Our friends at Ruffwear talk us through different types of dog-friendly adventures and offer their expertise to help you have a great day out with your dog. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"images-with-captions\">\n    <div class=\"image-with-caption\">\n        \n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/uploads\/images\/2018champs\/Blog%20imagery\/dog_adventures_6.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\">\n        \n        <p>Photo: @Ruffwear<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hiking\">Hiking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Extend your local dog walk by venturing further afield and hitting the trails. Your dog has evolved over millennia to cover huge distances across the wild \u2013 just like you. So, there\u2019s no reason your dog can\u2019t accompany you on a longer hike such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/guides\/10-of-the-best-places-on-the-pennine-way\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pennine Way.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When introducing your dog to any activity it\u2019s best to build up their endurance. Start slowly, especially when introducing rough and steep terrain, and allow plenty of time for rest stops. Even if your dog is used to long hikes a change in the weather can make it harder, and even dangerous in very hot or very cold conditions. If your dog is more used to smooth pavements than rocky paths it can take time to toughen up their paws. Dog boots are a great option to protect paws from rough terrain and extremes of temperatures. It&#8217;s worth giving your dog a check over for ticks and other pests when you get home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"blog-buttons\">\n    <a class=\"btn\" href=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/guides\/10-best-dog-walks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10 best dog walks <i class=\"fa fa-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"images-with-captions\">\n    <figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/uploads\/images\/2018champs\/Blog%20imagery\/dog_adventures_1.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"dog-friendly adventures&nbsp;\"><\/figure><div class=\"image-with-caption\">\n        \n        \n        \n        <p><\/p>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Some routes will require your dog to be on <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.osmaps.com\/roamer-lead\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a lead<\/a> at all times, others may have seasonal rules to protect livestock and wildlife such as ground nesting birds. Your dog should always be within eye and ear shot and you should always leave no trace when out and about. If you are planning to let your dog explore off leash you should make sure they respond to key commands, especially when it comes to recall. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a day hiking, there&#8217;s nothing better than a well-earned visit to a county pub! Most happily welcome dogs but it&#8217;s best to check first. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"tip\">\n\t<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/img\/exclamation-mark.svg\" alt=\"\"><\/figure><div class=\"tip-exclamation\">\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\t<h4>\u200bWhat to carry<\/h4>\n\t<p>For longer hikes you\u2019ll need dog food, plenty of water, a collapsible water bowl (so you don\u2019t have to share!), a short leash and poop bags. Optional extras include: dog boots and liners, dog pack, safety light and a towelfor muddy paws. <br><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-camping\">Camping <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our four-legged friends make the perfect camping companion and once you have a plan, camping with your dog is relatively hassle-free. Our dog&#8217;s basic needs are not too different than our own: food, water, warmth, a place to rest, and first aid supplies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At camp, keep your four-legged friend on leash and within your control. Trying to keep an eye on a roaming dog while setting up camp, building a campfire, or eating dinner can be tricky! If your camping buddy has a lot to say or loves to let out a good howl at the moon, consider camping at a more secluded location. What\u2019s music to our ears might be less than ideal for other&#8217;s wilderness experience. When in doubt, err on the side of courtesy.<span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"blog-buttons\">\n    <a class=\"btn\" href=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/guides\/beginners-guide-to-camping\/\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Beginner&#8217;s guide to camping  <i class=\"fa fa-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"images-with-captions\">\n    <div class=\"image-with-caption\">\n        \n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/uploads\/images\/2018champs\/Blog%20imagery\/dog_adventures_camping2.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"dog camping\">\n        \n        <p>Photo: @Ruffwear<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking your dog camping for the first time is exciting, but it might feel a little daunting. Do your best to prepare ahead of time and have a back-up plan. Beyond that, a little patience and sense of humour will help. Not all dogs take to sleeping in a tent (or going in and out of tent doors) right away, but with practice, they will get the hang of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"tip\">\n\t<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/img\/exclamation-mark.svg\" alt=\"\"><\/figure><div class=\"tip-exclamation\">\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\t<h4>Get some well-earned rest<\/h4>\n\t<p>If you\u2019re serious about sleeping, create a space for your dog in your tent\u2019s porch and not inside. >Doggie sleeping bags ensure a great night sleep.