20 Best Dogs For Long Distance Running (2023 Updated)

Just wanted to pass on some information about the quality of your products. I spend a lot of time training and handling my pointer and brittany for horseback field trialing, falconry, and upland game hunting and started with the Sport Hunter 1825 several years ago.

Two years ago, I won the Pro Hunter 2525 at a Shooting Dog event. While running dogs in Wyoming in December 2018, I accidently lost the 2525 transmitter on a 7 mile loop in about a foot of snow. Even though I retraced my tracks, I was unable to find the transmitter, but I saved the loop on my GPS device and hoped to find it in the spring.

We had a hard winter out here with sub-zero temperatures and a “big” snow year and then a very wet spring. Well, I was finally able make it back out in early May, 6 months after losing the transmitter, and found it about 5 miles from my starting point.

After being exposed to freezing temperatures, snow, rain, and sun. I dusted it off, plugged it in and was using it in a couple hours just like it had been stored inside for the past 6 months. Just want to say YOU ALL have a great product.

Keep up the good work and thanks again for donating to field trial clubs.

Battery life is excellent. Have had the collar for three months now training my dog twice a week with the collar being on for three hours at a time. Haven’t had to charge either the remote or the receiver once.

Great quality, suited well for every dog no matter the size or level of pressure they may need to get a proper correction.

I have had the unit for a few years now and I do not have a single complaint. I use mine for training large breeds in obideance/compliance. The remote rarely ever needs a charge, often 2-3 charges on the collar then maybe the remote needs a charge.

The unit is very strong, I have rarely had to go beyond beep/vibrate. My dogs have never had to receive a correction, the collar on them simply puts them in a focused and alert frame of mind. This unit is by far the best product for the money.

You and your best friend will have many great memories with this product. Thank you for a solid, non-plastic, overall fantastic product SportDog!.

There is nothing like the feel of a well conditioned and broken in leather leash. My wife and I still have two 38-year-old 6-foot 7/8″ wide leather leashes that are on the heavy side, but are both still in service.

We had rope leashes for our last two Golden Retrievers but I had to wear gloves walking them as they would frequently lunge at squirrels and rabbits. After memories of those rope burns I swore for our next dog I would return to a leather leash.

We just acquired our sixth Golden Retriever puppy and decided to spoil him–and ourselves–a bit with several new leashes. Because our current pup comes from a lineage of hunting and working dogs we settled on the Standard Obedience Leash line primarily for the quality and feel of the latigo leather with a very reasonable weight.

We have a 4-foot 1/2-inch wide Standard Obedience dedicated for general training purposes. For everything else we have a 4-foot 3/4″wide, a 5-foot 3/4″ wide and a 6-foot 3/4″ wide — all Standard Obedience Leashes — that we can select from depending on where we’re going and what we’re doing with our pup.

These are solid quality, functional leashes and very affordable. I’m not the biggest fan of biothane leashes but we really like the 4-foot Super Grip Biothane Leash for wet/damp conditions and to have on hand as a general backup leash.

But if I could only have one leash, I’d have to go with leather.

I ordered one of these to test out a 3’ leash before committing to another one. Paid a little more than what I could find elsewhere because of the implied quality of a professional brand. The first leash that came validated my decision.

I ordered a second one as I was satisfied with the first one and the build quality is way worse than what I originally got. Pockmarks in the finish, stitching is off, and there is a notable thin spot in the middle of the leash.

I have two dogs a German Shepherd/Mastiff and a Lab and now have to be careful to use the weaker leash with the lab. Really frustrating as I know the quality should be there.

This is my second one that I have purchased from here. This time I ordered a wider one. These leashes are absolutely the best. I have a very large GSD who is my service dog and we do tracking. These leashes take one **** of a beating with me.

Lol, through swamps, snow, sand, salt, all types of weather we go through. My first leash I bought over 3 years ago and it’s in great shape. I highly recommend giving these leather leashes a try! Totally worth every penny!.

