Guide to Belt Bags for Dog Walking

An afternoon stroll with your four-legged bestie can be as long or as short as you have time for—but don’t let your readiness be the reason you have to turn around. A belt bag can help keep all of your things safe and organized while keeping your hands free.

For some (your dog included), getting outside for a walk can be the highlight of our day. The time can be a way for the two of you, or the whole family, to get in some extra steps. Maybe you run some errands along the way, or maybe you go for a walk and hop into the car after with your dog for the next adventure. Whatever your plans are, The Pack can keep you ready for anything.

With The Pack, you may be able to bring more than you ever dreamed of, enhancing a nice long walk with your dog. Waste bags, a water bottle, a travel drinking bowl for your dog, sunglasses, chapstick, cell phone, earbuds, keys, hand sanitizer, a snack, dog treats, and a tennis ball are just a few of the things you can store in The Pack for a walk with your dog. We know what you’re thinking: it’s only a belt bag, how will all of that fit? The Pack is designed for functionality and style. Here’s our best advice on a belt bag for dog walking.

How to Choose the Best Fanny Pack for Dog Walking

Best dog walking belt bag qualities

Comfort and style: Dog walks can range from short strolls near your house to long outdoor hikes. Choosing a belt bag you can take on any walk with your dog replaces the need for more than one belt bag, especially if it’s versatile and stylish. Like every cool dog mom or dog dad, you’ll want to look the part, so you’ll need a belt bag that’s chic yet comfortable and functional. The Pack is lightweight with an adjustable strap (up to 60 inches), designed to fit just right on the body and be worn crossbody or around the waist. To elevate your athleisure game, try our vegan leather Cream or Cognac Pack, or for a sportier look, try our polyester Grey or Chambray Pack. For a fun fashion statement, try our polyester Snow Leopard Pack or velvet Sable Pack. All are durable with the same practical features, but we left choosing the right look up to you. Have fun with it!
Space to store dog & personal items: Packing for you and your dog calls for more room. Afterall, for some of us, our dog is the equivalent of a child. When you think of a belt bag, you might think of a small zippered bag that’s worn around your waist, over your shoulder, or crossbody. However, as the trend continues to grow, belt bags and fanny packs have become so much more than that. For many, they are the go-to, grab-and-go accessory to store belongings. The Pack has a zippered pouch on the front and back, allowing for easy access to items you reach for often on a dog walk like your phone or waste bags. It even has an outer D-ring perfect for hanging waste bags or travel sanitizer. The interior zippered pocket is large enough to store most things you would ever think of for going on a walk with your dog. To bring it all together, we’ve included a hideable full-size water bottle holder that can also hold essentials like sunscreen or bug spray.
Hands-free for easy access: The Pack can be worn crossbody or around the waist or hips. Walk your dog with your hands free and everything you need at your fingertips. Storage features like zippered pockets on the front and back of the exterior, an interior zippered pocket, an outer D-ring attachment, and elastic strap for keys allow you to keep your things organized for easy access.
