Going for a walk is far and away my dog Dave’s favorite activity. (But also so is eating.) The sniffing, the squirrels, the street treats all enrich his three-times-a-day bathroom forays. And while I often enjoy our outings together, sometimes I just … don’t.Nothing can make me less lazy or less cranky about crappy weather, yet some products can at least make the chore a bit easier.After compiling a list of nearly 200 dog-walking accessories, I tested 60 products before ending up with the small mountain of recommendations you’ll find below.No one needs all of these products. Beyond the essentials (a leash, a collar, and a harness), none of these items are necessary for a successful bathroom break. However, they can improve the experience, and some of them might turn an obligatory trek into a walk in the park.
