I have a 17 week old puppy who's a german shepherd mixed with "wonder dog" (you wonder what the heck he is) that I got from the humane society. He weighs 35 lbs. The vet cleared him to jog with me for 30 minutes a day and we also go for 2 or 3 10 minute walks every day. I am a slow jogger so our 30 minute jog is just over two miles.
I just joined a hiking club that is going for a 5.8 mile dog-friendly hike on the coast this weekend. It is supposed to take 3-4 hours with a lunch break. Is my dog still too young to come with me or can he join in the fun?
He does have his full set of vaccinations (completed last week) and he is neutered. From what people are saying he wouldn't have fun and that would be the whole point of bringing him. He definately LOVES our vet approved jogs though.
