OneTigris K9 Ambassadors are a busy bunch, some have hectic social lives on Instagram replying to fans and friends around the globe, and some are working dogs on even more important missions. Flyaway Geese, owned by Rebecca Gibson, is one of the industry’s leaders in providing professional bird management and geese solutions through humane, PETA approved solutions to specific environmental niches. In short, a team of smart and dedicated border collies with natural, no-kill herding skills.  The A Team consists of Greg, Bett, Marx, Zoe, Flo, and Hoop, all 6 of them are proud 1TG K9 Ambassadors and currently on a very important mission in Fort Wool, Virginia.    The decommissioned Fort Wool was used to sight and to strike approaching British ships around 200 years ago, and now it’s home to thousands of seabirds that go there to nest. Flyaway Geese was hired to patrol a neighboring construction site and to herd the birds away from the site to Fort Wool. Their job is to teach the birds the area near the construction work isn’t a safe place where they should live.    How do they do that?   The team gears up in working vests, safety boots and goggles, and deter the birds from landing near the construction site. Their tactical vests with light reflective strips and bright patches help with visibility when working in outdoor or low light conditions, the boots protected their feet from jagged rocks and rough surfaces, and the goggles protect their eyes while helping them to see the birds in the air.   The Flyaway Geese team, along with a group of wildlife biologists, will remain until September when the tunnel expansion project is over, and they are already getting a lot of publicity on local news channels and social media pages: WBTV, Virginian Pilot, VDOT, JBLE...    Video Credit: VDOT   Among our K9 Ambassadors, there is also Denali and her pups from Global Conservation Force, working with professional anti-poaching teams in South Africa. CRW Hercules from Yeager Airport is on the airport wildlife control team and also works as a therapy dog. Newton and Koper are online celebrities with a big following, and they were the center of attention as our K9 models at Airsoftcon last year in California. We also have Phoebe the Samoyed from Scotland, Rosie the Service Dog from California, and The Dog Coach with his entire doggo team.    All our ambassadors help OneTigris to test gear and offer valuable feedback, and at such strange times, it’s always very uplifting to hear news of them not only staying safe and healthy, but being active and taking each day in calm and confident stride.    Photo Credits: Flyaway Geese   

  To all the Wonder Women of this universe, thank you for being awesome. Here are the lucky winners of our Mother's Day giveaway! ***   @ilckenzoo   "I’ve always been an animal lover, even in college I was smuggling in stray kittens and puppies into the dorm. I started fostering years ago when a friend of mine posted a dog who’s time was up at a local county shelter. For some reason I couldn’t get the image of her face out of my mind so I went to the shelter to pick her up and ended up working with a rescue because she had severe health issues… As you know vet bills can get expensive so it’s great to have a rescue to work with to alleviate some of the financial burden.   "Once I found a home for her, I fostered another, and another, and another, lol. There are just so many that need help! It’s really sad. It’s been therapeutic for me too finally be able to use my passion for animals in a positive life-changing way. I’ve met so many great families along the way!"   ***  @forestwolfperak   "Because of you, I laugh a little harder, cry a little less, and smile a lot more.   "My name is Julia, and the handsome fluffy boy next to me is (Dari Intan Putih) Perak! He's an almost 7 year old white Swiss shepherd and we live together in the Netherlands, when we started looking for a new companion 7 years ago we where set on one of the female dogs from the litter, Perak's sister who's named Pucat was set to come live with us. My father who came to help us pick out a puppy noticed Perak right away and decided he should be coming home with him, and I'm very glad he did exactly that! Perak grew up as my fathers dog, but we quickly started bonding together. There was just this amazing connection that we had. At age 2 I started doing agility with Perak, and from there on our bond grew even stronger. Years went on and my father came to realise how happy perak and I made eachother, he signed ownership of his beloved dog to me! This was the greatest blessing I could ever receive, and now years later I have both Perak and Pucat at my side, we have been on many trips within." *** @lisi_mtb_33   "My name is Lisi and I am 21 years old and I live in Austria. I have a rare chronic disease called EDS and some more. I want to live my life the best way I can and still do things that makes me happy, even if it's harder. That's why I got Jucan. He is a 7 months old service puppy and in training to be my service dog. He is my lifeline and gives me the strength to move on and stay mobile. Jucan is my soul mate. I also have 2 Swissy dogs, Tony and Barli. Sadly Tony needs a wheelchair. All my dogs use 1TG Gear, because it's strong and looks fantastic. So to all disabled people amd animals out there: Stay strong!  *** @mileyonetigris   "Last year, our apartment adopted an angel Molly. She's smart, gentle, friendly to everyone! I was a "cat" person actually, but she changed my life. One day she came to my door, wants play with me and my cat. Suddenly there was a man banging on my door, scared the hell out of me. She was just like 3 months old? She stood up and shouting at the door! I never heard that she made such loud voice before. This cute little thing was trying to protect me!!! After that she came to my house everyday and she loves me just like I love her! Now she grown up, had 5 babies on Mar. I just want to say, I'm happy to be your mother, and I'm proud of you to be a mother! Happy Mother's day!!" *** @that_nepa_newfie   "Happiest mamma’s day to all my fur frens!!! Dis my mamma and she is da bestest to me and my dad! Frens tanks your mamma’s fur all da treatos and lovin’s dey gives us!!"   "Oakley is a 2 1/2 year old Newfoundland. We have raised her since she was a puppy. She trains as a water rescue dog. She brings out the best in people who meet her and we enjoy spreading her love! We have been using 1tg gear since she was big enough for a harness. Keep up the good work!"  

