The Saddle-Sandbag is designed for those situations when a limb needs to be held out securely without any load on it and standard sandbags are not suited to this purpose. The Saddle-Sandbag won't replace the ones you've already got, but they will do certain jobs a lot better.
There is no need to manipulate the sandbag to the desired shape. The weight is split between two bags joined by a broad central strap so the strap is placed round or over the limb or other body part. They can be shortened by wrapping the central section round either weighted bag.
The small sandbag has a total length of 50 cm and is 10 cm wide, with a 30 cm long central strap section. Each bag weighs 300g. The large has 600g end weights, a total length of 60 cm, and width of 19 cm, with a central strap section of 30 cm. Saddle-Sandbads are sold in pairs

Towelling dog drying coat
Dogrobes® dog drying coats are the original towelling drying coat for dogs, trusted by professionals since 2004. They avoid the use of Velcro which can catch in fur and longer ears, ultimately fills with fur, becoming less effective and snags on the coat during washing.
The drying coats are easy to fit after outdoor adventures, swimming, training, bathing or working. Designed to hang over the hindquarters and dry the back legs. They provide excellent warmth and comfort and are not just for wet dogs. The robes slip on and offset ties ensure superb coverage of underbelly and a snug fit for a simple, secure fit.
Dog robes dry quickly for re-use. Wash at 40° C (no Velcro to snag). Tumble dry on low.
Made in Britain from an innovative towelling fabric exclusive to Dogrobes®: 80% cotton, 20% polyester.
Why do I need a dog robe?
Wet fur is a poor insulator. Shaking does not remove all the moisture. Longer loops on the inside of this innovative fabric quickly wick away moisture and trap air and body heat to maintain the dog's body temperature and keep muscles warm. Ensuring your dog is warm and dry, particularly after exercise, reduces muscle stress, tension and injury. Older dogs with arthritis or joint issues will benefit significantly from the rapid drying and heat retention effect of these drying coats. If your dog likes to swim regardless of the outside temperature, these drying coats are a must.
Ideal for the journey home in the car after a wet, muddy walk, keeping your dog warm, drying them off and protecting the inside of the car all at the same time.
At home, when you come in from a wet walk, what happens before you can get the towel out – the wet, muddy shake. Popping the robe on immediately starts the drying process and protects surrounds from the shake off and subsequent dripping, wiping on rugs and the sofa!
