Free dog hiking tools
Three tools that run inside your browser. Nothing you type is sent anywhere, and each one prints onto a single page.
Dog Hiking Packing Checklist
A checklist that changes with the trip: day walk or overnight, warm or cold. It also works out the 15% of bodyweight your dog can safely carry.
Canine Trail Hydration Calculator
Works out how much water your dog needs per hour, how to split it between you, and when the heat makes a walk a bad idea. The numbers come from published veterinary work on metabolism and heat regulation.
Dog Emergency Trail ID Card
Makes two wallet cards and a sheet for the car, so whoever finds your dog knows who to call if you get separated.
Why not just a PDF?
Most free dog hiking resources hand you a forty-item PDF and you ignore two thirds of it. These work differently.
They adapt
The checklist drops the overnight gear when you are out for two hours, and the ID card leaves out the fields you did not fill in instead of printing blank lines.
They print properly
The print styles strip out the menu, the buttons and the header, so what comes out of the printer is a clean sheet for your pack or your dashboard.
The limits come from somewhere
The safety numbers follow published veterinary guidance, such as the 15% of bodyweight ceiling for a pack, rather than a figure somebody guessed.
Common questions
Are these really free?
Yes. No account, no email, no trial, no paid version. They exist so people hike with their dogs more safely.
Do I have to give an email address?
No. Every tool works straight away without any personal information. You can join the list that announces new guides if you want to, but no tool is hidden behind it.
Is anything I type saved or sent anywhere?
No. The tools run entirely in your browser. Nothing reaches our servers, and when you close the tab what you typed is gone.
Can I use and print them from a phone?
Yes. They are built for a phone first. The print button in Safari on iOS or Chrome on Android opens the normal system print or save-as-PDF, already formatted to one sheet.
