As dog moms, we know that rain or shine, our pup friends need their daily exercise. While some pups may love a good rain shower, others may dread the thought of stepping out into the wetness. That’s why it’s important to have some rainy day dog walking essentials to make the experience as comfortable and enjoyable as possible for both you and your pooch.

The Essentials:

Waterproof gear: Invest in a good quality raincoat and boots for your pup to keep them dry and protect them from any mud or puddles along the way. Don’t forget to bring a rain jacket for yourself too!

Towels: Keep a few towels handy near your front door to dry your dog off before you step back inside your home. You don’t want your pup shaking off all that water and mud inside your house!

Treats and toys: Bring along some treats and toys to keep your pup entertained during the walk. A game of fetch with a waterproof toy or a tasty snack can help keep your dog’s mind off the rain and on having fun.

Visibility gear: Invest in a reflective leash, collar, or vest for your pup, and a reflective raincoat or hat for yourself to ensure that you and your dog are easily seen in low light conditions.

First aid kit: Make sure your kit includes items such as bandages, antiseptic wipes, and tweezers for any thorns or burrs your pup may encounter during the walk.

Rainy day dog walks can be a fun and enjoyable experience for you and your pup with the right essentials. Waterproof gear, towels, treats and toys, visibility gear, and a first aid kit are all items to consider when preparing for a rainy day walk. So don’t let a little rain get in the way of your daily exercise routine with your four legged companion.
