How does the Camino del Norte compare to the Frances route? I haven't officially chosen a route yet as I am still investigating. This route seems scenically very beautiful and because I live by the sea, I will enjoy the ocean. Am sure my dog Dakota would prefer this route... perhaps the Camino...
Once i completed my camino ill post a list of dog friendly places and camping sites along the route. Enjoy your caminos!
By the way, Jan Fennell is a woman (not a man!). She lives in the UK and is known for her "Amichien bonding" technique, a dog friendly method of bonding and training based...
Deborah,
I'm sorry to hear you had such nasty experience with dogs. By the sounds of it, the dogs you encountered had a lack of training and believed they were the alpha members of their human pack and displayed uncontrollable behaviour.
Have you read up on huskies? They are bred as...
Dakota sends hug back!
Here she is:

I was also thinking of October - just after the summer heats. Any advice is very welcome! If I use camping sites, I can probably rest for a day...
Thanks indeed! I'll find out about quarantine. I know the dog must have a vet certificate with all innoculations and a blood test to prove its healthy and free of any disease. (Which Dakota certainly is :D ).
But I'll check about quarantine laws though.
A friend of mine imported a malamute...
Hi,
Thanks indeed for your post! Yes, my husky is my 'child' and I can't imagine doing the camino without her. She hikes with me everywhere! Her name is Dakota and she's black and white in colour.
Camping is definately an option - I just thought the safety aspect might be a problem? If...
Thanks for the response. 33 deg will definately be much too warm.
Perhaps I'll go during March rather and I'll use Guesthouses. I can always enquire where I can stay with my dog before I go and plan my route like that?
I don't think all dogs can walk the camino. But I am quite confident...
Has anyone had experience with doing the camino with a husky/malamute? What would be the best time to go if I take my husky with me? Summer will be out because of heat, so I'm thinking of doing it just before winter.
wow.. I didn't even think of a caddy cart... thanks so much for this info. I will research Pamplona.
I want to walk the camino on my own.
I would like to do it during Spring season I think... March/April/May.
Hi :)
I would like to walk the Camino Frances, but I am concerned about my sports injuries. I had a knee injury and a mild spine injury from ice hockey four years ago. How can I test my knee and spine for fitness? For the past 6 months I have been walking 5km a day (I walk to work and back...
