Why We Picked These
Small dogs have different gear needs than their larger counterparts. The Puppia harness is essential because small breeds are prone to tracheal collapse — a collar can be genuinely dangerous. Wellness CORE Small Breed uses tiny kibble and higher calorie density because small dogs have faster metabolisms per pound of body weight. The Sherpa carrier is an investment that opens up your world — it's airline-approved and well-ventilated, making it the go-to for small dog travel. And don't skip the X-Small KONG — enrichment is just as important for small dogs, but standard-sized toys are frustrating when they can't hold them.
