Meet Hazel and Mia, two rescue sisters who bring the best energy to every adventure!

Hazel is our star athlete ✨ From dock diving to hiking to swimming, she’s always looking for the next challenge and nails it every time.

Mia is the forever puppy of the pack 🐶💗 At 6 years old, her fur is still puppy-soft and her little ears pop up just like a baby pup. She’s always down for a car ride and never turns down an adventure.

These girls show up to every outing in style with their Mini Flat Black Simple Slip Lead, keeping them connected, confident, and ready for wherever the day takes them.

Pack walks give dogs a shared job and a steady rhythm, helping them practice calm coexistence, build trust, and settle into a balanced state of mind together. 🐾

Our Simple Slip Lead creates a clear, effective connection between a handler and their pack, making movement, structure, and communication so much easier.

For pack walks with two or more dogs, we always recommend our Mini Simple Slip Leads. They’re ultra-lightweight and comfortable to hold, making it easy to manage multiple leashes while keeping unity and flow in the pack.

Meet Winnie, this week’s pup with a whole lot of love to share. She adores being close to her people and is building her confidence one brave step at a time. Winnie enjoys pack walks, car rides, sunny spots, and a good chew toy. She might need a reminder if a bunny hops by, but she’s a great listener and settles right back in.

She’s ready for her forever home, whoever adopts her gets a loyal little shadow with endless love to give.

Rocking her Berry Confetti Simple Slip Lead, she’s a pop of color and sweetness all in one. 🍓

So many “problem behaviors” aren’t problems at all. They are instincts with nowhere to go. Your dog isn’t trying to be difficult. They are trying to be who they were bred to be.

Herders herd, terriers dig, guardians protect, retrievers retrieve. These drives don’t disappear just because our lifestyles have changed. If we only try to stop the behavior, we miss its purpose.

Fulfill your dog and give them work that makes sense to them. Swap “How do I fix this?” for “How can I channel this?” When purpose is met, behavior shifts, calm follows, and connection grows.

A slip lead or slip collar can help you guide that energy with clarity. Fun fact: you can attach any lead, even a long line, to our Simple Slip Collar so you can support their instincts while staying connected and communicating clearly.

The goal isn’t to fix your dog. It is to help them feel fulfilled. ❤️🐾

Meet Harvey, one of the strongest souls rescued by

Last year, Harvey was diagnosed with terminal cancer, but you’d never know it from the way he lives his life. With the help of his incredible foster mom phenixtakesflight, he’s thriving every single day - keeping up with his structured routine, enjoying his walks, and soaking in all the love he can.

His trusty Simple Slip Lead helps keep him safe and confident on every adventure. The slip lead gives his foster the strength and communication she needs while complementing his handsome, resilient spirit.

Harvey reminds us that every day is a gift and he’s determined to make the most of every one. 💪💛

Want a better connection with your dog? Step into their world. Join them in their natural environment, sniff, explore, and move at their pace. Plus, giving your dog a little extra leash by untieing the figure 8 knot on the Simple Slip Lead lets them move more freely and fully explore their surroundings. When you slow down and see things from their perspective, you will uncover what motivates them, strengthen your bond, and build trust that lasts. 🤎

Explore together, move at their pace, and watch your connection grow.

Our Story

By creating simple, easy to use, everyday training accessories with a fun dose of fashion, we inspire dog owners to get excited about training their dogs.

Bubble & Spike is a rescue story about a Chihuahua and a Pit Bull, the two most common breeds found in shelters. Bubble, the Pit Bull and Spike, the Chihuahua, were surrendered at a shelter after their owners complained of behavioral issues. Fortunately, a rescue stepped in to save their lives. Both Bubble & Spike went to foster homes where they completed their training program and were soon adopted to wonderful families.

Millions of dogs are surrendered to our local shelters each year due to behavior issues and sadly many don’t make it out. It’s stories like this that motivate us to take a bigger step in saving the lives of dogs - BEFORE they are given up on.

Our Founder, Aften Bell began designing leather accessories for Fossil Group in Dallas, Texas Fall of 2010. During that time, she was offered a design position for Skagen Leathers, a startup division of Fossil. She designed and developed leather accessories for the next several years and experienced the joys of corporate startup success as high sell throughs hit Nordstrom and stores alike. With goals of entrepreneurship tugging at her heart, she eventually left the corporate world and ventured out on her own. Aften claimed success with founding a 501c3 nonprofit Pit Bull rescue also known as The Love Pit, saving the lives of hundreds of pit bull type dogs, which continues to prove annual steady growth. Through this journey, she saw the need for better dog training tools - products that not only looked good but also helped you maintain control of your dog. From dog rescue, behavioral training, cool marketing and creative product design, she has a vision to inspire and educate pet owners worldwide.