I bought this approximately two months ago and have not been particularly pleased with it. I find the buttons and the display unwieldly and very small making them difficult to see. The instruction manual that comes with the product does not explain the use of each of the features, meaning you have to try and navigate through Garmin’s whole system to try and find a more helpful manual.

Within a month the antennae fell off of the handheld device somewhere on a hike, to never be found again. When I contacted Garmin, I was told that the antennas don’t fall off. Given that mine is missing, it seemed an odd thing to claim.

They then told me I could purchase another one from their website – which as far as I can tell, you can’t. The handheld device is by far the biggest issue though – it is not rechargable (how is that even possible?!?!?) and sucks up batteries like there’s no tomorrow.

In two months I have spent $40 on batteries. Regular batteries are basically pointless and lithium ones only last for about three weeks of use (2 hours a day x 3 days a week). If I had any idea that this was going to cost me SO MUCH extra money in addition to the already expensive price tag, I would definitely have purchased a different system.

While the system has many neat features and does exactly what it is supposed to do (find my dog), I overall am highly dissatisfied with this purchase.

I bought this and it worked great during training until the day of the real thing. Sent out 2 dogs out and as soon as the dogs got 2kms away, it kept saying we lost communication with them. Our gps is not working, will not hook up to our collars, constantly loses communication and our dogs are now nowhere to be found.

We have lost our dogs because of this tracker. Would never suggest it to anyone.

The item itself seems pretty good, it just doesn’t work real well for me. The belt doesn’t go very small. There should definitely be multiple sizes or at least the size range should be listed in the description.

If my hips were any smaller I wouldn’t be able to use it; it doesn’t come close to fitting around my waist. Also the leash is pretty heavy. I have a large dog so not a problem for him, but it wouldn’t work for a little dog.

If I did it again, I would go for a shorter leash too. I’m short, so between the heaviness of the leash and the fact that the belt hangs down on my hips the leash is almost dragging on the ground even with my big chocolate lab.

I end up holding it up whenever he decides to walk right next to me which defeats the purpose of a hands free leash. I do like the metal clip attachments.

I would have given this item 5 stars, but I’m not really fond of the stretchy part closest to the pooch. But this may be as my puppy is still in training. I would have rather had the item without it and instead had that part be adjustable like the waist section.

Having the additional loop by the dog’s neck is also handy. Seems-well made and just LOVE having my hands free, especially when on “pick up” patrol.

So I just decided to rescue a 3 year old pointer, had no idea what I was getting myself into! Well we are only a week in and he need a lot of exercise ALOT! So he goes everywhere with me. I am a mom of 2 small kids and i raise rabbits.

So i need to be able to have my hands free at all times to catch small children who like to wonder off or to care for rabbits. So decided to give this a chance and it hasnt let me down yet! I cant stress how great it is.

The dog stays close yet we have just enough room. I ride my bike and he does great keeping up and not going to close or to far!! He is still under control around the rabbits yet able to check them out.

Most importantly being a mom and dog own i can pick up my 1 year old and not be all tangled up in the leash! Its worth every bit of money!.

This Aerial Dog Run was fairly easy to install between 2 trees, and works very well. I would note that installation goes a lot easier if you have someone to help you with the line positioning & tensioning as you climb the ladder to install the mounts on the trees/poles.

This product was higher priced than most similar options I’ve seen from other vendors, but I needed one quickly and Tractor Supply was the nearest place to get one. I’d recommend for its quality, as long as the price is okay for you.

website showed two different sets of 3 small stuffed animals, of which I got two HUGE stuffed animals that are bigger than the chihuahua they were bought for. i was expecting 6 small stuffed toys and got 2 that I can not use.

I have a 65 lb Siberian Husky who made it his personal mission to get out of his backyard fence everyday while I was at work. I bought this to keep him contained until I could “husky proof” my privacy fence.

He is a very strong and determined dog, but this set up kept him contained every day until I could complete the fence. It wasn’t that difficult to put up, but if possible, an extra set of hands would make it much easier.

I love Tailwind’s product line! This is my second season using them for mountain biking. This fuel really provides consistent and solid energy over long endurance rides without any negative effects on my stomach or digestion.

