Dog Tie one on with a neck tie that’s gone to the dogs
They say that a dog is man’s best friend.
I disagree. I believe that a dog is a woman’s best friend for the majority of the time, unless the man has bacon in his pocket.
Next Friday is National Bring Your Dog to Work Day, so I’m going to make sure my sensational Scotty, Madison, makes a good first impression on the boss with this cool Poochie Dog Tie from Fetch Dog.
Maybe she’ll even get a temp job out of it. She can fetch just about anything.

Puppy Tweets make a sweet puppy tweet (I mean treat) for your dog
I had to take my dog to the vet this weekend.
My one sick dog had been scratching uncontrollably and ripping out colossal clumps of fur due to allergies and a bacterial infection. Fortunately, the scratching has ceased thanks to a few strong petscriptions. Unfortunately, the antibiotics and steroids she’s on have caused her to drink more… and pee more.
This doesn’t bode well while she’s home alone during my 9 hour work day.
If only she could tweet me:
My Dog: I need to pee. Stat.@BestDogMomEvR
Me: I’ll be home in 15 minutes. Hold it.@ZoeyK9
My Dog: Yeah, good luck with that.@BestDogMomEvR
Oh wait, now she can totally jump on the Twitter train, thanks to the new innovative and very pupular Puppy Tweets social networking device from X-treme Geek that is slowly sweeping the dog nation.
All the cool dogs at the dog park are doing it. = )

Pet portraits from photos - Turn a photo of your pet into a custom portrait
Something I’ve noticed recently amongst dog owners is that every pup parent thinks their dog is the cutest dog at the dog park.
Whether they own a doberman with a drooling problem, a mastiff with a massive underbite or a pug with a rather fugly face, they firmly believe that their precious canine is the most adorable mutt ever to tinkle on a fire hydrant.
Now you can celebrate and immortalize that face that only a pet owner could love. Treat yourself and man’s best friend to a piece of custom artwork that captures your dog’s likeness to a t (as in terrier) with Luna Toons Custom Pet Portraits from In the Company of Dogs.
Best of all, your pooch doesn’t even need to pose, sit, stay or heel for this pawtrait.

Dog DNA test helps dogs find their heritage with a doggone easy kit
I always thought my dog was a pure Cairn terrier, but we recently uncovered a secret underground fake pedigree scam. Turns out my dog’s mother was a pure Cairn terrier, but no one knows who the father is. Her mom got around when she was younger and apparently had more than a few boyfriends.
My poor puppy is having a dog identity crisis. I tried to book her on a segment of the Maury Povich or Jerry Springer show, but the producers weren’t the slightest bit interested in a Who’s My Dog’s Daddy? segment. That and they also said she wasn’t skanky enough. After exhaustive google searches and tweeting, we finally found this Dog DNA test kit from In the Company of Dogs.
We’re ready for some answers.

Canine fitness is a walk away with fun canine treadmills
My dog and I do everything together. We wake up together, take walks in the park together and we work out together, especially when bikini season is soon approaching. We want to look good when we hit the dog beach, so we’ve been following a sensible diet, taking multi-vitamins and amping up our fitness routines. All animal trainers agree, there is no better way to diminish puppy gut than by increasing their cardio 3-5 days a week on these Canine Fitness Treadmills from Hammacher Schlemmer.

St Patricks Day accessories for your St Paddy’s Day pooch
My silky terrier was born here in the states, but swears she’s Irish.
Not only does Marley turn every game of fetch into a drinking game, but she falls asleep on the bathroom floor like many an Irishman I used to know, prefers Irish stew to Alpo, has been arrested twice for public intoxication, and only urinates on green fire hydrants.
Whether Marley has the blood of an Irish Setter running through her veins or not, I still treat her like royalty, so I’m gifting her with some festive St Patrick’s Day accessories like this Irish Princess Charm from DogGone Charming to wear on her collar…that and a bowl of Bailey’s Irish Cream.

Tees for dogs that keep your dog from overeating
My son has always wanted a dog, so this past Christmas I thought to myself - Hey, why not bite the big one? Our pad could use another top dog in the house…So I traveled up north to New York to pick up our new 10 week-old chocolate lab puppy. We named him Capone because in our house, he’s Public Enemy #1. He may not be bootlegging alcohol or committing tax evasion, but he did chew up half a hardcover copy of “100 Greatest Places to Go“…now I guess I’ll only be visiting 50 of those places.
Capone eats a lot – kibble, books, furniture…possoms. I was warned that this is customary for Labs. Capone’s starting to get a bit sensitive to his expanding middle, so he’s taken to wearing this “Does This shirt Make Me Look Fat” Humor Dog Tee from In the Company of Dogs.

Door bell that’s gone to the dogs
My dog’s name is Marley. Yep, just like the canine protagonist of the New York Times Bestselling autobiographical book (and soon to be released feature film starring Jennifer Aniston & Owen Wilson) Marley & Me.
Marley and Me are living the good life. My Marley never wreaked as much havoc as the yellow lab literary Marley from the book, although she did do her fair share of pillow tearing and slipper chewing back in her days as a mighty precocious pup. Always a quick study, Marley was potty trained before I knew it thanks to a handy doggie door installed in our old house. Marley came and went as she pleased…until we moved into my condo. Now she’s under house arrest.
We’re pretty in sync when it comes to walk time, but every now and then poop happens. This Gotta Go Dog Door bell from J-B Wholesale Pet Supplies lets me know when Marley’s gotta go so I don’t end up with a whole lotta mess I gotta clean up. Read the rest of this entry »
Handsome tuxedo styles for a couple of hot dogs
It was a day that would go down in history -The first same sex canine marriage to be performed in the state of California. After sharing the same doghouse and living together in a domestic partnership for five years (thirty-five in dog years), Butch and Pepé finally decided to make it official. Pepé would now be added to Butch’s veterinary insurance policy and receive the same benefits and rights as any legal spouse. The catering was by Petco, the dog flea shampoo and styling products from 1800 Pet Meds, the flowers from Tulips.com, and the dashing dog tuxedo set from Marilyn’s Keepsakes.

This Santa Dog suit from In the Company of Dogs makes me believe
When I was ten I stopped believing in Santa. I witnessed my sleepy father ripping a Cabbage Patch Kid out of it’s box and from that day forward I knew, it was all a pretense. Until last year. Why does this Dog Santa Suit from In the Company of Dogs make me believe? Here is my story…
Last Christmas Eve I was
sleeping all snug in my bed,
while visions of Marc Jacobs
handbags danced in my head.
When down on the stairs
there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed
to see what was the matter.
