Car, holiday and day-out finds that make travelling with a dog easier, whether that dog is nine months or fourteen years old.
Mutts & Hounds
From £135
A Yorkshire tweed carrier lined with soft fleece for tiny and small dogs. It opens out into a travel bed and is made in Somerset.
Why we picked itFor small dogs who tire easily, including little older dogs, on days out. Made in England from British tweed, with shoulder-length handles.

Ruffwear
£109.95
A padded car harness that attaches using your car's own seat belt, with strength-rated metal hardware.
Why we picked itThe Highway Code expects dogs to be suitably restrained in cars. Ruffwear says this harness has been crash tested, and it lets a dog sit, stand or lie down while staying secured.

Ruffwear
£25.95
A lightweight fabric bowl with a waterproof lining that folds into a pocket. The medium holds 1 litre.
Why we picked itIt weighs next to nothing, packs flat into a pocket or door pocket, and works for food or water. Useful to keep in the car.

Ruffwear
£52.95
A padded travel bed with a non-slip waterproof base that folds up small, for holidays, pubs and car boots.

Kleinmetall
£241.99
A telescopic aluminium car ramp that extends from 73cm to 163cm, 41cm wide, with a grippy stepped surface. It's rated for dogs up to 85kg and has a carry handle.
Why we picked itThe length gives a gentler slope into a high boot, it's wide enough for big dogs, and it folds away with a handle and clip. Kleinmetall is a German manufacturer, and zooplus lists the ramp as TÜV-checked.

Dogrobes
From £25.79
A single-layer cotton towelling drying coat that ties on with fabric ties rather than Velcro, made in Britain in ten sizes.
Why we picked itDogrobes uses a dual-loop cotton towelling that it says is made specially for the coats, in one lightweight layer with a hanging loop. It fastens with adjustable ties instead of Velcro, comes in ten sizes from Mini to XXXL, and can be ordered with a harness opening or a name of up to 15 characters.

Ruff and Tumble
From £36.95
A double-thickness cotton towelling drying coat with an extra-wide belly flap and a deep collar that folds up into a hood.
Why we picked itThe coat is cut in 18 sizes, including dedicated shapes for Dachshunds, Corgis, Basset Hounds, German Shepherds and mountain breeds, which is unusual. The deep collar folds up to cover ears and head, and the wide belly flap is designed to cover the underside where most of the mud collects.

InnoPet
£429.95
A three-wheel folding stroller for dogs up to 25kg, with 12-inch tyres, a lockable front wheel, parking brake and two internal safety tethers.
Why we picked itMost pet strollers stop at small dogs; this one carries up to 25kg in a 67 x 35 x 56cm cabin. It folds one-handed, has a click-lock canopy and removable pad, and lets a dog that can no longer manage the whole walk still come along.

Ruff and Tumble
£24.95
A pair of extra-long drying mittens in double-thickness natural cotton towelling, with a hanging loop; one size.
Why we picked itMitts make it much easier to dry legs, paws and undercarriage than a flat towel, and these are made from two layers of cotton towelling rather than microfibre. The extra length and hanging loop are practical touches for a boot room or car door.

Travall
See retailer for price
A vehicle-specific steel dog guard, designed and made in the UK, that fits between boot and cabin without drilling.
Why we picked itUnlike universal guards, each one is engineered for a particular make, model and year, and installs without drilling or permanent modification. It is made in the UK from powder-coated steel and carries a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.

TransK9
£500
A UK-made aluminium boot crate for one dog, with steel doors, key locks, anti-slip matting and an emergency rear escape door.
Why we picked itBuilt to fit specific cars rather than as a generic box, with a rear escape door so the dog can be released if the tailgate cannot be opened. Construction is aluminium with steel doors, and it comes with a 10-year structural warranty.

Tavo Pets
From £350
An enclosed pet car seat for smaller dogs that latches directly onto a car's ISOFIX anchor points, with side impact guards and washable liners.
Why we picked itIt uses the same ISOFIX anchor points as a child seat, with integrated latches and no separate base, which is an unusual approach for a dog carrier. Two sizes take dogs up to 13.5kg or 18.1kg, and it comes with two washable liner sets and mattresses.

Henry Wag
£41.24
A collapsible handlebar-mounted seat for dogs up to 6kg, with an internal lead and a storage pocket.
Why we picked itA simple way to take a very small dog along on a bike ride without a trailer. It attaches to the handlebars of most bikes, has a short lead inside, a pocket for treats, and collapses for storage.

Henry Wag
From £19.99
An absorbent microfibre bag that zips around a wet dog up to the neck, to contain mud and water on the journey home.
Why we picked itRather than towelling a dog down in a car park, the dog sits inside the bag, which fastens at the neck with a zip and Velcro and protects the seats or boot. It is machine washable at 30 degrees and the maker lists five sizes.

Mud Daddy
£69.99
A portable 5-litre dog washer with a 2-metre hose and a rechargeable, one-button power brush for rinsing mud off at the car or back door.
Why we picked itIt carries its own water, warm or cold, so a dog can be rinsed before getting into the car. This version replaces hand pumping with a battery brush that the maker describes as giving a silent, gentle stream of water; a 2.5-hour charge is stated to give one to two hours of use. Mud Daddy describes itself as a Newcastle-based company.

Long Paws
From £14.75
A stainless steel dog water bottle with a roller-ball top that releases a small sip each time the dog licks, so no bowl is needed.
Why we picked itThe ball seals between licks, so the bottle can go back in a bag without spilling and no water is tipped away afterwards. It comes in 250ml, 500ml and 750ml sizes with a carabiner clip, and the company describes it as a UK design.
