About this list:

No list of dog-related equipment would be complete without a section for handler gear. So here are some of my favorites, some "must haves" and some neat stuff for dog handlers.

Boonie Hat

First to recommend

Description

The classic boonie hat is a staple of military headgear - it offers all-round protection from the sun and rain.

Dog handlers who train their dog for sports such as Schutzhund and agility, and handlers of working dogs such as Search-and-Rescue dogs, often find themselves outside, exposed to all sorts of weather. Hot summer heat or pouring rain. The boonie hat offers good protection from those elements at an affordable price - and does a much better job than your average baseball cap.

Bio-Tac Odor Eliminator

First to recommend

Description

Bio-Tac makes a great line of K-9 products to clean kennels, eliminate odors and keep dogs healthy and comfortable. Their Odor Eliminator spray is one of those products.

Their Odor Eliminator spray is one of my favorite BioTac products because it really does work. I've used it on my dog gear, dog crate, and car. I've also used it in my stinky military boots, my helmet, flak jacket, sneakers, and other equipment that tends to get "stinky" such as sports bags and hiking backpacks.

The Odor Eliminator spray can be used as a "contact" spray (spraying it on something) as well as an air freshener. I love this stuff and keep a bottle at home and in the car.

MWD T-shirt

First to recommend

Description

There are literally hundreds of different "working dog" design T-shirts on the market, but about 99.9% of them are geared toward the sport of Schutzhund or to police, search and rescue, and narcotics dogs.

This is one of the very few (I can count them on one hand!) designs for military working dog handlers, and it would make a nice gift for any MWD handler ... or a nice T-shirt if you want to show your support for military working dog teams.

The T-shirts are very high quality. Screen printed.
