Almost all the rock steps are avoidable. I don't think she will have much trouble.

In reply to arnold666: If you mean the SE ridge (Daear Ddu) there's a path that avoids almost all the scrambling. Or you can take bits more direct if the dog's keen. It's mostly pretty easy angled (and easy) which might suit her

I would think that the bigger challenge this weekend is going to be heat. Take plenty of H2O for the little un.

In reply to arnold666: You should have no problem up DD ridge, just respect the sheep, as you will be on Rhos farms land.
Your dog should be on a lead on the initial slopes.
