UP DOG × Summit Assistance Dogs

UP DOG is proud to be the official harness outfitter for Summit Assistance Dogs

Summit Assistance Dogs creates life-changing partnerships by training and placing highly skilled mobility service dogs with individuals living with disabilities throughout the Pacific Northwest. Through everyday assistance—like retrieving items, opening doors, and turning on lights—these dogs help their handlers live with greater independence, confidence, and connection.

 

Designed for Real Work

Our magnetic harnesses are used daily by working service dogs in training and in the field.

They are chosen for three simple reasons:

  • Ease of use — quick, one-handed on and off
  • Reliability — secure fit without compromise
  • Comfort — built for all-day wear

When a product is trusted in real service environments, it means something.

 

A Shared Mission

We believe great design should do more than look good—it should make life easier.

Our partnership with Summit Assistance Dogs reflects that belief.

Each year, we donate a magnetic harness to each graduating service dog and their handler. As these teams begin their journey together, we’re proud to play a small part in supporting them with gear designed for reliability, ease, and everyday use.

A Word from Up Dog Shop’s Founder:


When I first sketched the idea for our magnetic leash, it came from a simple place—wanting to make everyday life with dogs easier and more thoughtful. Seeing our gear used by Summit Assistance Dogs is incredibly meaningful. These dogs are doing real, important work every day, and knowing that something we designed can support them, even in a small way, is not something I take lightly.

Thanks for supporting us and supporting the work they do every day.

Warmly,

Fred @ Up Dog Shop
