Enjoy The Outdoors With Your Dog This Winter

Nov. 17, 2011 - PRLog -- ENJOY THE OUTDOORS WITH YOUR DOG THIS WINTER

With the cold, dark nights upon us and snow around the corner, we should all be thinking about how to keep our dogs warm, comfortable and seen this winter.

As you’re pulling on your North Face or Berghaus jacket, then why not make sure your dog has the equivalent insulated jacket. Or as you’re pulling on your walking boots or Wellington boots to keep your feet warm and dry then, give your dog the same comfort with special outdoor boots. And if you want to make sure your dog can be seen easily then the Beacon is the idea safety light.

Ruff Wear Wear has a range of performance dog gear, so your canine companion can join in the outdoor fun, no matter the weather.

The Beacon™ RRP: £16.95 Intended for use in low-light or high traffic areas, the Beacon is a high intensity LED that can be attached to any collar or harness. With a variety of settings to choose from, the Beacon’s flash frequency is easily altered meaning it can also be used by runners, hikers and cyclists.

Ruff Wear’s Quinzee™Jacket: RRP: £79.95: Water-resistant and synthetically insulated the Quinzee Jacket is guaranteed to lock in warmth this winter.

The K9 overcoat™ RRP: £59.95: This is Ruff Wear’s most durable coat to date, the K9 is ideal for any outdoor activity. With an insulated fleece lining in a hardwearing polyester shell, the K9 Overcoat is designed to keep the elements out. Retaining body heat and repelling the cold.

Bark n Boots Grip Trex dog boots  RRP: £70  These set the standard in paw wear for dogs who walk, hike, bike, run, or explore the great outdoors with their humans.

Dog boots can prevent a variety of injuries from the surfaces we walk and run on, on the trail or in urban environments. Trail running, shooting and walking is hard feet and paws alike—rocks, roots, mud, snow, or ice can be torturous. Generally, dogs’ paws become conditioned to run on familiar surfaces after a few weeks, but new terrain and changing environmental conditions can cause stone bruising, cuts, and blistered pads.

Ruff Wear also produce a range of leashes, collars, harnesses, backpacks and bedding designed for you to enjoy the outdoors with your dog. These include:

The Hoopie Collar - The classic styling of this collar makes it sleek enough for city streets and tough enough for the backcountry. Made from strong tubular webbing, it features an airlock buckle for safety and a separate ID attachment point to reduce ‘tag jingle’. Priced at £16. Available in four solid colours and four patterns.

The Roamer Leash - Let your doggies roam with the Roamer Leash. This leash has an elastic core that extends, allowing you to maintain control while your canine companion enjoys a generous range of movement.  Ruff Wear's exclusive Talon Clip™ is strong, secure and ergonomically designed for one-handed clip in! This leash is ideal for trail running when worn around the waist. Priced at £32
