cole replylemdro.id1Hide 1 replythanks! I've thought about backpacking with a big dog but that would be a lot of food weight. maybe need to get the dog a backpack too lol2
ssimbico replylemmy.zipFor sure. I only did an overnighter backpacking with him, his food and extra water and gear was at least an extra 2 kg weight. If you give them a vest, make sure that you increase the load gradually (and send photos!)2

Yes, pre-portioned kibble and some occasional leftovers

Did they get in the canoe though?
Yup, we did multiple trips with him
