Short answers to common dog product questions we run into while testing stuff with Remy.
This page is for quick dog product answers, not a giant blog. When we have a real Remy test or a current partner code that helps, we link it naturally.
Skim the question, click the related Lab Note if you want the actual Remy test, and only use a partner code if you were already thinking about that product.
A climbing rope dog leash is a thicker rope style leash that usually feels sturdy in hand. For Remy, we care about grip comfort, clip security, weight, and whether it feels annoying on a normal walk. Related link: Pack Leashes code.
For most normal walks, many dog owners like a leash that gives some sniff room without letting the dog get too far ahead. The right choice depends on your dog, where you walk, and how much control you need. Related test: Pack Leashes Dino Collar Set.
A good training treat is small, easy to handle, motivating, and not so messy that you hate using it. With Remy, the main question is whether he cares enough to focus when distractions are around. Related partner: Pupford code.
Freeze dried treats can work well for training because they are usually lightweight and easy to break down. The tradeoff is that some can crumble in your pocket or treat pouch. We care most about motivation, mess, and portion size.
A bully stick is a single ingredient style dog chew that many dogs get excited about. For Remy, we look at odor, chew time, mess, and whether the size makes sense for a Lab. Related test: Mighty Paw Bully Sticks.
It depends on the dog, the thickness, and how hard they chew. A strong chewer can go through thinner sticks fast. We always watch Remy with chews and pay attention to size, smell, and how quickly he works through it. Related test: Wild Wolf Angus Bully Sticks.
A dog puzzle toy makes your dog work a little for food or treats. The goal is not just to keep them busy, it is to make them think without making the toy so hard that they give up. Related test: Potaroma Dog Puzzle Toy.
Reusable pet hair rollers can be worth it if you are constantly using lint rollers on couches, beds, or clothes. The main test is whether it grabs hair without needing sticky sheets. Related test: BLACK+DECKER Pet Hair Roller.
A rubber broom can pull pet hair out of carpet that a vacuum leaves behind. It can also be a workout, so it makes the most sense for rugs, thin carpet, or spot cleanup. Related test: FURemover Rubber Broom.
Dog bandanas can be fine when they fit comfortably and are used with supervision. We care about fit, material feel, and whether Remy actually tolerates wearing it. Related partner: Brooks & Roo code.
