What do you get for the dog who has everything? Some suggestions from The Arizona Republic include everything from massage to slumber parties.
Just like you, your dog may become so tense that his muscles ache. A head-to-tail massage may be just the ticket. Include essential oils if you dare!
Spa packages are available to help your dog feel pampered. A facial helps remove ick from beards. Milk baths with scented conditioners, paw waxing, nose buttering, and nail polish are all de rigour for the truly posh pet.
Take your dog on vacation. Many hotels now offer pet-friendly lodging, including a goodie bag of treats and beds covered with special quilts that they don’t mind if Fido sleeps on, and pet paths for your daily walk.
Slumber parties without having to stay up all night! Remember when your daughter had her last slumber party? How much sleep did you get that night? Now you can give your dog the same fun without the hassle. If you are going away for a few days, don’t kennel your dog, send him away for a slumber party! Look for a doggie day care that offers overnight care.
How’s a girl to survive without a bit of color? Some dog salons now offer tail-tip dye jobs!
Now this one’s interesting: why should you have to go out in the middle of the night to walk your dog? Pet-a-Potty has come up with the solution. A patch of “grass”, complete with a fire hydrant that you can set up in your apartment, allows your dog to take his own walk without leaving the comfort of home! No word on whether or not the hydrant has been marked by other dogs.
If camping’s your thing, you can now get a pet camper for the bargain basement price of just $5,000. Featuring two dishes and laminate wood flooring, the camper weighs 30 pounds and can hold a dog weighing up to 25 pounds.
And for the dog guardian who has everything, how about Bella Bags, designer pouches to clean up after your dog. They come in a wide variety of colors and designs, so you can match them to each of the dog’s outfit, and really, everyone knows your bag must match your outfit!
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
