We are open and filling orders! Our studio prior to covid was in a large public maker space: Open Works of Baltimore, MD. We are currently sewing from home, and laser cutting at our maker space. The change means we have less staff. Lead time is 5-7 weeks. Thank you for your extra patience during this challenging time. We are excited to work some miracles for you in the fit of your dog's gear- and we will work these miracles with the help of your patience. We are only shipping domestic and to Canada.

Groundbird Gear is the preferred brand by long distance hikers and weekend warriors.
Bobwhite believes in lighter loads for dogs, starting with the gear weight itself and bag capacities that make sense! It is nearly impossible to find the right gear for your trail companion. Store bought mass-produced packs and doggie sleeping bags are typically overly large, overly heavy and many dogs have issues with the fit, which causes injury especially on a multi-day backpacking trip. To have a successful hike, your dog's gear should be as functional as your own. Our team makes GBG specific to your dog based on your submitted measurements, in Baltimore, Maryland. We guarantee a chafe-free fit, made with the same ingenuity that you love in your own gear! |
