In this episode, Ed Frawley shares a new product available at Leerburg.com. This training vest was designed by Ed Frawley. After training dogs for over 60 years in Wisconsin's cold fall and winter climate, Ed knows what a dog trainer needs to stay warm and still have access to the tools needed to train dogs. He designed an insulated vest that has a zip-off insulated hood. The vest comes with seven pockets, 4 of them have zippers. Ed preferred zippers and not Velcro.
