Dogs in the BC?

I know a lot of parks won't let dogs there, but when you can, how do you think a a basset hound would fare in snow while skiing? I'm a bit concerened of the short legs they have.

Anyone ever took one out to a TC Ski trip?

Tie his ears up so he doesn't get frost bit ears..... Basset hound....mmmmh not sure.
I was out touring this weekend with my Siberian and a friends Golden Retriever. Retriever got all snow balled and chaffed his legs and we had to turn around as a result ( but still had fun).
Lot of people tour Crystal area ( Bullion Basin, etc) with dogs.
Probably be alright once snow consolidates.

Thanks for reply scots, I probalby won't be touring until mid may after the movers come with my gear and I'm fully settled in with new job and all. But I do look forward to getting out with you guys and learning and taking some classes!

I remember being at the beach when I was around four or five years old. The was a very odd track in the sand. Paw prints, but it looked like it was dragging something. It was a basset hound, and he was dragging something......

Make sure it's not just the ears you tie up.

Lots of good info:

Wait till about 25 seconds, it's priceless to see what looks to be a dog doing a butterfly swim technique in snow.