I use it for any rides over an hour and have used it up to 6-8 hours in a day. I really like the recovery drink as well. The rice protein seems to digest quickly and effectively. On my travel rides, which typically include two rides a day at 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours each, I like the build back between rides that I get from the recovery drink.

The endurance fuel mixes well without being clumpy or too granular, and never clogs my bottles. The taste varieties are on point. For the record, I am a 53 year-old, 230 lb occasional endurance racer (True Grit 50, The Grizzly, and 25 Hours of Frog Hollow mostly), but I prefer travel rides to Utah doing mostly long days of blue, black, and double black tech lines on the mesas.

I will be doing the 25 Hours of Frog Hollow as a duo for my third time this year and will rely on a consistent stream of Tailwind Endurance, Tailwind Recovery, and some pickles, pasta, and PBJ to keep rolling.

Also, customer service has always been top notch!.

I have been experimenting with several different brands of hydration products over the summer here in Florida. I have sampled many different products. I tried each product for 3 weeks, varying the amounts based on the mileage, and effort of the workout.

The trial period included temp runs, speedwork, and longer distances + 13 miles. We are 100% sold on the Tailwind line. We have been using Tailwind Endurance Fuel for 5 weeks now. I have been able to move away from gels, chews, and other solid foods and fuel my runs solely on the Tailwind Endurance Fuel without bonking.

I have done so well with no stomach or digestive issues, which in the past has been a problem for me. I am able to maintain the energy needed to complete long distance runs and have had ZERO side effects.

We have also been trying the TW Active Hydration line for shorter efforts, or a gym workout. TW is super portable and easy to mix. I carry it on my hydration belt and the quantity is based on mileage.

The TW company does a great job at breaking down how much you should mix based on a number of variables.

I love the lightly sweet, lightly salty flavor of all of the flavors. It’s nice to be able to sip as I run, without having to stop and eat a gel. It’s a constant drip of calories. I have two flasks on the front of my vest.

One is clear water and one is a stick of Tailwind with about 12 oz of water. So it is concentrated. But I’ll do a sip of TW, then a sip of clear water. I’ve really struggled with GI distress and consuming enough calories during runs over the half marathon distance.

I used to just sip some water every few miles. Having TailWind has enabled me to fuel for runs up to the marathon length. And I plan to have it with me during my first Ultra. Besides the convenience of the stick packs and the GI comfort, I love the flavor options.

And the option is add caffeine. It gives me something to look forward to, when choosing which stick packs I want to take. So they make it fun. I also bring TW for hikes, kayaking trips, camping and even when I know I’ll be logging a lot of steps.

I brought it to the UK and Ireland, just as a source of calories as I walked many, many steps. Lastly, I also find the combination of calories and electrolytes help when I’m feeling sick. After my second Covid booster I had an awful hangover feeling.

Endurance mix made a huge difference. I had Covid while in the UK and drinking some TailWind really helped me feel better. Thanks TW, for enabling my adventures!.

I think the cable that runs from the overhead line to my dog weighs more than my dog. I couldn’t find any that were for smaller dogs, but this mentioned that it was for small dogs up to large dogs. The buckle itself is very large compared to what I use on my dogs leash.

Unfortunately since the pulley is part of the lead that attaches to the dog, there is no way to change it. I had to run similar to this before but was able to clip a different diameter lead on to the pulley itself and hoped that this would be the same.

It is a very heavy duty system that would work very well for a large dog but not for my chihuahua.

This went up so easily and works perfect in our yard. The latch to the collar/harness has started to wear off it’s protective coating some but that is from us leaving it dragging in the mud. (We don’t have much sun for grass to grow at our house.

) The only downfall to this item: our dog would rather be off leash with us or on the deck. She’s a puppy so she still gets confused about the lead and gets it wrapped all around herself. Obviously not a manufacturer’s issue.

Thankfully, my pup doesn’t need to be tied out much, but when she does this is perfect for her. It gives her room to be on the porch, or to go and see what’s going on beyond that. She has a range of freedom with it that she didn’t have with a relatively short tie out.

