Porch
Dogs
Most of these porches are in subdivisions. The dog does not know the difference, and neither does the weather. Everything on this aisle has been through a Southern summer at somebody's house.

Beds & bedding
Sorted by what we'd buy again
If you buy one thing on this page
The chew-proof
porch bed
$42
OURS · SHOPIFY
Waxed canvas, a zipper you can actually replace, and a cover that goes in a normal washing machine. Two summers on JT's porch and the seams held — which is more than the $300 one managed.
What it beat
A $300 orthopedic bed that split along the piping by August.
Who it's wrong for
An old dog with bad hips. Get foam, not canvas.
ELEVATED COT
Elevated mesh cot
$34
Six inches of air is worth ten degrees in July.
DIRECT
FOAM BED
Old-dog foam bed
$68
The one time we say spend the money.

BLANKET
Truck-seat blanket
$19
Printed by us. Holds a shocking amount of hair.

The pick
Brass-hardware
webbing collar
$24
+ $6 engraved
Plastic buckles get brittle in the sun and let go at the worst possible moment. Brass doesn't. We sew these, we engrave the tags in the shop, and the whole thing costs less than the boutique nylon one.
The rest of the rack
Engraved brass tag
Deep-cut, so it's still readable in year three.
OURS
$12
LEAD
Six-foot leather lead
Softens up by the second week. Outlasts the dog.
OURS
$38
HARNESS
No-pull harness
For the dog that walks you, not the reverse.

$31
REFLECTIVE
Reflective night collar
If your street has no sidewalk, buy this one.

We don't sell this one
Anything with a dose on the label, ask your vet. Not us.
We sell pans, pads, rope and canvas. We don't sell medicine, and we're not going to pretend to know what your dog needs. That's a conversation with somebody who went to school for it — and the directory will find you one open right now.
Bowls & feeders
Nothing here is plasticSTEEL BOWL
Weighted steel bowl
$14
The $14 one is fine. It won't skate across the concrete and it won't blow off the step.
DIRECT
SLOW FEEDER
Slow-feed insert
$16
For the dog that eats a full cup in nine seconds and then regrets it.
DIRECT
Stoneware water crock
$29
Heavy enough to stay put, cool enough that the water isn't warm by noon.

Feeding pads
The floor under the bowlRibbed rubber mat
Catches the slop, hoses off on the porch rail, and lays flat again in the sun.
$18
Raised-lip silicone tray
The lip is the whole product. Water stays on the tray instead of under the door.
$22
Woven seagrass padOURS
Looks like something instead of a gym mat. Shake it out on the steps.
$26
Galvanized boot tray
Sold for muddy boots. Works better than anything sold for dogs. Half the price, too.
$24
Ours —
made, not resold
Almost everything on this page is somebody else's product that we happen to trust. These three aren't. They're made in small runs, they sell out, and they're the only things here where the money comes to us directly.
CANVAS BED
Waxed canvas porch bed
$68
Nine ounces of waxed duck over a foam core. Hose it, stand it up, forget it. This is the $40-beats-$300 argument, built.
LEATHER COLLAR
Harness leather collar
$42
Cut from one strip, solid brass, stamped with your number. It will outlast the dog and probably the porch.
FEED SCOOP
Stamped steel feed scoop
$19
One piece, no seam to rust out. The handle is bent to hang on a nail, which is where it belongs.
