Planet Dog Natural Hemp Collars and Leashes

New at Backcountry K-9 - Planet Dog Hemp Collars and Leashes.

The Planet Dog eco-friendly hemp dog collar is naturally dyed pure hemp - one of nature's strongest fabrics. It’s made with a nylon-reinforced plastic quick-release buckle for extra durability. You’ll find the Natural Hemp Adjustable Dog Collar will stand up to the more rigorous salt-water swims, mud puddle baths, snowy romps and the occasional roll in the sand.

The matching Planet Dog Hemp Leash creates an incredibly strong hold. The fleece-lined handle gives you extra protection.

Both the collar and leash are machine washable.

Gulpy - A Water Bottle for Your Dog

New at Backcountry K-9 is Gulpy - an ingenious water bottle for your dog.

Gulpy's fold out tray lets your thirsty dog lap it up.

Gulpy is leak-proof, has a belt clip on the back, and will fit standard water bottle cages on your bike.

Gulpy comes in assorted colors and is available from Backcountry K-9 for only $6.99.

...joring

A lot of talk today on the Yahoo Trail Dog List around the art(s) of skijoring, skatejoring, scooterjoring, etc.  I keep seeing this pop up more and more recently.  It sounds like a fun way to get your dog (and maybe you) some good exercise.

The basics are - get your dog a padded harness, a stretchy type lead, and some type of transportation for you (a bike, skis, inline skates, scooter, skateboard - basically something with wheels).

Hook the leash to you or the bike and go!

Now, how do you tell your dog to turn?

Check out the Ruff Wear Web Master Harness and Roamer Leash to get started.
