Tuff Mutt Waist Hands Free Dog Leash
For trips to Discovery Park or the coast: a waterproof hammock-style cover that keeps wet fur and muddy paws off the back seat. A gift the car will thank you for too.
Active Pets Black Waterproof Car Seat Cover
Spoil the Dog
A long-lasting chew that's shaped so dogs can hold it easily. A good pick for power chewers who destroy plush toys in minutes. Pick the size that matches the dog.
Benebone Wishbone Dog Chew Toy Aggressive
The rainy-day boredom buster. Hide kibble or treats in the fabric and let the dog sniff them out. Ten minutes of nose work tires a dog out more than you'd think when walks get cut short.

A comfy orthopedic bed with bolsters for leaning on, especially nice for older dogs and big ones. It comes in several sizes, and the cover zips off for washing after muddy days.

A fun, science-backed read on how dogs see, smell and think. Perfect for the dog person who wants to understand their pup better. Pair it with a treat for the dog.
