If you are looking for a quick but adorable way to organize all your essentials for walking your dogs, this mason jar dog treat organizer. It only takes 30 minutes active time to complete. The longest part is waiting for the paint to dry. Once complete you will have a place to hang your leashes and harness. We added a jar for plastic bags so that we can easily grab a few to clean up messes during our walk. There is also a jar for holding treats that do not need to be refrigerated, like our hypoallergenic chicken biscuits, and your dog’s favorite toy to play with during your walk. Check out our video tutorial, then make your own!
