Let's go for a walk.
Beyond (most) leashes and collars...great products for walks (and travel!) with your furkids, probably not found at your big box pet stores.
Scoopies Oxo-Biodegradable Poop Bags
These white mitt-shaped (and let's just say, these are big enough to fit over a winter-gloved hand!) poop bags are great! They will handle a large doody pile (if you have a big dog, you know this is an unfortunate issue with some other biodegradable poop bags) and will 100% biodegrade into H2O and CO2 in about 18months. For one week, monitor the volume of waste from your dog/s. It's somewhat appalling. Even worse is looking at all of it headed for the landfill, encased in plastic...in perpetuity. It's easy. It's affordable. Don't do it because it received Modern Dog's Spring 2008 Staff Pick Product Award. Do it because it's the right thing to do...with the poo.
Approx. 7" X 17.5" (10.5" wide with thumb). 30 bags per box.
The box can loop onto your leash or, since it's about the size of a soap box, it will easily fit into your handbag. Each bag is individually folded and easily dispensed.
Gulpy water dispenser
This is the best on the go water dispenser we've used. Others we've tried are not a one-handed operation, but this one truely is. We use it one-handed on walks, in the car, and anywhere else we need a quick, convenient way to dispense water for your pup. There's no need to snap the tray onto the bottle; just grab the edge of the tray and easily pull it open. Fold up travel water dishes are nice for the beach or on a longer potty and exercise break while travelling, but there are times we need something more portable. This fits the bill perfectly.
Here are some of our favorite features: 1) It's easy to use! Just flip it open, effortlessly squeeze the bottle, and water fills the tray. 2) The lightweight bottle nests in the water tray when not in use; bottle will not leak when locked in the tray. 3) There is a belt clip on the back of the bottle. 4) It fits a standard water bottle holder on bikes! 5) It has a generous 20 oz. capacity. 6) In a pinch, for more water, the screw cap water tray fits most standard bottled water bottles!
The only drawback we can find is that the Gulpy's water tray is made of hard plastic (though, similar products are also made of the same hard plastic) and dropping it from a few feet could cause breakage. That being said, the Gulpy kicks all other like products' butt! Assorted colors: yellow, light blue and mint green. Allow us to choose for you.
