For handlers of avalanche rescue dogs, the Pacific Loop is a tool that motivates and rewards canines in training and at work. Two grab handles keep hands clear of eager mouths and the tug pad, making for a rewarding tug interaction. Built to withstand day-in-day-out use, it delights not just dogs on the job, but any canine who finds nothing’s more fun than a good ol’ fashioned game of tug. Bonus? It floats.

1. Centrally located tug pad encourages targeted interaction
2. Wide-set handles create space between hands and dog's mouth
3. Hard-wearing materials suitable for the rigors of play
