Your Favorite Dog Things

[JacksonsMom]

I know we've had threads like this in the past...

but what are your favorite dog products?

Currently, I am INLOVE<3 with my biothane leash from allk-9. So buttery soft and amazing, it's already been dragged thru mud, and water, and everything else, and it always looks perfect after.

Our other go-to leash is our 5ft tan leather leash from Ella's Lead. It's SO soft and durable. I just love it, and it's our 'nice' leash.

I know it's weird to like poop bags but these are my favorite by far. Love the little thingy they come in too that clips to the leash or whatever.

We use our Jawz frisbees all the time, they last forever, and are so much more durable than any others we've bought that get chewed up.

Chuck-it! and chuck-it balls. LOVE these, it's what we do when I don't feel like taking him anywhere else so we'll just go outside on our 3 acres and play ball. It also took me forever to get him to even enjoy playing fetch and I'm so happy to now have a dog who loves to play the game.

Love these pop-up bowls for water, etc, on walks, and our Flexi lead for certain environments

I am sure I am missing some.... but what's yours?!

I am heading out, but my initial reaction to this thread is...

Premier Sure-Fit Harness!

I think every dog should have one

 

[PWCorgi]

Also, what width biothane lead do you use with Jackson?

 

[Julee]

I love my Comfortflexes ridiculous amounts. Like, you have no idea.

Also, ChuckIt stuff. Mostly ball launchers.

Aaaand anything Ruffwear.

ALSO my favorite poop bags and poop bag holder! Logan has one clipped to his harness, and I just won 6 months worth of poop bags from them! Since Logan doesn't get every single poop picked up with these (most are done in our yard and picked up with my scooper instead), they should last quite some time.

My favorite leashes are on my OnLead leashes. So soft and wonderful and they really do take a beating. I do wish they beveled the edges, but once they're broken in it doesn't really matter. I have to Euro leads - one with brass hardware and one with nickel hardware - and I use one with Logan every single day and LOVE it. I also have a show lead from them (black bullhide with a gold chain) and a slip lead (tobacco bullhide) I use at work because I hate those plastic-y leashes we have at work. I'm actually planning on getting another slip lead (since when we walk dogs we have to have 2 leashes on them) and a regular 6' lead (since the stupid cat ate mine >.<) pretty soon here.

Both dogs have custom Ella's Lead collars. Gavroche wears his all the time, Logan wears his any time he works. Both are amazing, durable, gorgeous, and just the best collars ever. Logan's isn't as broken in because he doesn't wear it all the time (and it's a different kind of leather), but it's still perfect. Gavroche's is a couple years old and still looks great. Becca is super easy to work with - I made a concept image and gave her artistic license to do with it what she thought was best, and they both came out PERFECT.

Boomerang Tags. LOVE. I have a collar tag for Gavroche, I still need to get one for Logan. Best tags ever. I do want to get some cute/fancy ones, too, but these are my #1 choice for actual ID.

Also, what width biothane lead do you use with Jackson?

I have the 1/2" width. I debated between that and 5/8" (I usually like thicker leashes- my leather one is 5/8) but the 1/2" seems perfect for his size, and it's not too thin for my hands either.

I don't know how I lived without my double-ended leashes (aka "police lead" aka "service lead") from Karma Collars. I love them so.

 

[FG167]

Chuck-It products are awesome

I <3 leather leashes of almost any kind as long as they are soft

Two other MUST HAVES in our lives:

Wubba

Gappay ball

Oh yeah, and our Gun Dog Supply Collars which everyone wears all summer long because they don't get stinky or filthy and are just perfect...And leather rolled collars with Boomerang Tags for all other times of the year

I NEED to get one of these. Just been looking for a plain-ish type collar, that I don't have to worry about switching tags onto. May order one today actually!

<3 Boomerang Collar tags as well as the Earth Rated poop bags.

My favorite dog item:
Ruffwear Singletrak Pack. I love how sleek it is. I don't need my dogs to carry a bunch of stuff, I love that it is a liter of water. I don't feel like my dogs are weighed down a whole lot.

 

[SaraB]

Boomerang tags here too! And the Gundog Supply biothane collars. <3

Easy Walk harness for the young ones, tug leash for the wise one.

Starmark clickers!

...

I love our ASAT leads from AllK-9, too. I think the 6 foot one is 5/8 inches. I also have a 12 foot one for Nosework. I think that's 1/2 inch

I am heading out, but my initial reaction to this thread is...

Premier Sure-Fit Harness!...

Me, too. Caleb has 2- one for hiking, and one for Nosework. Not that I can't use the same one for both, it's just easier for me to have one in each bag.

My other favorite dog thing is my service dog lead from J&J. It's the perfect length (5-5 1/2 feet), and oh, so soft!

ETA- forgot about the Water Boy. It's eay to carry, and I love that Caleb can drink while we're driving.

Starmark clickers!

I don't know anyone else that uses them! These have always been my favorites.

And of course the chuck it line.

Hyperflite discs

Biothane leads

bridle leather leads

FLIRT POLE!

 

[Emily]

Also totally into the Starmark clickers here too... I can use any kind but the Starmark one is def my preference!

 

[tucksmom]

Snoozer lookout carseat
Puppia harness (I love the step in varieties)
Buster cube
Rubit dog tag clip
Andis Clippers (Saves me so much to shave my own dogs down )

 

[CaliTerp07]

That's a dog product...right? Doesn't have to be refrigerated, I can squirt it straight into her mouth or into a kong, doesn't make her sick like most treats...I <3 easy cheese.

 

[ruffiangirl]

My braided leather leads from On-Lead LOVE them! They are also the service double ended ones.


Comfort flex harnesses fantastic things! Best harnesses EVAR!

My Matt Zapper brush!

Mendoda slip on leads! I love these things perfect for having in the truck for when we forget a leash, run across a stray dog, just need in case. Also have a traffic lead for gage and love it too!

 

[DJEtzel]

Kong Genius toys.

 

[Saeleofu]

I love this thing, I use it for showers at the gym with Logan. It folds up into a neat little disc and fits into my gym bag. Perfect!

 

[sassafras]

And oh god I have this back seat protector/hammock thing for my car from Orvis that has kept my back seat absolutely pristine underneath it for years despite being the dog vehicle in our household. I love that thing so much. So, so much.
