We have gathered together a small selection of people who have successfully used Yellow Dog UK products to help their dogs and themselves when out and about.
Please do have a read just to see how much these products really can help many dog owners.
Jenny and her dog Nancy love their Yellow Dog vests, as you can see from this great photo! ‘Nancy is one of my dog walking dogs and she’s completely blind, so needs her space when out on walks.’ The Yellow Dog vest is clear and obvious and becomes an easy item giving Jenny piece of mind when out walking. Other dog walkers, or even those without dogs may not appreciate Nancy’s disability but the vest sends an immediate alert so people can be considerate and understanding, of course this then helps Jenny and Nancy enjoy the fun walk they both deserve.
Luna is another Yellow Dog lover who has been given so much more freedom from wearing her Yellow Dog items.
‘It alerts people that she needs space on walk due to her nervousness and we’re very grateful of it.’ Luna loves to get out in all weathers but as a small dog who is rather anxious around others when out and about the Yellow Dog leads and covers are both practical and affordable. The lead covers are only £8 and can be used on all leads, it can be used as an aid for training and just has a small popper to secure onto the lead, with a very useful reflective strip for evening walks and you can just pop into the washing machine to wash, which is great for Luna after her muddy walks!
A Yellow Dog lead is also so useful. Whether a double lead, or a single lead or a training lead. These leads are amazing quality, the double handle lead is great in enabling you to keep your dog close when needed, quickly and easily without sending stressful messages to your dog. These are £15 and quite honestly an absolute bargain, it has two padded easy grip soft handles and with the I NEED SPACE logo couldn’t be clearer to other walkers that your dog does indeed need their space.

‘This is a really good item to have for my dog as he is a rescue and very reactive to other dogs. Most people with dogs see this message and do give him the space he needs if I haven’t already made the space myself’
