I used to hike frequently with mine, and considered getting them backpacks so they could haul some of their own water. However, when I did research, the recommendation was not to give them more than 10% of their weight to carry, which would be less than 2 lbs each for my girls. I decided I could carry that 3.5 pounds of water myself quite easily.
So I don't have any recommendations, but if all he is carrying is mail, I think any of them would be fine.
Dog sitter/walker in Portland, OR, area?
-
I may be going on vacation for a couple weeks at the end of October and am looking for a good dog walker/sitter to come in for about an hour during the weekdays. My husband will be around, but he works a long day, and we don't have a dog door.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions! Thanks!

Have you called your vet and asked for a pet referal re this service? That would be the first place I would ask.

Yes, I already have a message in with my vet's office, but I figured I would have more of a chance to find a basenji-crazed sitter in the forums!