My only complaint – and I’ve only had this for a couple of weeks – is that the hook that goes to her collar is already starting to not open all the way like it should; apparently the metal used isn’t very weather resistant, even though it is on the porch, rather than directly in the weather.

Probiotics work on a very individual basis and I’ve had to find ones that work for me – same for my dog. It took trying a couple brands until I tried this one. My dog had severe gastrointestinal problems coming to me as a rescue.

After multiple vet visits and no resolution with their attempts and other probiotics, I put him on these along with my vet recommendation of a generic Prilosec. His entire gut has reset due to this and he’s never had diarrhea again.

It took about a month but I will never take him off these. He gets two every night and the Prilosec wrapped in cheese before bed. He loves his treat and the change has been amazing for gastric reflux and diarrhea.

Highly recommend.

I’ve been trying out different digestive supplements for my 1yr old GSD. After trying the powder type of this product I though the chews would be more convenient. Her stool quickly became very soft (which was the opposite effect I was going for).

I give her another week trial but there was zero improvement. I haven’t changed anything else about her diet. super disappointed in these.

Liked the idea of these, that they are organic and natural. At first our dog was hesitant about taking them. We played a game just to get him to eat these. Then after 4 days, he vomited what he had eaten.

No other issues, the same food he has been having, always gave him the vitamin after eating. He does not have a sensitive stomach. He’s an older, 15 pound rescue so the vitamin route was an attempt to compensate for anything that might have been lacking in his diet before we adopted him.

Now we have to look for another supplement.

Like the description says the leash is made of soft rubber. This is great for hiking in the great outdoors and in the rain, but doesn’t work out so when when used with young dogs new to the leash. In seven days my 10 week old puppy has already taken chunks out of the leash and put bite marks in the lower portion just from catching it in her mouth during our walks.

Wilderdog is obviously aware of this potential problem as the warranty explicitly states “No Chewing!”.

I’ve always been using a leather leash because I find myself confortabile with it and it has a good grip, but in the outdoor it gets dirty. In this waterproof leash I find all the good qualities of a leather one, plus when it gets dirty it can be washed simply.

It has become quickly a top leash for me. I wish it was longer, It would be perfect.

I bought it for my 30 lb. puppy but she is too short in length right now so it’s hard to keep in the proper position. It worked great when I could keep it on her chest, and I am sure it will be perfect when she is full-grown.

Very easy to use well made product! Our dog has responded very well to this leash. She used to pull like a horse and as soon as she feels any pressure she slows down. Great product and made in the USA!.

I’v got a two year old who has been pulling me around forever. spikey collars, harnesses, choke collars, nothing worked until the EZ Trainer. and it’s so easy to put on and take off! Gruffyn doesn’t even try to pull now!.

This belt/ leash is of the upmost quality. I have a 50 lb hunting dog mix breed, Boykin spaniel, chocolate lab, and various other hound type breeds. Needless to say when she gets a scent she becomes very one track minded.

Therefore, power walking/running can be a bit hair raising. I never have to worry with this belt/leash. It is so sturdy and strong. The middle of lead is a bungee to absorb quick pulls. There is also a padded separation at top to put hand through for a sturdy grip.

There are plenty of pockets to put cell phone, keys, poop bags, etc. there is also a place for water bottle with an adjustable strap to hold in place. There are D rings on either side to hook lead to accommodate left or right positions.

The hardware is confident inspiring, very sturdy and strong. There are so many features it’s hard to describe them all. I can’t say enough about this superb lead. Well worth the investment.

We don’t use this for running. We use it when one person is walking 2 dogs solo. We have 2 dogs, one of whom is not the best walker. We usually attach the dogs to a leash splitter but then the better behaved dog does not appreciate being tugged about by the other one.

We don’t like handling two long leashes. Enter the belt leash! Put one on the belt leash, the other on a regular leash, and problem solved. The belt leash is kinda short so for my 6’2″ husband walking a short corgi, there’s not much slack.

I love the poop bag holder.

I haven’t actually taken this out for a test walk yet (I don’t run. That’s just not gonna happen. !) But I have tried it on and adjusted it and fiddled around with it a little. I think it will work really well.

