It’s just as likely while hiking a trail that your fellow hikers will have four legs as two, and while it’s easy to find trail mix filled with nuts and raisins and all kinds of good stuff for you, there aren’t quite as many options for your canine companions. You could go with dog biscuits, but they don’t always have the nutrition for a long trek, and on big journeys, a 25-pound bag of dog food is going to bring everyone down. Enter PeakWaggers, a Nederland company that makes all-natural, dehydrated foods with no preservatives or sodium. The vacuum-sealed meals are high in the right kinds of fats, protein and fiber, and all you have to do is add 8-10 ounces of warm, hot or cold water to rehydrate in about 10-15 minutes. It’s hard to imagine a dog turning down any food, but we swear our chow-German shepherd mix Flannery thought the Dog-Gone Cottage Pie Entrée was especially tasty. Each package contains two meals, weighs 10 ounces dry and feeds a 60- to 110-pound pooch. Five flavors, and they just added snacks. | $6.50-$8.95,
