The Hurtta Summit Parka is the first Hurtta America product that we have ever owned and after our wonderful experience we will never hesitate to spend the extra money again as it has more than proved that you get what you pay for. We used this parka in very cold and snowy environments, during snow […]

The WOOFgang Shop Paws & Go Balm
The wild winds blow, flakes swirl and fall from the heavens, ice cracks, melts, refreezes and the cold sets in deep into our bones. The Canadian winter is a force to be reckoned with. As humans we find ourselves dousing our bodies with gallons of lotion and body butter to offset the cold dry air. […]
As bowls go, durability is a top priority for anyone with a dog, and depending on your needs, a nice, solid bowl for your home is ideal. The Wild Hound Outfitters Colors of the Earth Bowl speaks for itself. Hand crafted one-by-one in a small pottery shop in Ohio, these bowls boast a beautiful speckled […]
Hurtta Trail Pack
The Hurtta Trail Pack received from Hurtta America is advertised as highly adjustable, multi-functional pack with emphasis placed on comfortable fit for the dog and large, detachable saddlebags. In our opinion, this pack does not disappoint on any of its advertised features. It has quickly become the most regular piece of equipment in our adventure repertoire. […]
Docooler Pet Backpack
If you find yourself on the trails with your pooch more often than on the couch you’ve probably considered purchasing a dog pack yourself. Dog packs are a great piece of gear that many active dog owners have. Besides the added bonus of more space to store your trail necessities, the extra weight in the […]

Alcott Essential Adventure Leash
Xena hikes off leash when we adventure together but I always carry a leash with me in case we run in to other hikers and dogs on the trail. I was actually looking for a new everyday leash that is water-resistant when Dogs That Hike sent us Alcott Essential Adventure Leash to test. Perfect timing! […]
Having had great experiences with Helios’ products for humans, we were quite excited to be able to test out a dog bed made by them and were hoping it would live up to the high standards we had for it. While the product isn’t terrible, it was definitely a little disappointing. The bed’s main advertising […]
P.L.A.Y. Deluxe Training Pouch
When we’re not exploring the forests, and climbing the mountains, we’re training! And a key component to our training is having a reliable pouch to carry all those tasty treats in, without having to fumble around trying to open it, or having all your treats fall out if you bend over. And let’s not forget […]
Head-Lites Low Beams Collar
Normally, LED gear is a compromise and I often forego it, only to regret it when we get caught out after dark: our Alcott LED collar can’t be used with a leash, our dim eBay LED collars look too cheap to wear during the day, and clip on lights jangle around. Head-Lites are no-compromise LED wear. As standalone collars, they’re already […]
