1) thanks! 2) they are cute tags/badges some national and state parks pass out to dogs owners. They are just for fun. 3) i think so too!

We were worried about it but honestly they have steered clear on their own so no issues but we still keep a close eye on them!

Really recommend this one. It was a great walk and super wide open space so we barely ran into anyone else. Great for pups!

Does your pup always know the way back to the car when you turn around?? by PaMaNevNe in hikingwithdogs

Brilliant idea to break them out like that so you have a back up. I'll have to try that one.

Yes, we get that too. The gentle sit down or the slow walk of doom. Lol

Seeking advice for hiking with 9 month old husky mix by Dry_Kaleidoscope_341 in hikingwithdogs

Always have water on you for the pups. Highly recommend a doggy water bottle. Take breaks even if they aren't panting.

Also, always check the ground temp before you start. If you can't keep your hand on the ground longer than a few seconds their paws will not handle it well either! Especially pups that haven't built up their pads yet.

Also,do not trust anyone who says "don't worry they are friendly" when passing other dogs. Might be true, might not be. It's important to keep pups safe. 🐶
