One of my new year's resolutions is to get myself into better shape and to prepare/plan for a backpacking trip with one of two of my dogs... Something I've been wanting to do forever!

We are looking into either the Oregon coast or Montana(though that will be iffy since we have to drive).

Anywho, anyone ever been and have any advise or any good books/website links for doing this with dog/s? Right now I'm in the planning stages so just trying to gather as much info as possible so anything would be greatly appreciated!

Too bad they don't allow dogs in national parks, Yosemite or Glacier National park would be amazing!
