WHY
KATIE'S BUMPERS ARE GREAT!
- Katie's
Bumpers were designed with both humans and dogs in mind.
- Katie's
Bumpers are fun and cool and unique.
- Katie's
Bumpers are safe for everyone. All of the designs on the
bumpers are molded into the non-toxic vinyl as part of the
manufacturing process. It is not painted on and therefore
will not come off in your dog's mouth.
- Whether
you are a serious dog trainer doing land or water work or
you have a dog that loves to fetch, Katie's Bumpers are
great.
- They
are easy for you and your dog to see in just about any setting
or weather condition.
- They
have just the right amount of weight for a good toss.
- When
they roll on the ground or on the water, everyone can find
them.
- We
have tested them in pools, in the ocean, lakes and reservoirs
and every dog has gotten their new patterned bumper.
- They
are easy to wash. You can throw them in the sink and use
a little soap and water to get the day's dirt off, or throw
them in the dishwasher.
UNUSUAL
USES FOR KATIE'S BUMPERS
- I
just spoke with a woman who is getting her PhD in Environmental
Ecology. She is training her 2 Dutch Shepards
to find scat in the wild. In other words, her dogs
will be on permanent poop patrol in the wild so they can
do research on wild animal behavior. She is getting
a Super Sqwuggie and a Big Tug.
- We
supply a few police departments and police
canine training centers with “drug sqwugs”.
These are squeakerless sqwuggies with Velcro bottoms.
The drug and bomb dogs and their trainers are able to put
simulated drugs and bomb “stuff” in the toys.
They are extremely versatile for the handlers.
- For
years, Search and Rescue groups have special
ordered various configurations of sqwuggies and heave hose
for land and water rescue work. We work with different
teams to build custom products to help them improve their
training.
- Water
rescue dogs, such as newfoundlands and portueguese
water dogs, have been using Katie’s Bumpers since
the day we started making our toys. Actually, Katie’s
Bumpers were designed for Newfie water rescue tests.
They have become staples in all of the water kits and meet
specifications for both breed water tests.
- Dock
Dogs: Many people competing in Dock Dogs
are using Katie’s Bumpers! They throw well,
are easy to see and make a great target for the dogs in
the pool and on open water. See Murphy’s picture in
the Photo Gallery doing a big long jump with his red bumper!
Murphy and Cindy are sponsored by Katies Bumpers.
- Canine
Rehab Centers: We are fortunate enough to
have a fantastic canine Rehab center, Canine Rehabiltation
and Conditioning Group, in the Denver area. They have
a great indoor pool and wonderful facilities to help dogs
heal. CRCG’s favorite pool toy are Katie’s
Bumpers.
- Doggie
Day Care: We have a great Doggie Day Care
Program. They can buy “cosmetically imperfect”
seconds for their day care. With the kind of wear
and tear dog toys get, we know that a good game of tug with
any of the fire hose toys will last a good long time.
