New Twist on "TOP DOG"

A couple of things I found online this week at Bed Bath & Beyond

Canine Bunk Beds let your dogs decide once and for all who's "TOP DOG" Alpha/SchMalpha! I'll bet it's going to be first come, first served up there!

SURRENDER DOROTHY! I don't know if you've noticed, but I reference THE WIZARD OF OZ *and* STAR WARS a LOT. Keep your TOTO safe from Tornadoes..or is it Tornados? [I'll ask Dan Quayle] with this cute small animal carrier.

DIAPER [PAD] GENIE This wasn't in the PET section-but I discovered a client of mine using this very thing to hold those gross, used wee wee pads. If it can keep diaper smell away, surely it can work for a lil doggie. I'll bet it's especially helpful if you have multiple small dogs using pads or a young puppy using a LOT of pads daily. Come to think of it-just throw ALL the gross garbage right in there..I think I have some science projects in my fridge that would do.

HAMSTER BOTTLE FOR DOGS I'm on the fence about recommending this product. While I've used it and think it's very cool-it doesn't always fit properly and water DOES leak out at times. However, it is a super cool idea that works awesome a lot of the time. Put this simply adapter on any water bottle and it adds a rolling ball dispenser head to the bottle that only lets water out when your dog licks it, so you don't spray water at your dog or have to carry a bowl or use your hand. Think GIANT hamster bottle.

It's PET {reGR}ETSY time of the week!

When good crafts go to the DOGS...it's REGRETSY TIME.

 

Have you heard of Regretsy? It's a fantastic BLOG/SITE that highlights some of the MOST HORRID selections of crafty merchandise you might never otherwise run across from ETSY.COM, a very popular commercial site for artist, craftspeople and resellers. Etsy brings crafters and their wares to a unified marketplace where like-minded people can browse online and buy  them, like a MEGA renegade craft fair 24-7.

Before I move on to comment on my VERSION of Regretsy, First things first...

#1 I LOVE people making stuff, so KUDOS to anyone for making stuff.

#2 Finding hideous stuff on Etsy was harder than I thought. Maybe I'm just a happy optimist.

#3 If any of this is yours, please don't take it personal...I probably LOVED your other stuff for $ale, but you gotta ADMIT, it takes a special person to LIKE THESE items...I HOPE you sell them!

Here's some of the words i searched to try to get AWFUL regresty worthy dog stuff DOGS + FLEECE Dogs + COLORFUL DOGS + WOW DOGS + RAINBOWS DOGS + LITLLE +FLUFFY +CUTE I might as well have searched DOGS + JAPANESE...let me try that now.
NOPE! Japanese stuff is CUTE & GLITTERY!

You could pretty much sell me ANYTHING with a chihuahua on it...but NO not this. This is like a Badgerhuahua. It reminds me of Caddyshack and also the toothbrush commercial in the movie Grease.

Apparently, that's FABRIC....I thought it was a melted bottle cap of some sort...ALSO the description tells me that's a GOLDEN RETRIEVER puppy in the center.  "Are you certain?' ---"of course-Look at the ears!"

hmmmm...once it's covered with hair [In case you HAVE NOT GUESSED-it's a hair clip] who can tell.

Etsy, really has some great dog related stuff to choose from. I love the DACHSUND decanter...so CUTE! and the doggie bags make me want to make some EMPIRE of the DOG doggie bags for our local places to send food home for the pups!
In the next week, I'll take some photos of the dog related art that I have here. It's a pretty varied collection. I hope you all enjoy these....I had fun searching for them. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
