Dogs make excellent adventure companions. They are curious and love to explore, so having them tag along on your next hiking trip is a great way to give them the opportunity to express those natural canine instincts.

Sharing your love of the great outdoors with your four-legged buddy is a wonderful way to bond. Just make sure you have the right dog hiking gear before you set out on your adventures together. We have lots of outdoor dog gear to choose from, but there are a few dog hiking essentials that you shouldn't forget to pack, like dog backapacks, travel bowls, and some dog cooling gear.

Whether you and your doggo are hitting the trails for a day of fun or an extended getaway, you’ll want to invest in a dog hiking backpack so that your pup can help carry his own gear. The Ruffwear Front Range Dog Backpack is perfect for a casual day hike. The lightweight bag allows your dog to carry his poop bags, treats, spare leashes, and any other outdoor gear your pooch might need for your adventures.

Small dogs often get tired on the trail so you’ll want to invest in a dog carrier for hiking. They may be eager to explore, but those little legs can get tired quickly. Try a comfortable, sturdy backpack carrier like the Kurgo K9 Rucksack. This premium dog hiking backpack carrier will easily hold a pup up to 11.3 kg / 25 lbs.

Depending on the terrain of your next hiking adventure, your dog may need some durable footwear to protect his paws. Canada Pooch Boots are a water-friendly dog boot designed to protect your dogs feet from hot surfaces.

When hiking during the summer months, it's easy for dogs to overheat without the right gear and proper hydration. A cooling dog hiking vest is a great tool for keeping your dog comfortable when the weather starts to heat up. A Dog Raincoat can also come in handy and is easy to pack. You can predict the weather, but you can prepare for it.

Whether you and your pup are conquering the backcountry or taking a leisurely stroll on a local trail, the right dog hiking gear can make your adventures more fun, less stressful and safer for both you and your pup.