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-mountain-biking\">Mountain Biking <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The most important tip of all is to slowly get your dog used to longer rides, faster paces, and longer, fast down hill stretches of trails. Like with hiking, allow your dog&#8217;s paws to toughen up by starting out on semi-smooth dirt tracks before working your way up to rougher and rockier terrain. Keeping up with a bike is hard work so ensure your dog has enough water. Every time you are thirsty and take a drink your dog probably is too. For dogs that are active, diets high in good quality fats are key. Feed your dog after the activity as feeding before running can cause diarrhoea and is rough on their digestion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"images-with-captions\">\n    <div class=\"image-with-caption\">\n        \n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/uploads\/images\/2018champs\/Blog%20imagery\/dog_adventures_MTB.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"dog friendly mountain biking\">\n        \n        <p>Photo: @Ruffwear<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Some dogs aren&#8217;t sure how to behave around bike or may have forgotten, so teach your dogs the do&#8217;s and don&#8217;ts before heading out on a bigger bike adventure. Try to teach your pooch to stay behind the bike at all times. This protects them from downhill traffic and protects other riders from potential crashes out of trying to avoid a dog in the middle of the path. Slowly riding with your dog leashed, and correcting along the way is the easiest way to do this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"tip\">\n\t<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/img\/exclamation-mark.svg\" alt=\"\"><\/figure><div class=\"tip-exclamation\">\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\t<h4>A simple command <\/h4>\n\t<p>When other people approach, a simple command, \u201coff the trail\u201d can be used so your dog knows that it\u2019s time to get off the path and them pass. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"images-with-captions\">\n    <div class=\"image-with-caption\">\n        \n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/uploads\/images\/2018champs\/Blog%20imagery\/dog_adventures_MTB2.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"hand biking dog&nbsp;\">\n        \n        <p>Photo: @Ruffwear<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-swimming\">Swimming<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Swimming in nature is invigorating, re-energising and one of the most popular ways to reconnect with the great outdoors. Dogs also love a paddle so why not take your dog to your nearest beach, lake or river (where swimming is permitted) and enjoy a friendly splash. Choose your swimming spot wisely and make sure you&#8217;re not getting in anyone&#8217;s way.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"blog-buttons\">\n    <a class=\"btn\" href=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/guides\/a-beginners-guide-to-wild-swimming\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A beginner&#8217;s guide to wild swimming  <i class=\"fa fa-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"images-with-captions\">\n    <div class=\"image-with-caption\">\n        \n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/uploads\/images\/2018champs\/Blog%20imagery\/dog_adventures_Swimming.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"swimming dog\">\n        \n        <p>Photo: @Ruffwear<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Some dogs can be water-shy so start them off with a paddle before taking them for a full dip. If your dog is less-confident in the water, swim where it is shallow and without a current. Some dogs can be water-shy so start them off with a paddle before taking them for a full dip. It may also be worth investing in a doggie life-jacket to keep them safe. Finally, be careful not to allow your dog to swim too close as dogs\u2019 claws are sharp. You could consider wearing an old wetsuit to prevent any accidental scratches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"tip\">\n\t<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/img\/exclamation-mark.svg\" alt=\"\"><\/figure><div class=\"tip-exclamation\">\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\t<h4>Pack the essentials <\/h4>\n\t<p>Always pack a towel to dry your dog off.

Especially now many organised runs like Park Run allow well-behaved dogs. Unlike your evening jog where your pooch is doing his own thing, CaniCross requires that you work together. Dogs are harnessed and lead the way, attached by an <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.osmaps.com\/mountain-paws-shock-absorber-dog-lead\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">elastic leash<\/a> to the runner, who drives the dog with voice commands.

Since then the sport has developed into a recreational and competitive sport. There are now many CaniCross events taking place across Britain.

The only skill required of your dog is an ability to sit still, which gets incrementally more important the bigger your dog. The more your dog moves about, the less stable you are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"blog-buttons\">\n    <a class=\"btn\" href=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/guides\/beginners-guide-to-stand-up-paddleboarding\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Beginner&#8217;s guide to SUP <i class=\"fa fa-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"images-with-captions\">\n    <div class=\"image-with-caption\">\n        \n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/uploads\/images\/2018champs\/Blog%20imagery\/dog_adventures_SUP2.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"dog friendly paddle boarding\">\n        \n        <p>Photo: @Ruffwear<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As with swimming, be considerate to others in the water and make sure your dog can follow basic commands.
