DOOG Walkie Belt
We have received a Walkie Belt by DOOG.
DOOG
"DOOG was founded in 2007 by Jamie and Jessica Knight. They are married and are dog lovers. They have owned dogs all their lives and they make them happy.
They all know dogs are happiest when they are outside running free. They need and love their daily exercise.
But to get out there you need to take a lot of stuff with you - tidy bags, keys, money, phone, lead, toys. Not only is that a lot to remember it's hard to carry too.
Jamie and Jessica were always forgetting things and hated having bulky pockets so they set out with the sole purpose of making it all a little easier by inventing the DOOG Walkie Belt.
The belt kept everything they needed for their walk in one place so it was the only thing they needed to grab as they left the house. It also meant no more annoying bulky pockets.
After testing the product with friends and family Jamie and Jessica got such great feedback that they decided to take the leap and start-up their own business that had a singular and unique focus: designing gear to encourage people to get out and walk their dogs more often and to have fun when they’re out.
Since launching the Walkie Belt, they have added other cool products like a super light foldable bowl which attaches to the belt and a lightweight dog swim towel. Now DOOG products are sold globally in the U.S., Europe and Asia and they are continuously developing new products to add to their range.
And recently, they were approached by Cesar Millan the famous "Dog Whisperer", who loved their belts so much he asked if they would make him some -so they have! Have a look at the new Pro Belt."

The DOOG Walkie Belt
Description of the DOOG Walkie Belt: "The DOOG Walkie Belt has been designed to free up your hands and pockets making it easier for you to walk, run and exercise with your dog. The Walkie Belt sits neatly and tightly on your hips so you hardly know your wearing it and best of all it looks much more stylish than a bum bag. Use it for running with Fido, going out for coffee with your doggie friends or just for a casual walk to the park. Just hang it at your front door with a spare house key in the front pocket and all you need to grab as you leave the house is your dog. Genius"

- 20 x tidy bags and 20 x hand wipes pre-inserted
- Carabiner on one side of the belt to attach leash to (once dog is let off)
- Front pockets to hold more treats and valuables

All features of the DOOG Walkie Belt at one glance.
All my "on the go stuff" in the DOOG Walkie Belt. I used the centre pockets for my mobile phone and my keys, attached a leash to the carabiner clip and used the iPod clip to attach my Clicker to.
This is how the DOOG Walkig Belt looks like when worn:
Review: I think the DOOG Walkie Belt is brilliant! I usually put all my "on the go stuff" in my jacket pockets but in summer I have to take a bag along as it's too warm for wearing a jacket. With the DOOG Walkie Belt I no longer need a bag in summer but can simply place all my important items in the Walkie Belt and buckle it up around my hip.
The size and features of the DOOG Walkie Belt are perfect as it is big enough to stow all my stuff and the features such as the iPod clip allow me to attach a Clicker to.
Furthermore, I like that the Walkie Belt is made out of all weather material (with the exception of the Pink Polka Dot version), so it can even be worn when it's raining.
Even though it's good that the Walkie Belt is adjustable, I find the strap a bit too long (as you can see in the pictures when I am wearing it) and will most likely cut a few inches off.
Overall, I think the DOOG Walkie Belt is a great with all it's features and space to stow away personal items, leaving you hands-free on walks.
