Packing salmon for wherever the dog goes
Last updated
The pouch is lightweight and shelf stable, so it travels well. These posts follow it out the door: travel, road trips and hiking, the dog park, where the advice is to ask other owners first, and table manners on a dog friendly patio. Others cover what to leave for a dog walker or sitter, a workday at the office, and what to pack and ask before grooming and vet visits. Reseal the pouch after each handful and the rest is mostly planning.
