Sick and tired of leashes that are uncomfortable and in many cases uncomfortable to your pup? Now you've got an earth-friendly no-pull option! The Easy Walk Harness is offered in limited sizes, these harnesses look and feel hot without contributing to global warming. Traditional harnesses can actually encourage dogs to pull harder because of the "opposition reflex." That's the reflex that makes sled dogs do what they do. The Easy Walk Harness's unique front-chest leash attachment stops pulling by tightening slightly across your dog's chest and shoulder blades. The gentle pressure steers your dog to the side, redirecting his attention back towards you. The Easy Walk Harness won't cause coughing, gagging, or choking because the chest strap rests low across the breastbone, not on the delicate tracheal area. Surprise your dog with a leash that both you and him can appreciate! http://www.furrytravelers.com/m7/31284--eco-easy-walk-harness-and-leash.html

Cookie and I just got back from the AKC Dog Show in Atlanta. It has been a few months since we traveled together and it reminded me how important it is to have proper pet travel accessories. These are some of our favorites:
Safety First!
The Kurgo Skybox Booster Seat keeps smaller dogs safely buckled, while allowing them to see out the window - something a simple safety harness can make difficult.
The Skybox adjusts to any height and holds up to 30 pounds. I often put both of our dogs in it! You simply strap them to their own harness, or a safety harness. When it is not in use, just unclasp the seat strap and flip it over the head rest. It is lightweight and collapses to just a few inches when not in use.
Note:
All dogs should be safely buckled up, just like you and the rest of your family. There are many styles of safety harnesses to choose from at many price ranges. You might be surprised to find how quickly your dog adjusts to a safety harness. Even the most active dogs can feel more secure when they are restrained in the car. And everyone will be safer in case of a sudden stop or accident.
The To Go Bowl by Furry Travelers is a must have travel accessory for all road trips. Cookie was able to drink whenever she wanted without having to stop the car or worry about splashing. We also used the bowl in our hotel and at the dog show by removing the cup portion (which of course carried her treats).
The patented, award winning To Go Bowl fits cup holders between 3 - 4 inches and can be used for dogs of all sizes.
We never take a trip without Cookie's own bag, the EBD Carry All Travel Bag. This bag is the greatest! It has so many interior pockets that staying organized is a piece of cake. Cookie had to look her best while working at the dog show, so we had pockets for her hair brush, dental spray, tear wipes, extra harness and leash, a coat (it was cold there!) and still had room for some of my own things. The EBD Carry All Bag even comes with its own fleece blanket.
NEW FAVORITE: I picked up the Kurgo Quantum Leash at the trade show this month. It is a leash that can be used 6 different ways (see details)! I didn't really see a benefit to using this type of leash, especially for a small dog like Cookie. While setting up our booth at the show, I thought I would give it a try. Cookie likes to be with me all the time, especially when in a new environment. I often keep her in her Susan Lanci Travel Sling, but she can still be in the way and gets kind of heavy after a while. Anyway, I hooked the Quantum Leash to her harness and hooked it across my shoulder. What a problem solver! She was with me everywhere I went, without me having to carry her.
Finally, the big seller of the show and perhaps my all time favorite product (next to the To Go Bowl, of course), is the Susan Lanci Travel Sling. Cookie "hung around" all day, every day at the show and really started a trend with the other small dog owners in Atlanta. The sling is ideal for smaller dogs (under 10 pounds) and comfortable for both you and your pup. It is lightweight, breathable, and folds up so small you can keep it in your pocket or purse!
Traveling with your dog can be fun and easy! There are many, many great travel accessories for pets. Furry Travelers goal is to carry the newest and most unique pet travel products on the market. We are constantly adding great new items, so check our website often!

