Someone answered: "Your dog probable can go with you as long as he has the right equipment for his feet, and food and water."

But there's much more to it than that. If you are talking about a dayhike, then the answer is yes, but the dog should be leashed to prevent problems with wildlife. You wouldn't want to have the dog go after a snake and be bitten, or after a porcupine and get quills in its nose.

If you're talking about backpacking a long distance, or thruhiking the Trail, then there are a LOT more considerations. The Appalachian Trail Conservancy has the answers you need on their website at: http://www.appalachiantrail.org/site/c.mqLTIYOwGlF/b.4805495/k.9C34/Hiking_with_Dogs.htm Please take a look at that.
