Treat Yourself to a Pro Treat Bag from Hurtta

Hurtta, Hurtta Collection, Hurtta Pro Treat Bag, Dog Treat Bags

Every dog enthusiast needs an amazing treat bag and I've been searching for the best one for a long time. I think I might have found it! Today I have a really awesome treat bag to share with you! This is the Pro Treat Bag from Hurtta! This treat bag was originally designed and developed for professional dog trainers but I think it would be an amazing bag for any dog lover who's into training or dog sports. We were sent a Pro Treat Bag in exchange for an honest review.

The first thing I noticed about this bag is how stylish it looks. It looks more like a "dog purse" than a fanny pack. It is really well made, for heavy duty use but light enough that Zoe could pick it up and carry it around for photos. This is a high capacity treat bag and it can hold up to 17 ounces of treats!  You can even put sticky treats in there, although I generally try to keep mine in a ziploc bag so I don't have to wash the treat bag very often. The treat bag is machine washable, though!


The bag dimensions are 9x6 and it has a "clamshell" hinge opening for the main pocket. The hinge feels very sturdy. It's easy enough for a person to open or close it but the dogs can't get into the bag and steal treats at all. Zoe is a master mind at getting into stuff and if she can't open it, your dog probably won't be able to either, although I wouldn't leave it around to test that theory out. The outer shell is made with that same tough Houndtex fabrics that all the other Hurtta gear is made with. I can really tell that this bag was built to last.

The Pro Treat Bag also has 3M reflectors just like all the other Hurtta gear so you will be visible and safe if you're training or even walking dogs in the dark.


The bag has a velcro close front pocket with a slot for waist bags and it also has a zipper closure on the back for your keys or other items. They've also included a fireman's snap hook on the side for clipping on extra things. I really like the velcro pocket in the front. I've been stashing my camera's lens cap in there along with my poop bags. I haven't lost anything out of it yet! I can tell the velcro they used is very high quality. The back zipper pocket is pretty great, too but it's a little small which is the only thing I'd change about the bag.


You can either use the sturdy nylon belt that comes with the bag or you can clip it to your pants with the clip. I have to say this is probably the best clip on bag I've ever used. My other clip on bags have cut into my skin. This one is smooth and it doesn't hurt me. The belt that comes with it is super adjustable and I really like it for when I'm wearing a heavy coat in winter. I just clip it on around me with the belt instead of using the plastic clip.


A good treat bag is worth it's weight in gold and this is a great bag. It's very well made, it's holds a ton of treats and various other times. It's also doing really well in the horrible rainy weather we have been having! I really like it. I'm thinking about getting a second one for my husband!

The Pro Treat Bag comes in various colors and I would definitely recommend checking it out!

If the Pro Treat Bag is too big for you, Hurtta does make a smaller one and you can find it here: Hurtta Junior Treat Bag

You can find retailers for Hurtta by going here: Hurtta Stockists and I would also recommend checking Hurtta out and following them on facebook.

The Best Treat Bag! Dog Training


Happy December everyone! Today I'm joining Dachshund Nola, Cascadian Nomads and Tenacious Little Terrier for the Positive Pet Training Blog Hop! This months theme is "Rewards" but they welcome any positive reinforcement posts. 

As a Reward-Based trainer, I like to have treats on me most of the time. I prefer being able to reward my dogs whenever I need to and the possibilities for training situations are endless because I take them to lots of places. (One day, we found a random set of dog agility equipment at a park!!) Using treats is the easiest and most convenient way to do that.
