Useful Resurce To Check Out

I have asked before about getting a medium sized dog to be my hiking companion, but it seems all of the breeds are slighlty to large for my living situation. So now I rephrase my question. Are there any small dog breeds that have enough energy and endurance to withstand heavy hiking? It would also be nice to hike with dog off leash.

  Well with out knowing your living situation and how extreme the hikes are it’s hard to say for sure.

  I have a doxie in great health and shape. She does 10 mile hikes through the mountains. She hikes of leash at places that allow. I have also heard most terriers (jack russel, fox, etc) will be able to hike with you as well. Going a little larger(not sure what’s too big for you) basenjis, border collies, shiba inus, and almost any hound will also be good.

  If you post more about your lifestyle and requirements we could help narrow it down for you.
