Salt and Pepper hiking dogs

I took my dogs hiking in Millcreek canyon today to Dog Lake. It is a three mile hike each direction and I was pretty worried about taking a 14-year-old and a 7-month-old dog on a long hike like that. Caesar just came alive!!! He cruised up and didn't really look like he was feeling anything until the last 1/4 mile that is all up hill. Toby did a great job too and his whole 5 pound frame managed to get him up and back with only being carried for about a mile total!!!!! I was so proud of them, though we all came back pretty filthy!! It was a pack shower and I was the only member of the pack who likes to shower. LOLOL
