Dog-Hitching Campsite Harnesses

The Ruffwear 'Knot-a-Hitch' Keeps Pets in One Designated Area

The Ruffwear 'Knot-a-Hitch' has been developed as a harness for dogs who are owned by outdoor enthusiasts to let them explore and enjoy time outside without letting them wander off too far.

The harness system works by being attached to two trees and will safety keep your dog within a designated area to prevent them from running off into other campsites or the forest. This will ensure that campers don't have to worry about their pet as they go about their business without the need to keep them tethered to one small area.

The Ruffwear 'Knot-a-Hitch' speaks to the increasing number of consumers who are taking to the great outdoors with their furry friend in tow for weekend adventures.
