SIZE AND FIT: For back length, measure from the base of neck to the base of the tail. 12 inches long = Size 12. For dogs with larger than normal chests, double check their size by measuring all the way around the dog under their front legs to their upper back for their chest girth measurement. You may need to go up or down, based on their chest girth. Reference our size chart or reach out for help.
All Hike Doggies must meet the following requirements to ensure all our doggies remain safe and have an awesome hike:
Be neutered or spayed
Be well socialized around other doggies
Be non-aggressive or reactive towards: dogs, people, wildlife & other trail users (runners, bikes, etc)
Be well mannered while hiking on a leash
Be relaxed & calm during the ride to & from the trailhead in their Zen Den (comfortable individual travel space) aboard our Hike Doggie buses
Be current on their vaccines (Rabies, Canine Influenza, Distemper, Bordetella, Leptospirosis)
Be at least 6 months old or 4 months old if leash trained
If your doggie does not meet these requirements, we recommend neutering/spaying (if you are not planning on breeding your cutie) & do targeted training in any area where he/she may need some help so they can enjoy an enriched lifestyle full of outdoor fun with friends!
