If a regular sit-on-the-floor steel bowl for your furry friend just won’t work with your décor, you might be a little too concerned with details. That said, hello, nice to meet you, please sit down and join the club; your design obsessive tendencies are welcomed here. The Y.bowl from Doca Pet (literally) elevates the common steel bowl to a considered receptacle for your pets, and with different sizes and heights, you’re able to pick the perfect size. There’s also a fair bit of other similarly modern designs, Squaremeal being my second favorite.

And you thought an illuminated collar was cool. With this Pup Crawl Lights-Up Dog Leash you can make sure your dog stays visible to cars and bikers on the road. The LED lights can be seen from both sides and it’s made from reinforced nylon (appropriate for dogs up to 60 lbs.). With every sale, $3 goes directly to a partner animal organization. See below for more on The Pup Crawl’s misson.

I like dogs, designer or otherwise. They’re not allowed to sleep on the bed, but I’ll still lavish them with all the other fineries befitting of man’s best friend, like a Gaia & Gino titanium-coated dog bowl.

Designer: Brandon Warren
Small: 3 x 11 x 12 inches
Large: 4 x 13 x 14 inches
Porcelain (Silver version is titanium coated).

I’m getting one of these asap and you should too. Unless you don’t have a dog, of course… in which case you should think about getting one (unless you’re most decidedly not a dog person).

By using your FOUND collar and leash you are helping to raise public awareness of the urgent need for animal adoption. 25% of ALL our profits go directly to the Louis Animal Foundation, a unique non-profit group dedicated to spaying/neutering and providing homes for animals who have not yet ‘found’ their people. Our founder rescued Walter, one of her adopted pups, through the foundation and was inspired to donate a large portion of our profits to such an important organization.

FOUND Collar: $42.00-$50.00
FOUND Leash, natural or black rope: $56.00-$76.00

As a pet owner myself, I have to say this little pet carrier looks to have a handful of benefits over my existing plastic crates. It’s a bed that converts into a carrier, but it’s the extra accessories enabling travel ease that has me curious. I’d check it out if you’re not so happy with your current carrier.

Sleepypod allows pets to travel safely in the pampered comfort of their own bed made of luxurious ultra-plush and foam alleviating the stress associated with travel and confinement in hard, plastic boxes with limited visibility. Once your pet becomes accustomed to using the Sleepypod as a ultra comfortable bed, Sleepypod’s sturdy mesh top onto the luggage-grade ballistic nylon bed with machine washable liner and Fifi (or Fido) is ready to travel in their own bed. Straping the seat belt around the Sleepypod turns it into a car seat in seconds.

Sleepypod, $165.00
Sleepypod Mini, $149.50
Sleepypod Air, $149.99 (coming soon)

Like the look and love the idea of these dog toys…

“The RecycleBall is made from rubbery scraps left over from the manufacture of other chew toys. Your dog will will love that it’s super-strong and fun to gnaw.”

Gone are the days that pet homes were considered to be a necessary eyesore, instead, they are becoming an additional accent to any discerning pet owner’s living area.

“Lulu’s Hideaway is a modern interpretation of a pet house. The Hideaway exudes style with its angular lines and contrasting gloss white exterior and rich purple interior and mattress.”

Dimensions: H:17.7″ x W: 17.7″ x D: 17.7″

Acrylic pet bed with color coordinated mattress.

I really like this pet dish. You’ve seen the dual dish before but they’ve just recently released the single feeder which is a slightly more economical choice for those of us with discerning tastes who are also on a budget.

“The Bent Plywood Feeders hold dishwasher-safe stainless steel bowls in a platform that’s raised, which encourages digestive health benefits believed to be associated with elevated feeders. Each layer of plywood is bonded electronically in a high-pressure mold with water- and temperature-resistant resins. Three heights are available to fit animals of different sizes.”