We are all in the habit of using our seatbelt whenever we drive. Most pet owners, however, do not think about using a safety harness for their pet. It is time we do!
According to the American Automobile Association, unrestrained pets cause more than 30,000 accidents annually. That's thousands of fatalities and injuries that could have been avoided with the use of a simple pet restraint, harness or crate.
Bark Buckle-UP founder, Christina Selter, warns that an unrestrained dog can be dangerous to everyone in the vehicle. "In a 30 MPH accident, a 60-pound dog can cause an impact of more than 2,700 pounds, slamming into a car seat, windshield or other passenger."
And let's face it, any one of us would be heart-broken if our dog was injured, or worse, killed in an accident because we were too rushed or lazy to buckle them into a safety harness. (Hint - leave the seat belt attachment in the car at all times so it is easy to snap onto your dog's harness. It will be one less thing to remember as you leave home, too!)
So...let's make a New Year's Resolution to buckle up our pet every time we go for a drive - no matter how short the distance. To make things easy, I am going to review a few of the travel harnesses we carry on our website:
1) Kurgo Tru-Fit Safety Harness: This is probably the easiest harness to put on your dog that I am aware of. Once adjusted for size, you simply slip it over your dog's head and then buckle the strap around its chest. That's it! It comes with a loop that you put your seat belt through and attach to the harness to keep your Furry Traveler in place while you drive. It is made of high-quality automotive seat belt materials and has a broad padded chest plate for extra protection and comfort. Good for dogs over 10 pounds. Price: $22.99 - $28.99.
2) The PetBuckle Seat Belt Harness provides protection in a standard vehicle by using the vehicle's seat belt, LATCH bar system or cargo area to securely restrain a harnessed dog. Just slip the seat belt through the web loop on the harness and buckle up. For dogs over 15 pounds. Crash tested for safety. Price: $49.99.
3) For the more fashion conscious, we offer a variety of comfortably padded safety harnesses in a variety of colors and patterns. Many of these styles snap right into your own car's seat belt buckle - very easy to use.
Whatever your choice may be, just remember that having your dog restrained is one less distraction for you and so much safer for your Furry Traveler!

Happy New Year from your friends at Furry Travelers!

After a long winter, it is finally time for warmer weather and getting outdoors with your Furry Traveler! Here is our list of this year's top 10 pet supply items for spring:
1) Dog Safety Harnesses
Whether used to keep hyper dogs from interfering with the driver, risking the safety of the vehicle's passengers, or to secure a dog for its own protection, dog harnesses are perfect for transporting pets on the road. We offer several harnesses with differing sizes, fit, and durability, so you can select the right harness for your furry friend.
2) Snoozer Sporty Bike Basket
The Snoozer Sporty is a doggy bike carrier with durable microfiber, removable inner padding, and a comfortable chin rest for a pooch to enjoy a relaxing bike ride as much as its owner. With two side pockets for water bottles and a removable rain cover, this item is perfect for a spring cruise in the park, be it rain or shine.
3) Kurgo Winga™
The Kurgo Winga is an ingenious outdoor toy that allows owners to engage with their pet during playtime. With a durable rubber disc that can be launched up to 200 feet in the air, this is the perfect item for energetic pups to play with alongside their owners at the park on a sunny afternoon.
4) Car Seat Covers
With more time for muddy adventures and trips to the closest lake, river, or beach, a seat cover or cargo cover is a must! These items are invaluable for springtime activities by providing car seats with protection from muddy paws, dog hair, and unfavorable odors.
5) Raincoat for spring showers
Doggy raincoats are a must-have item to prepare one's pooch for heavy spring showers. Some dogs may love splashing in puddles, but this rain gear will keep pets from getting completely soaked on walks throughout the spring. Plus, this accessory is just too adorable not to own and provides any owner with a great prop for a priceless doggy photo shoot.
6) Dog Water Bottle
The Handi-Drink is a compact, portable water bottle for pets on-the-go that has a patented rubber flow-control valve in the cap to prevent leaks, spills, and backwash contamination. It is available in three different sizes and includes a dispenser tray, belt clip and carrying strap for convenient transportation.
7) Doggy Backpack
The Day Tripper Backpack is a travel pack for pets to wear that features two zippered pouches that can be used to store dog supplies and toys in. Structured to adjust for balance load and padded for extra comfort, this rugged travel pack is perfect for hikes, camping, and other fun outdoor activities.
8) Dog strollers
Furry Travelers knows that pet owners on-the-go are often left missing out for their pets or troubled by having to leave their dogs home alone for public events, festivals, and gatherings. We have dog strollers to fit every type of dog and activity so owners can now bring their furry friends along without the worry. This picture is from a trade show we brought Cookie and Katie to. It came in very handy!
9) Dog Carrier-Backpack
The SHERPA Back Pack is the perfect hybrid of a backpack and a dog carrier, used to transport pets from place-to-place, be it around town or the globe. It can be used as a handbag or shoulder bag, and fits comfortably under airline cabin seats.
10) Hands-Free Leash
Finally, a solution for active pet owners who enjoy taking their dog along for a run or brisk walk but hate having their hands in a bind. The Patento Pet Hands Free Leash wraps securely around the wrist, allowing owners to free up both hands so that they can jog with a more natural posture.
TO GO BOWL
Of course, we must also mention our own To Go Bowl! Remember to take it along while out and about with your pooch and you won't need to share your drink or make a special stop at the drive through for water.
Have a Happy Spring!
