| He maybe little but he's fast As not just the owner of a miniature yorkie but also a mad Springer i was wondering as they both like to go for walks together is 6-7 miles a day too far for a 9 month Yorkie? Everytime i attempt to put Williams leash on Noah is there immediately yapping the " CAN I COME DAD" yap. I just don't want to wear his little legs out!!!!! Ian |

| I guess it would depend on how big he is and how much stamina he has. If you want to take him, bring water, and be prepared to carry him JIC. Maybe you could get a puppy pouch (http://www.petco.com/product_info.as...9&dept_id=%2D2) that straps to your back or in the front of you and put him in there if he gets worn out. Hope you figure something out! |

| Simon is a walker! I've taken him on 5-6 mile hikes and he never stops except to drink water! He is alwasy exhausted a few days after but he loves it! Hallie I have to carry most of the way! Can you try him out with shorter walks and work your way up to the full 6 miles? That might give you an indicator of how far he is willing to go. |

| I have to agree, start out slowly, and add a little time as you go along. Bring plenty of water. |

| Ooops sorry Noah's 2-3 walks add up to about 6-7 miles so does that sound ok? Ian |