Some airsoft vests allow plate inserts, most have webbing for pouch and tool attachments, so you can do a bit of weight training while you're moving about in the house.

This year’s World Mental Health Day (Oct 10th) comes at a time of change and much uncertainty. 

The Gladiator Support Harness was created to provide mobility assistance for dogs with weak legs or injuries.

"I had no issues with this harness. Thank you for letting us gear test for you! It means a lot and I love your company so much."

One of my favorite features was the fact that the two harness pieces came apart easily and completely so that people with dogs who may struggle with gear can have a MUCH easier time getting this harness on their pup.

The Christmas season is fast approaching and not only is it the perfect time of year to spend time with family and spoil everyone (even our furry friends!) with gifts, it’s also the perfect time of year to spend time outdoors!

In the past, dog harnesses were used mostly for working dogs (e.g. sled dogs), but with the evolution of pets! More and more owners are now looking into different types of canine attire for different purposes (running, training, etc.) So, what are the benefits of harnesses for your pup?

Overall my experience with the harness has been amazing.

OneTigris is a tactical-style outdoor gear store, selling all kinds of products, from airsoft gear to affordable military-style dog harnesses. We tested a few of their dog products before and were looking forward to trying out their new Fire Tanker harness!

Finding the purrfect harness is usually a mission for many adventure cat owners. Honestly, there are just too many options on the market!

Our official Instagram account (@onetigris) was deactivated over the past few days for some unknown reasons, we’ve been working on the issues and will keep you updated once it gets back on track.

If you and your dog are outdoor enthusiasts and you want to go backpacking together, then you and your furry sidekick will get to bond through good times and great adventures. 

The FIRE WATCHER has been a classic OneTigris dog vest for as long as we can remember; its popularity is largely due to the rugged tactical style and functionality, yet it’s affordably priced, offering great value for money.

One of the most common questions people ask me while I take out my cat, Archer, out on an adventure is, “How did you train him?!” 

Careful and consistent care of OneTigris products will ensure that they stay in good condition and have a long shelf life. In this article, we will share tips on the proper way to clean nylon-made dog gear.

The AIRE Mesh Harness is an excellent cross of a vest and a harness.

Traveling with your dog in the car can be a delightful experience, allowing you to create cherished memories together during exciting adventures or peaceful drives.
