A few weeks ago, I shared our tips for cold weather dog walking.
One of the things I recommended was get a pair of Grippy Gloves. I hate it when you’re all warm and some dog uses the bathroom. I hate pulling off my gloves to try to get a pick up bag out.
Sure, you could get an expensive pair of Northface ETIP Gloves, with the sticky fingers, but let’s face it. I am WAY TOO cheap for that. I’m sure the gloves are lovely and cozy and I bet they work great, but $50 is a tad steep for something I’m just going to loose in a week anyways. You know what I mean.
Grippy Gloves are my solution.
The winter’s here in BC are pretty mild, so a cheap pair of dollar store gloves are more than adequate for me, but you could use this trick on any pair of gloves you like. This is a great project for those tiny humans in your life!
