I am new to the forum. I am not new to enquiring about taking my dog on the Camino. Please do not offer me advice/opinion in that regard.
I intend to walk shortly after Easter 2022 with my girlfriend and ............. our dog. She is a Vizsla and will be 2 years next April. We are already walking 5 to 8 kms most days so in 14 months 10 to 20 kms will not be a problem.
We are not in a hurry and will spend 2/3 nights in some places. Currently I am looking at 58 nights. We will make use of both Correos and luggage forwarding services. On the Camino, she (her name is Guapa), will eat around 20kgs of food so the logistics of getting that to strategic destinations is one of my challenges.
My main challenge is dog friendly accommodation. We will be using hotels - not alburgues.
Does anybody here have experience walking with a dog? I am happy to receive your positive suggestions. Not about whether I should/shouldn't, but suggestions of accommodations; hints and tips relating to walking with a dog; experiences of luggage forwarders, towns that are worthy of more than one night (and why). It is tempting to put Burgos/Pamplona/Leon as multiple night cities, but we have already been to them on other occasions.
If you got this far .......... thanks for persevering. A reminder - I don't need opinion/advice on whether or not to take her. Just accommodations/places of note. I have posted an image of Guapa ......... isn't she gorgeous?
Thank you.
