The outdoor training season is here!
Training with the dog outside is important to teach proper social skills and make sure he or she listens well to commands. When you’re outside, the distractions are much greater for the dog and for you. Therefore, it is important to be able to focus your full attention on the exercises you do with your dog. The right accessories can help with that. NOHO agency shares a top four accessories to help you train your dog.
1. Click ‘n treat
When you’re training outdoor, you can’t walk empty-handed. Ideally, you want to have a supply of dog treats with you, but at the same time keep your hands free. That’s why EQDOG‘s Click ‘n Treat (left image) is ideal. This dog treat bag can be opened with one hand and has an extra large opening so you can grab a treat super fast. The Click ‘Treat has a removable treat pouch that is 100 percent water resistant. So you can easily clean it after each training session. The length-adjustable leash easily attaches and detaches with the snap buckle and has a maximum length of 145 cm. This allows you to wear the Click ‘n Treat around your hip or over the shoulder.
2. Bandee: pouch+
Need more storage space? Then opt for the Bandee: pouch+ (right image) from Bandee by Owney. This ergonomic waist bag has enough room for poop bags, treats for the dog as well as for you, your cell phone, wallet and a bottle of water. Like the Click ‘n Treat, the Bandee pouch+ is easy to open and equipped with a removable insert pocket where you can store dog treats. The Bandee: pouch+ has extra loops to which you can attach leashes and carabiners and is available in four different sizes:
- Small 81 – 89 cm
- Medium 90 – 98 cm
- Large 99 – 106 cm
- XLarge 107 -120 cm
3. Dog Sport Vest
Owney Outdoor makes outdoor apparel specifically for dog lovers, including several (softshell and fleece) intermediate jackets and body warmers that are ideal during the outdoor training season. The Dog Sport Vest (left image) is specifically designed for outdoor training and equipped with six front pockets, one large dummy back pocket, an additional zippered back tunnel pocket, two D-rings for attaching further equipment, and mesh inserts on the back for proper ventilation. The dog sport vest is available in different versions:
- ladies: in the colors petrol, anthracite and anthracite-green, in sizes XS-4XL
- men: in the color anthracite, in sizes XXS-3XL
4. Harness with handle
Of course a good, sturdy leash is necessary in dog training, but the same goes for a good harness with which you can quickly grab your dog if needed. EQDOG‘s harnesses are equipped with a strong handle that allows you to lift up to 170 kilos (!). You can therefore easily correct and stop the average dog with the Classic Harness (available in sizes S, M and L/XL) or Pro Harness (available in sizes XS, S, M and L/XL) from EQDOG. The lightweight harnesses feature an ergonomic design and are easily adjusted to fit the dog’s body.

Pomppa celebrates with Femton
It’s party time at Pomppa this month, as the Finnish brand is celebrating its 15th anniversary! They are celebrating with a limited edition version of one of their biggest successes: the JumppaPomppa. This dog sweater is now temporarily available in the festive Femton print. This anniversary pattern is a limited edition. So you have to be quick to get your hands on this celebration sweater.
Big steps
With the limited edition print Femton, Pomppa is reflecting on the past fifteen years (Femton means fifteen in Swedish). In this, the Finnish brand has made great strides: it started in 2007 with the PerusPomppa, born out of the need to finally make a good dog coat that you can use for dog sports. A year later, the Pomppa brand was first introduced to the general public at the Agility World Championships in Helsinki with the Sade, Perus, Toppa and PikaPomppa. The dog coats proved to be an instant success and over the years Pomppa grew into a trusted name.
Sustainable ambitions
In recent years, Pomppa has looked at what dog owners and their dogs need, and perfected their designs accordingly. This has included an immediate focus on sustainability. Pomppa is now a leader in sustainability within the dog products industry. In two years, the company plans to use only renewable or recycled materials in the production of its dog coats, and by 2035, Pomppa aims to be completely carbon neutral. All new products are already being designed for the circular economy; in other words, all the used materials will be recyclable. The life cycle of the dog coats themselves will also be extended and through the platform RePomppa you can order or offer used dog coats.
The stunning JumppaPomppa
The choice of the limited edition print for the JumppaPomppa does not come out of the blue. This dog sweater is an absolute best seller, because the sweater is super convenient and easy to use on chilly days in spring and fall. The dog sweater is also an asset in a harsh winter, as it fits under all of Pomppa’s dog coats. The JumppaPomppa is very popular among dogs and dog owners because this sweater stays perfectly in place, the fabric does not become static and warms the dog without getting in the way. That’s why it’s an absolute must have three seasons of the year. The dog sweater is available in as many as 7 colors, and now temporarily also in the Femton print.
