikes that may take 2 hours or two days. We believe that the key is to always watch for signs of exhaustion or discomfort.

You may be surprise to reaize how much small dogs can endure, as long as they are used to the effort and the environment.
