Re: The Nifty Canine Gadget Thread

Now my turn for a (sort of) gadget recommendation:

I've been looking for the perfect pair of dog walking gloves for, oh, about 25 years now.

I need something very thin and supple enough that I can pick a single piece of small kibble out of my treat bag, something with a friction surface on the fingers so that I can open a Robisack, and additionally they need to be toasty warm.

I've probably tried hundreds of gloves, including garden gloves (thin and supple but not warm enough) and cycling gloves (the warm ones are not supple enough) and silk glove liners (thin, supple, and warm, but no friction so can't open a Robisack without taking them off). Not really happy with any so far.

Taking gloves on and off is a fumble with two dogs, two leads, a clicker, one eye on the horizon, one eye looking behind, and one eye on the ground as I pick up.

So fellow cold weather dog walkers, what gloves do you use?
