As a dog trainer who does one to one sessions at my clients homes around London, I have to make sure I carry everything with me that I may need for multiple different sessions a day. Now over a few weeks, my backpack can get pretty messy and today was a clean out day. This prompted me to take stock of everything I need to have with me.
So, I wanted to give you a little snapshot as to what I carry in my dog training backpack day to day! This changes depending on what sessions I have, the weather, the type of treats I am using for each dog, and what their main motivation is, but for the most part here is what I carry:
1) Treats & Toys
Variety of low, medium and high value treats (blog post on this coming soon)
Ball
Frisbee
Kong
2) Training Tools
Clicker
Squeaker
Silent whistle
Spare leash and collar
Spare front clip harness
Long Line (if I know I am doing recall exercises)
3) Clean Up!
Poop bags (uou can never have enough!)
Tissues
Water and portable bowl
Hand sanitizer
4) Brand Merchandise
Business cards
Business flyers
Bandanas (check out here to order yours too in a variety of patterns!)
Butternut Box cards (remember you can get 75% off of your first box by going here)
5) HUMAN THINGS!
Snacks (hanger is a real thing.)
Portable phone charger
Spare socks (so important when you are working outdoors hah!)
Notebook
Money
Yes, it does all fit! And occasionally my laptop comes with me too if I have time between sessions to write my reports!
