Dog Leash Handle With Water Reservoir
Spleash is a dog leash handle with a built-in 12-ounce water reservoir and a flip-open cup for your pup to drink from during walks. It also includes an easy-pull water trigger that can spray water over 14 feet, making it great for quickly cooling off your pet or washing muddy paws. This handy leash handle attaches to standard rope, nylon, or leather leashes in under 30 seconds. Colored dots aid in correct leash installation, and the no-slip grip locks in even the thinnest of leashes. Spleash is available in teal or orange colors. Price is $34.99.

Swiveling Table System
The Lagun Table Leg System attaches to an existing tabletop and makes it possible for the table to swivel and rotate into multiple positions or to be locked into place. The leg also moves up and down and can swing out of the way when the table isn’t needed, opening up valuable space in the RV. Three different Lagun systems are available: standard, which works in most applications; longer, which provides more height; and double-handled, giving you a greater vertical adjustment range. Price is $199 for the standard leg system.
