Welcome to Barkpacker!
The goal of Barkpacker is to build resources and gather helpful information on how to travel safely and successfully with your dog.
Our latest efforts are in making free, physical maps of pet friendly businesses, starting with Hood River, Oregon. See our first map here.
PS: Barkpacking is more than just having a companion to travel with. It's important to understand that many sacrifices and compromises will have to be made when taking a dog with you. This is a trip for you and your pup equally and should be planned and carried out accordingly.

The Last Thing You'd Expect When Traveling With Your Dog

The hardest part of traveling with another person for a long period of time is the eventuality of getting really sick of each other. Believe it or not, this can happen when you're traveling with a dog too. I feel it. I know Olive feels it. |

"I created Barkpacker because after nearly 4 months of traveling by myself, the hardest part was being away from my Olive. I found that there were little to no online resources that gave me solid information about traveling abroad with a dog. I want more people to know it's possible to take their fur babies on an international adventure by providing any and all information I had to dig deep for. I also wanted to create a community of people and their dogs around the world to collect insights, share stories and maybe someday travel together!" |
