Dog ownership rates in western countries have increased to between 40 and 45% in 2017.  There are almost 90 million pet dogs in US alone.  California, New York, Florida and Tennessee have all recently relaxed laws regarding pets in restaurants.  With increased numbers and more dog friendly places to visit, there are more dogs in the public space than ever before. 

Community planners and dog lifestyle advocates from New York to New Zealand are realizing the benefits of a uniformly dog friendly society.  Hundreds of neighborhoods world-wide have become puppy paradises, where dogs are not only tolerated but they are encouraged! 

Business owners in dog friendly neighborhoods are realizing the added benefit of new customers frequenting their establishment with dogs.  Astute business leaders in hospitality and retail are now marketing directly to dog owners.  Whole communities are being designed and outfitted with pets in mind.

In many of these dog sanctuaries, you will notice funky little dog hitches mounted around town.  Doghook Inc., a San Diego startup is pioneering this dog friendly revolution by offering simple, effective and attractive canine hitches. “Doghooks,” aptly named, allow dog owners to quickly and safely secure dogs when they need an extra hand. 

Every dog owner knows that managing leashes while performing daily tasks or while eating can be challenging.  These heavy-duty dog hitches are not just for veterinarians and groomers any more.  Making your community a puppy paradise has never been easier, check out www.Doghook.com.
