Things I love: when my dogs listen on the first command, chocolate chip cookies, and when my awesome customers have great ideas. I was asked to make an e-collar lanyard but the length of a safety clip.. or in other words a wrist strap. Why didn’t I think of that?? Thank you for the suggestion and now available on Etsy! https://41northfw.etsy.com/listing/1653740711

If you’re anything like me, you’re trying to figure out where most of June has gone already. Yesterday was the first day of summer, and if you’re in the Midwest like us, summer came in hot! 😎 Morning and late evening walks have been our friend. here is the gear that I typically have on my dogs when we walk. All of it is 41N gear available on Etsy!

This is what today is all about!

🐕🇺🇸Lucca, a German Shepherd-Belgian Malinois mix, was deployed twice to Iraq and once to Afghanistan. She served on more than 400 missions during her tenure, finding ammunition, explosives, and insurgents at least 40 times during her six-year career. More notably, there wasn’t a single human fatality under her watch despite the dangerous conditions.

Lucca went out on her final mission in 2012, when she uncovered a 30-pound explosive device. While continuing her search, another device detonated underneath her. Lucca’s handler ran to her rescue despite known active explosives in the area. Lucca lost her front left leg but was able to recover from her injury and walk again in 10 days. After her sacrifice, Lucca retired and moved back home with Gunnery Sgt. Chris Willingham. Like Gander, Lucca was awarded the Dickin Medal, earning hers in 2016.

Thank you to all of the Men, Women, and our Faithful Friends for your service. Today we honor you.

Do you want to support small and local? 🇺🇸
When we buy from big box stores, we have no idea where the products are coming from. We buy local to support small businesses and know where the products are made.
Everything at 41N is hand made, packaged, and marketed myself out of our garage. I also do my best to support domestic suppliers. Here is my main list of suppliers and where they are based out of. Take a look!
- Rope.com - Coconut Creek, FL
- Buckleguy.com - Newburyport, MA
- strapworks.com - Eugene, OR
- Strapwarehouse.com - Millersburg, OH
- Paracordplanet.com - Fargo, ND

😮 so cool!

Do you know how the famous Kong toy was invented?!

The Kong toy was invented by accident more than 40 years ago when Joe Markham needed a way to prevent his German Shepherd Fritz from biting on rocks and sticks. Fritz, who Markham adopted as a shelter dog, had worn down his teeth to one-third of the size they should have been.

He was working on his Volkwagen bus and tossed an axle stop with an attached bracket on the ground. His dog got hold of it and loved it. He was playing with it joyously, much to Markham’s amusement.

He said to his friend, “What do you think of my new dog toy?”

His friend replied, “Actually, it’s not too pretty. It looks like an earplug from King Kong.”

And the Kong toy was born.

Most slip leashes, have stoppers that do not stay in place. These stoppers are extra large spring-loaded stoppers that lock into place to make sure that the leash stays where it should!

Most of us have a problem, and it’s not recall, reactivity, or obedience.. it’s that we have an alarming amount of pictures of our dogs! 😂
Here is one of my favorites of Hallie!
