Ruff Wear was started in 1994, by Patrick Kruse, with the goal to create innovative gear for the dog on the go. Based in Bend, Oregon this company specializes on creating items to enhance the interactive bond between canines and their human guardians. A driving force behind Ruff Wear is to allow both canines and humans to expand their activities and enhance our shared lives. They carry all types of gear for dogs, from booties and packs, to toys and leashes.
