Dog Geek
Dog Geek is all dressed up and waiting on the missus. They’re going for a hike. Or a swim. Or an overnight journey. Maybe all three... he can’t tell.
His RuffWear Ensemble Includes:
• A Go Between Cinch Top™ and a Quencher™, collapsible food and water bowls.
• His Mt. Bachelor Pad™. The portable, oversized bed keeps a leash on pet hair and dirt and is ideal for camping or just lounging in the yard.
• Stylin’ Bark’n Boots™ GripTrex™, all condition, all-terrain, all-season paw wear.
• A Cloud Chaser™ Soft Shell Jacket. This storm-ready topper is waterproof, windproof, insulating, and breathable.
• A Stow’n Go Leash™ More for the missus, since Dog Geek doesn’t think he needs a leash — this all-in-one combo puts leash, collar, and pickup bag dispenser into one handy package.
• His own backpack: The Approach Pack™ II lets Dog Geek carry his own gear and yours.
• And, a K-9 First Aid Kit™. All the missus needs to stanch a deep cut or a or a broken toe nail — hers included.
And the cat? Well, that’s Butterscotch, and she’s just too cool to be a geek. www.ruffwear.com |
