Special Winter Treat for the Pampered Pup

If you're looking for something extra special with which to pamper your little (or bigger) pup this winter, than take a cue from my obviously spoiled rotten little princess and plug in an electric blanket. Little dogs absolutely adore the extra warmth.

For safety considerations, aside from following all of the standard directions provided with the blanket on its packaging, this should only be allowed under close supervision, and I wouldn't crank the heat all the way up, but prefer to keep it at a more medium temperature. Make sure plently of water is available to your dog (as always), and make sure there isn't any water near the blanket. Also, beware of the cords, as a little one could easily become tangled. Like I said, let them nap on these under close supervision.

Affordable Collars That Actually Look Good

Collars are so mundane, they really are. They're like socks, or a belt. You know they're a necessity of life, yet there always seems to be a million things you'd prefer to purchase. Starry just burned through the bejewled collar she's had for less than a year which cost be 50 bucks, and since she recently chewed a whole through my favorite pair of designer jeans, I am less than eager to go buy her a new one. Still, she needs one badly, so I was ecstatic to check out Pure Country pet Boutique and find a bunch of fabulous options all priced at under $20. They have all of my necessary requirements; some with jewels, some with studs, leather, etc.

While you're snooping around, you can try and find Starry who won a modelling contest for their site. I'll give you a hint, she might sneak up on you in an orange sweater and say "Boo"!

Haute Coats

Coats are great. They not only look amazing, but they add a little extra something to the fashionable pup. Any dog can wear a sweater, but a great coat looks incredibly luxe. Thats why I just adore the Aspen Dog Coat by New York Dog. It features: faux suede and think faux fur, velcro closure, gold hardware on back, and metallic faux leather trim. It is available in emerald green or chocolate brown.