There’s a good bit of adjustment for the waist size. For reference, I wear size 6 in most jeans, and it’s adjusted almost all the way in on me (and I wear things closer to my hips, though I did put this a little tighter/higher).

The leash is a bungee style and can clip on either side, so you can figure out how to line everything up and move it around. I look forward to trying it out when the weather is a little more enjoyable.

My dog Bailey had the watermelon color last year. Its great quality, and the color is awesome! We got many complements about it last year, and I referred them to Ren\’s for it. So I\’m buying this collar in a new color.

Will be buying the matching collar too.

Bought this with the matching collar. Am a huge fan of the colours. Looks great and love the length. Material is pretty decent. The latter is only on the one side. Wish it was on both, would be a lot nicer.

Great quality. Second leash we have owned from RC pets. Only got replacement to change up color/pattern. Arrived on time.

I found it extremely difficult to unfankle the lead as it was beautifully wrapped. My rescue Tibetan Terrier requires to learn recall and this lead is perfect for that. We are having some success in allowing her some freedom.

I can be in the garden and she can roam. I can call her and gently pull her in rewarding her for coming. The one snag is she digs when she roams in my large garden but you cannot have it all.

Good product, my pooch is just on 6 .5 stone in wieght and I find that the line holds him fine , maybe a larger clasp but in general the product does what it is designed for .

Fabulous for exercising my puppy in a small area and in the garden. Great for burning off energy before training and as a reward afterwards

Ordered elsewhere and the order was cancelled then found it cheaper at My Pet Warehouse. Arrived as described, is a great length and comfortable to hold. Matches my pooch’s collar

Great length and width. Bought the matching collar. Such a lovely colour pink and looks great on my chocolate Spoodle. Easy to order and fairly quick delivery!

great quality. bright and colourful. Looks great on my black dog.

Our 5 month old Labrador/Berner Sennen mix loves this food and is healthy, with good stool and lovely shiny fur. We take care that she does not grow too fast to avoid later bone and joint problems and I believe Bewi Junior supports that.

After consulting with our Tierärtzin, I do feed her less than is indicated on the packaging.

TranslateShow in original languageMein Hund Luke geniet das Futter BEWI DOG Sport nun schon seit 2 Jahren ausschlielich. Seine Spaziergnge geniet er nun mit Wohlwollen. Er jagt ber die Wiesen und luft dem geworfenen Stock mit Elan hinterher.

Sein Fell – er ist eine Mischung zwischen Deutschen Schferhund und Labrador – ist seitdem weich und sehr glnzend. Vorher wurde er mit Pedigree Hundefutter oder mit Purina Pro Plan Futter gefttert. Beim Fellwechsel war sein Fell struppig und stumpf.

Seine Geh-Laune war sehr eingeschrnkt, obwohl er schon immer ein sehr schlanker Hund war. Seit der Ftterung mit BEWI DOG Sport begleitet er mich bei meinen Fahrradtouren und ist anschlieend lange noch nicht so aus gelaugt, wie vor 2 Jahren.

Ich kann die Ftterung mit BEWI DOG Sport nur empfehlen.

TranslateShow in original languageDas BEWI High-Energy Futter wurde von meinen Hunden direkt angenommen. Sie erhalten es jetzt seit ca. einem Jahr und das Fell ist insgesamt glnzender und dichter geworden.

Die Ausdauer lsst nicht zu wnschen brig. 20 km tglich sind kein Problem und der Hund scheint sehr gut versorgt. Allerdings erhalten meine Hunde auch Barfing und selbstgemachtes Futter, nie Dosenfra. Das BEWI Futter ist auch von der Gre der einzelnen Futterbrocken prima auch fr “schlingende” Hunde geeignet, da jeder Brocken erst einzeln zerbissen werden muss, bevor der Hund den nchsten nehmen kann.

Wer seinem Arbeitshund, sei es Spr- oder Suchhund, etwas Gutes tun will, liegt bei diesem Futter meiner Meinung nach genau richtig. Weiterempfehlung? – ABSOLUT!.
