PetSafe Dog Treat Pouch Sport, Black, Standard, 7.5 in L x 6.5 in H

Last year, I purchased a bag-style treat bag with cinch string and while that worked well, I didn't realize how much better this one until I tried it out. Since misplacing the bag, I was very content to use my jacket pockets which were large enough to easily and quickly get treats. Now that the weather is warmer though, I found I needed something better than my shirt or pants pocket. And while I thought this treat pouch was on the expensive side (at least in my mind), I'm really glad I got it. It makes dispensing treats so much easier. For the rest of the review, I'll do a series of question and answers. What was wrong with the pants or shirt pocket? Most of my pants pockets, while large on the inside, don't allow the kind of quick treat retrieval needed for extensive training. It became difficult to grab a treat especially if there was something else in the pocket. As for the shirt pocket, let's just say that any time I leaned down Nova got a "jackpot" treat. If you liked the old bag-style, why not get another one? It was fine, but the main reason I got it was because it was cheap (I think maybe $5). I couldn't find it again for the same price and this one got tons of good reviews, so I gave it a try. One thing I didn't like about the bag style is that it didn't close very fast or easily and so sometimes treats would fall out if I bent over to pick up a ball or something. Why is this product awesome? Almost everything about this product seems well thought out not just for treats, but as a small "go" bag for a quick trip with your dog. it's got plenty of space for treats (even two compartments) and a few other spots for a phone, poop bags, keys, and whatever else you might need except a water bottle (and that would just be too bulky). What would you change about this product? The only thing I sometimes struggle with is the divider for the "yummy" and "yummier" treats. It's velcro which is fine but can be a bit cumbersome if you're trying to switch between both frequently. But this feature was a bonus that I didn't realize how nice it would be anyways, so it's not a big deal. I've found it particularly useful for training outside, I can have a brightly colored treat like for tossing on the ground and regular dark colored treats for when I give them by hand. Would you buy this product again? Absolutely. The wide opening that stays open when you need treats and stays closed to prevent falling treats works perfectly. Everything else is a bonus.

We have two large dogs and go through a lot of treats. I work from home and have one on me every waking hour. We ended up buying three different treat bags from Amazon. Here is one consumer’s assessment: EZY Treat ($26.99): main compartment with hinge, but this broke and the pouch had to be replaced (the seller was great on the return, but they did not have my color in stock, so still waiting on it). Five other pockets as well. The zippered one in front could and should be bigger (there is plenty of pouch real estate on the front). My cell phone will not even fit. I am yet to find a use for the three pockets on the belt, due to their small size. I tried twice to have these be used for poop bags, but not worth the hassle. The “hidden pocket” is way on the small side (won’t fit my cell or wallet). In summary, one big pocket which has known issues with the hinge, and five smaller ones which are way small (cell phones and key chains are not as small as they used to be, I guess). The product does have a padded belt, but it makes the pouch come across as “bulky”. (Suggest to lose the insignia on the pouch.) Guardian Gear ($16.27): main compartment with hinge has shown no issues, compared to EZY Treat. There is a small velcro pocket on the front which looks like it want to hold a cell phone, but from personal experience, it is a good way to lose one (when you bend over, things fall out as the pocket is small and the velcro doesn’t catch for anything bigger than tiny). Please see the picture on the web site. It shows a cell phone in the front pocket with the velcro not catching (nice advertisement of a design flaw). The zippered pocket on the back of the pouch wants to be used, but for what? Too small for a cell phone, wallet, or keys. There is unused pouch real estate on both the front and back, so this could be a much better product with bigger pockets on both sides. (Nice job to keep an insignia off the product.) Petsafe ($10.16): I purchased this one last, as it was the lowest price, and was not expecting much, but wanted to try it as it advertised a bigger second pocket. The second pocket in front of the hinged one is large enough (and with velcro closure) to carry my cell phone, small wallet, keys, gum, sharpie, etc. I don’t quite get the third pocket at the bottom of the hinged one, which does have a velcro closure. Is the intent of this to hold “special” treats? I essentially don’t use it. I have well over 1000 hours of wear time on the product, and the efficiency of the design and durability continue to hold up. (One wish is to have an all-black product with no insignia. My kids give me a hard time when I am always wearing this, so the more neutral the better!) In my hands, after mega hours of use (with the exception of EZY Treat as the hinge was broken), based on the design, functionality, and durability of the products, the price ordering shown above should be reversed, and I would pay the higher price to get what is actually the least expensive option. Life is good for the customer on this one!

This is my third PetSafe treat pouch. I've been using them for more than 10 years. I've tried lots of different kinds of treat bags, always coming back to this one. Here's what I like: **SPRING OPENING -- The spring hinges are easy to pop open, keep the bag open and snap shut with just a nudge. I love this metal hinge. It keeps the bag open so I can reach in and reward my do timely, without fumbling. It also closes with a light finger touch. This is really helpful when you are juggling treats, a leash and other gear while also wanting to close the bag. **Durable -- Yes, this is my third bag. After about three years of daily use, the hinge comes apart or the metal closure breaks. I'd say that's excellent durability. The rugged canvas material doesn't fray, unravel or easily stain. I've never had a failure of the plastic clip on the belt or any problems with the lined pocket interiors coming apart. The only thing I would change to make this reliable pouch even better is if it were just a bit larger. I carry extra poop bags, keys, hair clips and cell phone. Though this bag has several storage pockets, if you fill it with treats there really isn't enough room for keys or cell phone. I end up hanging stuff off the bag or stuffing in my pants pockets. Still, overall I always come back to this treat bag. Using it daily, my PetSafe treat bag gets a workout and performs very well. I highly recommend this bag.

