We love our adventures and they wouldn’t be complete with our faithful, hairy friends….yup, we’re talking about our dogs. Our boy has been a lifesaver during lockdown.

 

Here are some of our doggie essentials…..

 

 

What dog doesn’t like getting dirty? These Dog Robes from LifeVenture, Mountain Paws are made using a highly absorbent microfibre material which dries remarkably quickly. The velcro stops wriggly dogs from shaking off the towel and wraps them up to keep your dog nice and warm.

 

 

 

 

 

No one likes the idea of a dog sustaining an injury, especially while out on a long adventure where injuries need to be treated until you can reach a vet. Mountain Paws have developed a compact water-resistant Dog First Aid Kit to treat common injuries. It includes paw sleeves to protect any dressings or wounds, saline solutions for washing out wounds/eyes and even a thermal blanket just in case you need to keep your dog warm.

 

 

We’ve all been there…out for a lovely bimble with your hound when…horrors! They’ve found the only patch of fox poo there is for miles around, and doesn’t it smell attractive….?

We stock a no water, towel off dog shampoo especially for this! Just rub into the fur, lather up and clean off with a towel, clean and fresh smelling hound!

We have two varieties, one specially for the fox poo situation and one for general dirt. Packs of wipes are also available.

 

Watch the video to see how easy it is to use.

A useful tip…if dealing with the poo situation, best to use gloves and pull off any lumps of mess first and then apply the liquid.

The DOOHICKEY PET TOOL…this four-in-one tool is a very useful addition to your dog’s collar.

Includes useful items as a nail file, a burr comb and a tick remover, a handy way to make sure that you’re ready for a range of canine eventualities on a walk or holiday. If it’s been a long day, there’s also a bottle opener integrated into the tool, and its locking carabiner is sturdy and secure.


So we are all used to cleaning up after our dogs after they’ve pooped….and don’t the hounds decide to poop right at the start of a walk, which means we end up carrying knotted bags of smellypoop all the way!

 How about this solution….

 

The DICKY BAG 

is an award winning stylish neoprene bag that’s lightweight, airtight, washable and leak proof which can be attached to you or your dog and stores those nasty knotted plastic bags until you find a suitable bin. British invention, Patented design & Hand Made in Cornwall, The Dicky Bag is robust (original prototypes still going after 5 years). No more embarrassing moments, nasty niffs or disgusted looks; with The Dicky Bag poop bags are out of sight and out of mind. Dicky Bag, the civilised way to carry dog poop!

 

 

This unique patented dog poop scoop design consists of a storage and dispensing area for clean bags and an airtight container for storing the full bags until to reach a bin the bespoke air freshener masks any foul smells.
