A: Some dog breeds hike farther, faster and harder than others. Ultimately our speed and distance is determined by the pack. Some packs will hike faster/further than others.
Another factor is the weather. Most dogs slow down in hot weather, but we will also lower the intensity during the warmer summer months.
We do require that all dogs joining the group must be able to maintain a 2.5 - 4 mph pace.
A: We accept Visa, MasterCard and Discover Card.
A: Most breeds are well suited for hiking in the foothills of Denver. However each individual dog and breed will have different abilities. Your vet will be able to give you the best advice.
A: In general, 8 months or older is an appropriate age to begin hiking for 4 - 6 miles. Your vet will be able to help you determine if a long hike is appropriate for your dog's age and breed.
A: As a dog ages, exercise tolerance and requirements will change. Your veterinarian will want to perform a complete physical exam on your pet and discuss exercises that are appropriate.
If a long hike is too much for your dog, our sister company,
Denver Dog Joggers, does offer lower intensity services, such as fast paced walking and leisurely walking.
