Our Family Adventure with OneTigris: Dog Gear That Keeps Up with Real Life

As a family who loves the outdoors with our two pups, Kiki and Zamba, finding dog gear that actually stands up to both adventure and everyday life is no small task. Enter: OneTigris. We recently enjoyed a Sunday adventure with the whole family and …. spoiler alert: we were blown away.

Between our sassy Boston Terrier, Kiki and our powerful Rottweiler boy, Zamba, we need gear that’s not only stylish but seriously durable. From harnesses and leashes to travel-friendly beds and toys, OneTigris made this family outing smoother, safer, and a lot more fun.

The Harnesses: Comfort + Control

Let’s talk harnesses first. As any Rottweiler mom will know, they can be a bit of a tank on walks, but Zamba’s OneTigris harness held up beautifully. The fit was secure but comfortable, and the front-clip design gave us more control during our walk without restricting his movement. Not to mention the side pockets to store treats, poop bags or your car keys if need be! You can also add fun embellishments to stick on the side- of course we opted for the Rottweiler.

The Matching Leashes & Collars: Style Meets Strength

Okay, we’ll admit it—we love a good matching set. The collars and leashes looked great on both pups, but more importantly, they are built to last. No fraying, no awkward grips, and no slipping buckles. Both Kiki and Zamba felt secure and stylish. Kiki wears her pink collar and matching leash with pride.

Plus, Gia LOVED helping walk them with the soft padded leash handles. It became a team effort!

The Adventure Bed: Nap Time, Anytime

This one might be our favourite: the OneTigris portable raised dog bed. It folds up easily, is super lightweight- even Gia can carry it when it is made up! And gave an elevated spot to relax between activities or when one of the pups needed a short break. No wet grass, no dirty bellies—just chill vibes under the trees.

The Toys: Fetch Game Strong

We brought along a couple of OneTigris’ adventure balls. If you follow us over on Instagram then you’ll know just how ball obsessed Zamba is so these balls were a total hit with him! Tough enough to survive Zamba’s intense chew sessions, and light enough for Kiki to carry around like a prize. And fun enough for Gia to play fetch with her two best friends. 

Family-Approved Fun

OneTigris balls

What really stood out to us about OneTigris is how thoughtfully designed everything is. It’s not just dog gear—it’s family adventure gear. Every item added value to our outing, from the ease of packing to the peace of mind we had knowing our dogs were safe and comfortable.

Gia was able to join in every step of the adventure, holding leashes, throwing balls, and helping set up the dog bed. She loved being involved, and it turned into a full family bonding experience. We made memories that’ll last a lifetime—and took plenty of Instagram-worthy photos along the way.

Zamba’s First Gotcha Day

It’s Zamba’s first Gotcha Day and we couldn’t be more excited to celebrate our big baby bear in all his glory! In my biased opinion, there is nothing cuter than a Rottweiler puppy and wow Zamba was cute.

When we welcomed Zamba into our family a year ago today, we had recently lost our soul sister Zara. Zara was a Rottweiler too and she was the reason we knew we needed another needy Rottweiler in our lives. Zamba may have thought he had big paws to fill but it was important to us to let him know that he needed to just be himself and find his place within our family, which is of course was being needy but we wouldn’t change a thing! 

Zamba's first Gotcha Day

When you look beyond Zamba’s big size and striking looks, you get to discover a giant teddy bear. A teddy bear that wants to kiss you for hours and run around the house squeaking one of his many many balls because balls are life! 

So today we celebrate our bear Zamba. 

Zamba’s LickiMat Birthday Treat

I am using the LickiMat brand for no other reason than it is what I had available to buy at the time of doing Zamba’s birthday prep! There are many amazing brands out there that offer similar things to fill and create birthday treats like the one I have prepared for Zamba. 

Lickimat birthday dog treat

Ingredients

To create a filled LickiMat (or a brand of your choice) simply choose what your pup loves to eat. For Zamba I have chosen:

Raw chicken mince

Raw beef mince

Double cream plain yoghurt

Cottage cheese

Carrot rounds

Raw watermelon cut into shapes

Collagen Paws

Doggy treats and sprinkle to top it all

Plus some pet friendly peanut butter

Directions

To assemble and create your fun filled treat bowl, simply layer all your ingredients how you wish. I made balls of chicken mince and beef mince, I spread the yoghurt around the edges, I filled gaps with cottage cheese, I decorated with the carrots and watermelon then topped it all with star shaped doggy treats and drizzled pet friendly peanut butter over everything. Then I put it in the freezer over night. You can choose to either freeze the treat bowl or give it to your pup fresh- it is up to you and your pup 🙂
