When you go out for walks...

[Max X 2]

At first I bought a coat (not at all trendy  ) with loads of pockets, a pocket for everything  another coat has 2 pockets which everything gets squeezed in but like you say when its just t.shirt what do you do?
Max knows the bum bag is his, we use it for training too



Is there any left mum?

I take bumbags or larger bags depending on the length of the walk --- longer walks always involve water for me and them (plus spare leads, flashing bike lights and their flashing collars just in case, wipes, food/chocolate for me, light waterproofs, money and credit card for emergencies!). Obviously at this age walks are short.

I had thought of a bum bag and couldn't find one anywhere.  My local PAH did not have any, nor offered to get any either.  However, in the centre of Peterborough I found a store called, "Bags".  It stocked everything from very expensive leather Gladstones to naff nylon bum bags for £3.49 - which are just perfect for dog walking!  Not sure if this is a nationwide store and I felt quite mean only spending less than £5 with them, but immensely pleased to have found the perfect dog walking bum bag.  Great for training too, with two little pockets for "treats".

Failing a nationwide "Bags" store, my next place would have been Boots travel section, where they sell blow up pillows etc for flights.

Good luck!

We bought the dog rucksack when we were at Crufts, it has space for all your doggie needs, it even has a washable dog poo bag, by that I mean a washable bag to put your dog poo bag into!!! It even has a pocket for your mobile phone and keys

Here's a link for the site that sell them www.paws4designs.co.uk

Have to admit I was happy having full pockets, my daughter talked me into buying the bag, but it is good, and the poo bags that come with it are even big enough for us giant dog owners

I have different size bum bags for different walks - my in-laws bring them back from the US for me when they go on holiday - so they are not bum bags, but fanny pouches 

You've reminded me of when Oh & I were in mexico sat at the pool bar, there were some Americans sat next to us and one of them shouted to her Oh "can you pass me my fanny pack"   OH & I both looked at each other and peed our sides   we were both a bit tipsy. Was just one of those moments that was so funny  

I am gonna go and remind him of it in a minute  

What's that they say about small things amusing small minds

Yes, I have got a bum bag (from Lidl) that takes toys, poo bags, treats and even a water bottle. Much better than having to look for everything before each walk.

Hi all
 Reading this post made me think where am i going to put things when we go for a walk I know it is a while off yet about a month before we venture out.  have bring merlin home first  then get him vaccinated but It is something I will have to get for when we go out and a bum bag seem a great option for leaving your hands free when on walkies. so had a look on ebay and they have loads of different types on there
 http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/search.dll?from=R40&_trksid=m37&satitle=bum+bag so think I will get one of them for when we do go out

Okay guys, "bum bag" sounds a lot funnier to me than what we call them in Canada-->"fanny packs"    Well I have one of those too, but I got it at a jogging store and it's actually for holding a CD player which noone uses anymore anyways.  It comes with a plastic bottle for water and is just the right size for my stuff!