This is a great little treat bag - I bought it in blue, and I have used it all summer and have been very happy with it. It is well constructed with a large main pocket that pops open and stays open so that you can reach in and grab a treat easily with one hand. The springs seem sturdy, and it closes very securely so that your treats will not fall out. The main pocket also is divided into 2 - it has a smaller compartment inside that you can secure with a velcro strip, so you could potentially carry 2 different types of treats and keep them separated. I haven't used the smaller pocket, but some of my small treats from the larger pocket have wound up in the smaller portion, so it is not an airtight seal - you may have some treats mixed up in there over time. There is a small outside pocket that I can stuff my cell phone and keys into, but it is not very big so there are times that I have too much in there to actually close the outside pocket with the 2 velcro fasteners. So I do have to be careful not to let anything in the outside pocket fall out. But I think this is a good trade-off for the bag not being too bulky. There is a carabiner clip on the side, which I use to hold my clicker for training. Since the clicker makes an annoying sound when it is not in use and just hanging there, I got into the habit of tucking the clicker into the small elastic band in the front of the pouch, which seems to work well, although this band does seem like it will stretch out more over time. I always use the full waist strap to wear the pouch, so I have not used the belt clip, but it seems pretty sturdy and well-attached. The strap to go around your waist is fully adjustable and will fit many different size waists. You can remove the strap by unhooking it and sliding it through the two belt loops on the back, so that you can use it with just the belt clip. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase, and I would buy another one.

Great size, easy to use. I love all the pockets and areas I can stuff things in when I'm out and about with my dog. The hinges to keep the main pocket open or closed are amazing - it works flawlessly. I've use the snot out of this thing for a few months now before reviewing so I could be honest about it's performance. It holds a ton of treats. Really, a ton. My hands have been compared to gorilla hands, and I don't have issues with them not fitting in this pouch. No bumping, no scratching, nothing. I've not had issues with treats getting stuck down in the bottom, but I keep mine in ziplock bags - it's easier to swap out for the different treats I use for different dogs, and trust me you do NOT want dehydrated salmon crumbs sitting in this thing for a long amount of time - especially if you happen to leave it in your car during lunch break when it's 100 degrees in the shade. It's not pleasant, trust me. Ziplocks are your friend :) I've used a lot of other tpyes of pouches, and I really like this one best. The elastic lops on the front are great for holding things, but I use mine to hang things off. I have a potty bag holder, a silicone water bowl and a clicker hanging on mine currently. The front pocket that velcros shut is what I call my "training purse" area. I keep my drivers license, credit card and cell phone in it and when I'm out training public access I don't have to worry about carrying a full sized purse along with me. Convenience is key :)

Hands down one of the best pouches for training! It's comfortable and can fit quite a bit of food and the separation is a neat feature! I love the feel of it as I train dogs this is a must if you want to be a dog trainer.

Not easily opened with one hand. The trade off is that it stays shut well. It is a nice feature that you can leave it propped open.

This treat pouch works great, it is easy to open, and stays open when I need it to, and it closes very easily. It holds enough treats to work with my two Giant Schnauzers. I like the fact that it has a belt, but, you are also able to attach it to your waistband or pocket, and the clips are very sturdy. The front pocket holds my iPhone along with my keys, ID, and some money, so, I don't have to carry anything else and I am set to go where ever I need to. The carbiner clip is handy, the loop it is attached to is sturdy, and you can hook a leash, and extra collar, your keys, or a number of other items to it. It is easy to clean, and the extra pocket inside is nice if I want to put some "jackpot" treats inside and be able to differentiate between the two of them. I have ordered one for my husband we like it so much, when he uses it, he puts treats and a couple of Chuckit balls inside with room to spare. This arrived on time and well packaged thanks to Amazon Prime.

I've got a couple of the little drawstring treat bags but it's sometimes difficult to get the treats out quickly, and they fall out if I leave the top open. This treat bag is ideal as the hinges allow it to be opened quickly and to stay open. It's well-made and sturdy and the other small pocket is useful for poo bags. It is really worth spending the few extra pounds on this - anything that helps me train my dog to come when he's called is well worth it!

ottimo prodotto. E' la seconda che prendo. La molla che permette di chiuderlo con una semplice pressione della mano ne fa un'ottimo porta-bocconcini. Lavabile, spazioso ma non ingombrante (ho preso la misura più grande. Probabilmente la più piccola è "troppo" piccola). impermeabile La uso come porta-cellulare/porta oggetti vari. Non userò più altri porta-bocconi.

Nice quality at the price, the product is as advertised and handy for a dog owner to have.

I train guide dog puppies and this is the BEST treat pouch I have ever had. It is strong and sturdy, holds open well and fits lots of treats in it (plus front pocket fits my iPhone well) and it has good belt and clip for lead. I also don't get greasy stains on my clothes from wearing this treat pouch (like you can with other lower quality ones). It holds two cups of kibble easily, so I would recommend the smaller size if you don't need to carry as much as that. This larger one can also hold a toy for my pups, so I just love it (plus it is a slim design and dark, so I don't look like a complete dag when I am wearing it. I read the other reviews and thought the quality of this product might be questionable, but it most certainly is not. As I said it is the best training/treat pouch I have used (and I have used a lot). I have only been impressed and would recommend to anyone

The opening hinges of the item is really stiff and it makes it tough and not so pleasant to use this product.. Update: after 4 months of usage, the hinges are now too loose and the pouch isn’t able to stay open 😭😭😭
