We have previously reviewed a few Curli products and we are still very satisfied with the products. The Curli Vest Harness in Softshell and both leashes are in permanent use. Great, high quality and handy products for dogs which are thought through and will last long.

       

    

    

curli Retractable Leash
    

   
Description of the curli Retractable Leash: "DOGS USUALLY DON’T LIKE BEING ON THE LEASH. NEITHER DO OURS.

However, as a dog owner you will know that in some situations, there simply isn’t an alter- native. The retractable leash is one of curli’s rst products. When we needed a decent retractable leash ourselves, we trawled the specialist shops but found nothing suitable. We were espe- cially disappointed by the designs on o er. That’s why we created our own simple canvas one. The shape and design of the retractable leash is as small as possible in terms of ergonomics, so that the product is also as light as possible. 
The result - a compact leash with maximum freedom of movement for your dog.


FUNCTION & DESIGN

• 4 Meter / 13,12feet or 5 Meter belt / 16,4feet
• For dogs up to 16kg / 35lbs 4 Meter belt / 21kg / 46lbs 5 Meter belt
• Reflective Terylene belt for extra safety at night
• Rubberized handle for secure grip
• Separate Stop and Go Buttons
• Hole for attaching of accessories
•   

The curli Retractable Leash is available in 2 sizes; M (4 Meter) and L (5 Meter).
The curli Retractable Leash is also available in 3 different colours; sand, red and white."

Rocky with his curli Retractable Leash in M:

Review: So far, we only had one Retractable Leash within the 9 years of having Rocky and we didn't like it at all. I much prefer the curli Retractable Leash. One reason is that it has webbing instead of a typical rope. Rocky once got tangled around my legs in summer with his old Retractable Leash which then cut into my legs. Luckily, this cannot happen with the webbing of the curli Retractable Leash. Furthermore, the leash is very handy and I like the modest design.

I hope that more colours of the curli Retractable Leash will be available so that it can be colour matched with the rest of the set.

    

    

       

curli Placemat
    

Description of the curli Placemat: "You probably know from experience that it sometimes looks like a battlefield around your pet’s food bowl. This not only looks unappetizing but also means a lot of work to clean it up. Here at curli, we prefer to spend our time walking our dogs instead of mopping the floor, so we decided to develop a placemat that can be put down under food bowls to protect the floor and save on the cleaning up.

What was meant as a small project turned out to be one of our biggest challenges. The material needed to be flexible and the bottom had to be non-slip. The edges needed to be slightly raises, so nothing could spill.

Added to that, we wanted the mats to be machine washable. The project was bigger than we first thought – but our pride in the finished product matches our efforts. And to think, it was only a Placemat!

FUNCTION & DESIGN

• Fits 2 feeding bowls
• Slip-resistant
• Fast and easy cleaning
• Raised edges protection against spills
• Food safe silicone
• Antiallergic
• Food Safe
• UV Stable

The curli Placemat comes in one size; 54cm x 37,cm/ 21¼″ x 14¾″.
The curli Placemat also comes in 5 different colours; black, brown, warm-grey, skyblue and grass-green."

We have a curli Placemat in colour brown.

  

 
Rocky with his curli Placemat:

Review: The Placemat by curli is really brilliant. We previously already had a Placemat which we alienated, however, it permanently slipped around and also the dirt was not easily removed. I was unsure at first it was not too big for Rocky's rather small bowls, but I think it's good that it is a bit bigger. We also like the color. Rocky is not disturbed by it at all and he stands on the Palcemat without any problesm while eating. It is very easy to clean and it looks much more neat than before.

Rocky in his Scruffs Wilton Pet Carrier:

Review: Rocky loves carriers. I have been taking him with me wherever possible since he was a puppy which included airplane travels, so Rocky is very much used to carriers. He feels safe and secure in them and even sleeps in them when at home. He immediately jumped into the Wilton Pet Carrier when I unpacked it and I had a difficult time getting him out of it again. He seems to feel very comfortable in it as he is even laying inside it when at home now, rather than his bed.
I really like the Wilton Pet Carrier as it is of good quality and because Rocky loves it. The inside is super soft to touch so I can understand why Rocky is so comfortable in it.
I also like the convenient fold out water bowl which is attached to the carrier.
I would not really want to zip up the carrier as I think Rocky is then a bit cramped in it, but I like having the option to do so. It is also very versatile as it can be used as a carry on pet bed. Rocky loves being in it whether we are out and about or just at home.
Overall a great dog carrier.



Cool Mat

Decription of the Scruffs Cool Mat: "Many pets can suffer from the heat during hot summer months. The Scruffs® Cool Dog Mat is designed to provide relief for pets. Filled with a non-toxic gel the self-cooling mat will be typically 5-10 degrees cooler than room temperature. 

When in use, the mat will maintain its cooling properties for approximately 1hr depending upon the environment. To reset the mats cooling properties simply leave unused for 1hr, there is no need to freeze or refrigerate. 

The Scruffs® Cool Mat can be used alone, with an existing pet bed or in a pet carrier. To clean the mat simply wipe the cover with a cloth and soapy water, then rinse with clean water before use. Available in four sizes, including x-large, the Scruffs Cool Mat is great for dogs that like to sprawl.

The Scruffs Cool Mat is available in 4 different sizes; Small (50 x 40cm), Medium (77 x 62cm), Large (92 x 69cm) and X-Large (120 x 75cm)."

We have a Scruffs Cool Mat in size Small for Rocky.

Rocky on his Cooling Mat.

Review: Rocky usually loves summer and when it's warm outside. However, we had a few days in summer this year that were so hot that even he struggled. A cool mat is great for those hot days as the mat comfortable to lay on and naturally cools while not being too cold.
I think the cool mat would also be great in the car, especially for cars without air conditioning (Note; dogs should NEVER be left in the car on warm/ hot days, not even with a cool mat inside).
I especially like that this cool mat does not have to be gefrigerated or put in the freezer.
