I’m a hot girl. I do hot things. Like get home from a night out and pass on jumping in bed in favor of a bleary-eyed walk with my dog. Classic pet parent lifestyle realities. So what’s a gal or guy to do when their strolls start feeling a bit stale? Reach for one of these cool accessories to pump up your daily outings and be the coolest pet parent on the pavement.
1. Wild One Walk Kit
If you give a dog a walkie, he’s gonna want some gear. And before you even hit the road, you’re going to need a solid set, and Wild One has enough colors to satisfy even the pickiest pup.
2. Dog-friendly sunscreen
We all know that SPF protection is the key to keeping our skin youthful and healthy, but our dogs need some protection from the hot sun, too! We love this non-toxic sunscreen; it doesn’t have the traditional coconut scent that most have, which ensures your dog won’t ingest it.
3. Pet life jacket
If your hot girl walks take you near the water, you may want to invest in a life jacket for your adventure pup! Even if they’re strong swimmers, there’s no harm in giving them a little extra buoyancy to avoid an unexpected vet visit.
4. GPS activity tracker
Now, more than ever, technology has allowed us to track data from our daily lives and use it to inform our health choices. With a dog activity tracker, you’ll get lots of great information about their stamina, nutritional needs, distance walked daily, and even their GPS coordinates if god forbid they get away from you.
Eco-friendly poop bags
Believe it or not, your dog’s poop adds up. While bagging and tossing it in the nearest wastebasket is mandated in most cities (and keeps our parks clean and tidy), traditional poop bags are not the most earth-friendly option. Grab a pack of these cute eco-friendly, biodegradable bags instead. Mother Nature will thank you!
6. Running belt
Running with your dog can be either an exhilarating or exasperating experience. With the Zee Dog running belt, pulling is reduced due to the flexible leash, and the hands-free design makes exercise with your pet by your side a breeze.
7. Bespoke leash and collar set
This high-end set features a lightweight aluminum handle that can be customized with add-ons that make your walk easier, like a small tote that can fit anything from AirPods to waste bags. If you’re looking for a handmade leash that turns heads, look no further.
8. Minimalist dog ID tag
A solid ID tag is one of the most important things to remember on your hot girl dog walks. Along with your searchable Figo tag (if you’re part of the Figo Fam) this engravable tag is a minimalist option and fits with any collar aesthetic.
9. Matching bucket hats
Let the whole world know that you and your dog are pals for life with some stylish matching bucket hats. Perfect for when the weather starts getting a little cooler but you still want sun protection.
10. Dog cooling mat
If your strolls leave both you and your dog panting, it’s time to invest in a cooling mat. These pressure-activated pads are a favorite of thousands of pet parents on Amazon, and it effectively lowers body temperature to a more comfortable degree.
11. Bocce Bakery hip supplement treats
For dogs on the older end of the age scale, even a slow strut can lead to sore joints. Supplementing with hip vitamins and treats can be beneficial and make daily walks more enjoyable. We love the limited-ingredient Bocce Bakery recipes, and so do our dogs.
