More quality, more Owney!

Even more quality time with your dog. That is the big promise of Owney Outdoor. And they live up to that promise with a brand new catalog with five (!) new jackets for every dog owner.

Nova for men and women
In the new Owney Outdoor brochure, women in particular are presented with beautiful new coats. But there is nothing to complain about for men either, because the brand new Nova jacket comes in both a tailored version for women and a beautiful unisex or men’s model. Both models are wind/waterproof and breathable, equipped with reflective zippers and logo, removable hood, two-way zipper and goody bag. The women’s version is available in red or blue, the men’s version in cobalt blue.

Two parkas, a raincoat and a softshell
In addition to the Nova, Owney is launching four new women’s jackets

Tuvaq is a reliable outdoor parka with taped seams and a fixed hood. The jacket has four outer pockets, one inside pocket and an adjustable waist. The fabric is breathable and wind/waterproof. Available in orange and apple green.
Arnauti is a great outdoor parka, high quality with taped seams and a fixed hood. The jacket has a two-way zipper, reflectors, a large back pocket and a handy inner pocket. The fabric is wind/waterproof and breathable. Available in ivy green, elder red, alpine blue, ocean blue, vintage red and anthracite.

Owney Outdoor launches new catalog for 2019

The French Connection

At the beginning of this year we already announced that we were asked to conquer the French market for DOG Copenhagen. We have received so much positive feedback about our assortment that we will now also include EQDOG, EQuest 4dogs and Owney Outdoor. While preparing for this new area we came across the 3 most important rules for four-legged friends in France – handy for customers with holiday plans and if you yourself have a romantic weekend planned in Paris (of course with your dog).

  1. Identify your dog
    As of July 3rd, 2004, certain rules apply within the European Union if you travel with your dog. For example, you must have a European pet passport. Since the 29th of April 2014, there is a new EU Pet Passport that only a veterinarian can provide for you, only after entering the correct data and laminating the relevant pages. Old passports issued and completed before that date will remain valid. In addition, you must also ensure that your dog is ‘chipped’. This way your dog can always be identified.
  2. Proper vaccination
    When traveling through Europe, your dog must also have a valid rabies vaccination. You should also get a dog-tag for that on the collar/harness. You must obtain the rabies vaccination up to 21 days before departure and this may not be older than one year if you cross EU borders. Dogs that are less than 3 months old cannot be vaccinated against rabies yet, so they are not allowed to enter France.
  3. Leave the tough dog at home
    France prefers fighting and guard dogs to leave rather than enter their country. That is why they apply strict rules for taking these “tough” dogs with you. This concerns certain crossbreeds that are not registered in a pedigree that is recognized by the French Ministry of Agriculture. In appearance they resemble:
  • Pitbulls and crossbreeds with American Staffordshire Terrier
  • Boerbulls and crossbreeds with the Mastiff
  • Crossbreeds with the Tosa

Do you want to take these dogs with you? Then you must comply with all kinds of rules. For example, with a special French course where you must prove that you have your dog under control and get a positive result on a bite test that your dog undergo in France.

You can find more information and links to all the rules in France on this Dutch website by the central government.O
