The pet industry sells you a lot of stuff. Most of it stays in a drawer. Here is what actually earns its place in your walking bag.
Need: Leash + collar (obviously)
One that fits, one that doesn't fray. Replace every 18 months.
Need: Water + portable bowl
Or one cup that does both. Don't bring a regular water bottle and assume you will figure it out.
Need: Waste bags + a way to carry them
Crammed in your pocket counts. A built-in dispenser is better.
Need: Treats (high-value)
For recall, for distractions, for the moment a squirrel appears.
Don't need:
- Fancy harnesses with 14 buckles
- Reflective vests for daytime walks
- Dog backpacks (your dog isn't a sherpa)
- Pheromone collars
- GPS trackers (unless you let them off-leash often)
- Branded poop bag holders that fall apart
