DogFit launch British
manufactured canicross kit
Canicross experts, DogFit, have announced the
launch of their latest running waist belt and lines, designed and produced
entirely in the UK.
Canicross is the sport of hands-free, off-road
running with a dog. It’s a fun and social activity that’s enjoyed all year
round, a great way to get fit and one of the fastest growing sports in the UK.
A sport that’s enjoyed all year round, canicross offers an
ideal way for dog owners to meet their ongoing fitness goals in a fun and
social way.
DogFit are one of the first canicross equipment
sellers in the UK to design and develop their own branded range of kit, from
their new and exclusive waist belt to their collection of bungee lines –
perfect for fun, social runs or for taking part in more formal events.
The new belt is lightweight, practical and
durable, and features a large enough pocket for storage of a mobile phone and
keys.
The new range of DogFit bungee lines feature a handle at both ends. This has been specially designed to enable owners to have more control when needed and in a safe way for their dogs.
DogFit have invested in developing a high-quality material
for the new kit, whilst keeping it lightweight and comfortable. It’s also very affordable,
making it an ideal piece of canicross equipment for both novices and
experienced participants.
Gail Walker, co-founder of DogFit, said that
the new line of canicross equipment was the result of a long and careful
development process:
"We've listened to our customers and
considered what people want from canicross equipment to develop the new kit.
We've worked closely with our manufacturer in the UK, a process which has been
in development over the last twelve months. We went to the factory and went
through the adjustments and design with the manufacturers. We had complete
control over our products, and we've spent a huge amount of time testing the
product to ensure it’s a high-end product and right for our customers."
The new kit is now available, just in time to
help get you and your dog fit and healthy
at the start of 2018 and throughout the year. It includes the DogFit canicross waist belt – an adjustable and comfortable belt that sits low, helping
to avoid injuries to the back when a dog pulls – and a DogFit canicross line.
Both are also available within their popular Starter Kit, which is competitively priced at £95.99.
Ginetta George, DogFit co-founder, says that as
the company has continued to expand, they have made a conscious decision to
focus on products that are made in Britain:
"As a British company, we strive to
sell canicross products that are manufactured in the UK as much as possible.
We're a young British business and know the importance of supporting other
small UK businesses.”
Ginetta continues “With the ever-increasing popularity of canicross, the company has gone from strength to strength."
DogFit was founded by dog lovers Gail and
Ginetta, whose experience as canicrossers and businesswomen combined enabled
them to build a successful new business model, providing specialised products
and canicross classes through their Certified DogFit Canicross Trainers.
