The Best Gifts for Outdoorsy Dogs (And Their Humans)

You have good gear, why shouldn't your best friend? Upgrade your four-legged adventure buddy's kit this year with any of our favorite gift ideas below.Rex Specs V2 Dog GogglesHelp protect your dog's peepers from debris, sunshine, glare and haters with Rex Specs. A multi-point connection system loops under the muzzle and behind the ears for a secure, bounce-free fit. (The system isn't as effective on flat-faced or short-nosed doggos, unfortunately.) The interchangeable lenses (each pair comes with clear and dark options) are spherical for a wide field of vision and ultimate drip. $85.95Ruffwear Flagline Dog HarnessA good harness reduces strain on your pup's neck and shoulders, and can discourage pulling. The Flagline Dog Harness from Ruffwear checks those boxes and more. This durable, customizable harness is relatively low-profile and so lightweight it feels barely there for Fido, with six adjustment points for maximum comfort. A foam-padded construction and a streamlined back handle make it easy to give your dog a lift or boost them up over obstacles and into vehicles. The Flagline is a breeze to put on and take off, and three points of attachment help your pup stay secure on a leash in any environment. There's even a loop to add a small light or an ID tag for additional safety. $69.95Nite Ize Nitehowl Rechargeable LED Safety NecklacePhoto credit: Andrew BydlonKeep eyes on your best friend after the sun goes down with this light-up collar. Three colorful LEDs (red, green or blue) or optional Disc-O mode illuminate a lightweight polymer tube that you snip to fit around your pooch's neck. It's great for campsite hangouts and after-dark walks or runs to keep your doggo visible to traffic. Micro USB rechargeable battery is ready to go after about 1.5 hours plugged in, and Nite Ize claims a run time of 5.5 hours. $20Ruffwear Grip Trex Dog Boots - PairPhoto credit: Andrew BydlonShield your pooch's paws from granite, spiky desert floor, snow, ice, melt chemicals and more with the Ruffwear Grip Trex booties. They slide on easily with a hook-and-loop closure and boast a tacky Vibram® outsole that's on par with what's likely on your own shoes. There's a learning curve for the first-time wearer, but it tends to result in a funny video, so keep your phone handy. Note: The Grip Trex are sold in pairs because your dog's front and back paws may be different sizes. $39.95Ruffwear Knot-a-Hitch Campsite Hitching SystemBring peace of mind to your campsite while giving your best friend plenty of room to roam with the Knot-a-Hitch Campsite Dog Hitching System from Ruffwear. This sturdy, climbing-inspired tether setup lets you quickly secure your dog to a solid anchor point (either around two trees or a single post) without worrying about knots or complicated networks so your pup can get to business safely exploring within a designated area. The swiveling carabiner helps keep the strong, reflective kernmantle rope from tangling, and the whole kit fits into its own stow bag when not in use. $79.95Adventure Medical Kits ADS Me And My Dog First Aid KitExperienced adventurers know to expect the best but plan for the worst—that's why every furry fam needs the Me And My Dog First Aid Kit from Adventure Medical Kits.
