Cycle Dog

Wow. I was in a bike shop in NE Portland when the Cycle Dog guy came in to pick up free tubes. He told the shop employee he couldn’t use tubes with Slime in them. The employee told him «Feel free to dig through and just take the ones you want.» He responded «Just throw them all out» and stormed out of the shop.
Additionally, I own a Cycle Dog leash made of recycling inner tube and don’t enjoy the black scum and marks I get all over my hands when I use it. Nasty!
Not a company I’ll be supporting going forward.

I love the idea of Cycle Dog, but even though I’ve stopped in a few times, I still don’t actually own any products. I really like that they recycle bicycle tubes and that manufacturing takes place at the local warehouse on Quimby. I like that the leashes and collars are durable and stink resistant (or at least they advertise so). The only thing I don’t like, and reason I don’t currently own any products, is the design. They use very loud, bright colors, and crazy patterns, which really is not my style. Or Remy’s. I’ll keep an eye out for more modest, classic products, at which point I would be more than happy to support this awesome local business.
One other plus is the indoor play group on Wednesdays. It’s a small space, but it’s free and fun! Plus, they’ll offer you a beer. Definitely worth checking out, especially if your dog’s style is more on the bright and crazy side.

What’s not to love about Cycle Dog? Local company, great post-​consumer recycled products, fantastic service, and in our neighborhood! They have it all!
We brought our 5-​month-​old puppy Milo in for their small dog play night for the first time today which used to be on Tuesdays from 5−6pm. They have since changed it to Sundays from 1−2pm, but one of their employees graciously brought her dog out to play with ours in their indoor turf area. They even offered us beers which my husband really appreciated. Milo is still figuring out the whole playing with other dogs thing & so it was great to see him playing so well with Clover. Clover’s mom even extended an invitation to bring Milo by to play with Clover anytime!
We purchased a reflective collar & leash for him here as well a few weeks back. It is great for taking him on walks after dark especially since he’s a small dog. The quality is great & the leash material is slightly grippy so it feels nice & secure when you’re holding it too. As long as we’re in Portland, we will be loyal Cycle Dog customers!

Really reasonably priced products, and the staff was very friendly. My puppy was very excited about her new toy and travel bowl!

Cycle Dog is the rudest and most unprofessional company I have ever dealt with. Too bad you have to give even 1 star. Toys are cheaply made and fall apart. Steer clear of this «business».

This is such a cute dog shop, I was immediately greeted upon entering the store by a friendly yellow lab dog. And, soon followed up by a small white-​dog of some sort. And, naturally, I was greeted and helped by the human-​of the store too. They don’t have a huge selection, but they have a lot of really good stuff there at good prices. My least exciting purchase was their doggie bags, they are environmentally friendly and come with a cute reusable carrying case. They were marked as $ 10 with the extra case, versus the price of $ 12 at REI, so it is a cheaper to buy them here if you can! In addition, I bought the cutest hippo-​toy, my dog went crazy for it. We call it «running laps» when he has a new toy that he treasures and he runs upstairs and then runs downstairs continuously (he is a high-​energy dog blue heeler +german shepherd mix so we strongly encourage the constructive burning off of energy by «running laps» in our house by Remy. But, yeah he carries the hippo around with him as a teddy bear and it is fairly destructive (he did manage to chew off a little leg already, but the helpful saleslady said that would most likely happen since he is a destructive chewer, and the hippo is a better design for him then say, the turtle). But, it is recycled plastic, and it is very durable the toy will last him a long-​while. And, let me back up the reason why I got this toy, is cuz we were visiting friends who have a Husky who is also a destructive chewer, and he treasured this toy. And, when I brought Remy over he noticed that toy right away, and I knew I had to buy one to have his own. IT was an owner responsibility to buy that toy! And, no buyer regrets what-​so-​ever it was worth every penny. They also have really cute collars and leashes for sale, I think I will go back soon and get a new collar for my other dog!

Cassidy is the best when it comes to custom harness and anything you need. Best customer service & we love their play nights on Wednesdays.

We randomly found cycle dog one day while walking around the neighborhood. Their building is very unique, it has a indoor turf playground for dogs to try out their many different toys which was awesome. We ended up buying a matching reflective leash and collar that had the bottle openers on it. They were both made from recycled inner tubes and looked great on our beagle. The staff was so helpful and nice. They fitted Dash for his collar. Both the leash and collar are great for taking your dog out for an evening walk because of how reflective it is. We loved it so much that we bought another two refelctive collars for our families dogs in California. We also bought a chew toy for Dash that he quickly chewed through. When we brought it back to the store they quickly replaced it. If your ever in the area you should definitely visit cycle dog and it’s showroom. Their products are unique and best of all their customer service is excellent.
