In recent years, I’ve become a huge fan of winter adventures. The cold weather keeps people indoors, which means less crowded trails. The right winter gear for dogs (and humans!) makes these winter outing much more enjoyable. As they say, there’s no bad weather, only bad[...]

Over the many years I’ve run with a four-legged friend by my side, I have tested several hands-free running leashes and certainly have my favorites. Iron Doggy is a small company based out of Austin, Texas that makes dog running leashes specifically with the runner in mind, and has[...]
Sometimes, the most challenging part about camping is putting together all the gear you need and making sure you don’t forget anything important for a night outside. To help you head outdoors, I’ve put together a list of the car camping essentials you’ll need for you and your dog[...]

We’re just entering fall in the Pacific Northwest, which means the rainy weather isn’t all that far away. Hiking in the rain scares off a lot of people, however I don’t mind. If I waited until the rain stopped, I wouldn’t go outside for five months. So, it’s just something I accept so[...]
I used to live in a small town in the Hudson Valley in New York, where I had trails literally right outside my door. I could head out and go for miles upon miles in pure bliss. The only thing missing was a dog. I suppose that began the start of my transition from road running to trail[...]

We have so many travel dog bowls. I have one permanently attached to my backpack. One that lives in the car. Another that lives in our van. We have a few that we keep in the dogs’ travel bin. Sometimes, I’ll attach one to my purse if we’re out for a long walk in the city on a hot[...]
I was all set to start designing my perfect hands free dog leash. It would have an adjustable waist clip so that I could use it for walking and running. I could also easily attach my dog to an object if I needed two hands to do something. It would have a sliding adjustment in case we[...]
Throughout our two-year cycle tour, I struggled with finding handlebar tape that eliminated the pain that came with 50km daily rides towing 70lbs. On rough roads, especially, my wrists would ache and feel stiff. I tried to change positions regularly on the handlebars, but I didn’t feel[...]

As we’ve cycled over 10,000km in the last two years, there is one simple rule we have for all our gear: durability. We can’t afford to waste time, money, and energy replacing or repairing our gear. Not to mention finding suitable parts or gear on the road in the developing world can[...]
As we prepared for our multi-year cycle tour, selecting durable panniers that could accommodate our belongings was a top priority. Upon learning of Arkel from none other than the Metal Cowboy, a small Canadian company with just six office employees, we considered their line and ultimately[...]
