Pet Clothes

Are you getting a new puppy for Christmas this year?  If you are be sure and check out the different breeds because your dogs temperament should match yours.  You shouldn’t choose a breed that is highly energetic if you’re a couch potato.  On the other hand, if you want a dog that will follow you everywhere and who is always ready for a game of fetch or tug of war you should consider a dog that is highly active and always has a lot of energy, instead of one of the lethargic breeds.   You wouldn’t like it if your wanted to play and he wanted to lay.

What ever breed you decide to get your dog will need a collar.  The dog collars are the most beneficial item you can have for your dog.  A very important item to hang on the dog collar is the dog’s information.  His or her name, rabies information, and your information.  If the dog should happen to run off, someone can look at the dog collars tags and call you when they find your dog.

Dogs are wonderful friends and when we get them we plan on having them around for a long time.  Keep those dog collars on because you wouldn’t want to ever loose your best friend.

For those holidays that are about to arrive your dog wants to be a part of them.  You know they are always around and always wanting some attention.  Your dog has to wear his collar most of the time so why not dress that collar in a Christmas dog collar cover.  I think these dog collar covers are so cute and just a little something for your furry friend to wear.

There are many different holiday dog clothes pet accessories out now and there is a designer dog fashion that will look great on your dog.  These dog collar covers will look smart on your big or small dog and will make him feel like on of the gang. 

Dog owners use dog collars in may ways.  They use them for identification tags, medical information, a way to control a dog, and a way to look just classy.

The jeweled dog collars make a fashion statement and although you can use it for your dog’s identification tag most of these dog collars come with cute pendents that accessorise the dog collar. 

Check out some of the fancy jeweled dog collars for your dog.  While some of them may be a little pricey there are nice jeweled dog collars out that will make your pet look absolutely stunning.  Since owner’s usually want to show off their dogs this is a great way for your dog to get the attention they like from everyone on the street.  And you can be sure some of that attention will be on the dog collar.

I have just become a new doggy grandma.  My son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter just brought home a new Boxer puppy.  Her name is Roxie and she is just the cutest thing.  With those long legs and big feet the vet says she should weigh about 100 lbs.  Thus some interesting facts about Boxers.

They are considered guard dogs because they symbolize strength, agility and awareness.  This is why my son likes Boxers with  Roxie being his second one.  He wants his family to have protection and with their amazing loud bark they certainly would scare off anyone.

What these dogs need most is love.  They are very social and love to be around people.  They don’t do well when they are left alone for very long.  When they know that you are a friend, they become your best friend in return.  Boxers sure know how to give you that look with caring eyes and they know how to give comfort during sad times.  They also know how to “beg for treats”.

I found out that Boxers are very sensitive to extreme temperatures.  In times when it is to hot or cold the Boxers really need extra care.  They can overheat in the hot temperatures and get to cold in the winter months.  Their hair is short and close to the skin which makes very sensitive to the cold.  They do better if they can be in the house during extreme weather conditions.

So for my new Granddog, for the winter, she will be in a cute dog jacket and in the summer one of the great looking jeweled dog collars will be perfect.

I try to keep up with the styles and I found this cute Skull and Crossbones collar for my dog to wear.  I see so much of this style that I thought my dog had to be the one sporting this style.

I love these twinkle dog collars because the twinkle stays on the collar and not all over everything.  The crystal rhinestones are so sparkly also.  He looks fabulous. 

I can’t believe it is almost the holiday season (again).  Where did the summer go and why did it pass me by so fast?  Maybe I was to busy to enjoy the summer.  Next summer I’ll slow down and enjoy it.  That’s what I always say.

Since the holiday season is just around the corner I was looking around the other day and noticed some really cute dog clothes for my little man.  I found this cute holiday harness.  It is green velvet, trimmed in white (pleather) piping and has a white faux fur collar.  Well you know I just had to get it for Jake.  When I put it on him he looked so handsome.  He loves it and so do I.  It’s just the thing for the holiday’s.

So many pet accessories so little time.  What’s a girl to do?  I love my dog jewelry.  It always makes me feel so cute and sassy.  There are so many small dog accessories to chose from I really get confused.  There are dog necklaces, jeweled dog collars, collars with cute sparkling pendents I just don’t know where to begin.

I take my owner with me when I go shopping.  She she keeps me under control when I am going crazy trying to decide what to buy.  She always makes the best choices for me and I always look so cute at the doggie parks where I can strut my new pet accessory fashions.  I love my owner.  She’s the best.

I can’t tell you how much my dog likes to ride my bike with me.  He sees me put on my riding clothes and he is going wild.  How dare I not take him with me.  It’s pretty important for him to have just the right harness to ride with me so I dress him in his leather also. 

There are a ton of dog collars to get right now and when my man wants to get on my bike and ride you can be sure he has on his leathers just like me.  And you can be sure that he is in a safe place on my bike.  I wouldn’t want to loose my best riding buddy.

One of the most important things we can teach our dogs is how to walk on dog leashes. You want to establish authority over your dog and let him know who is in charge otherwise they will be in charge from the start. It is also a good way to bond with him and allow him to see sights outside of your backyard, not to mention the exercise you and your dog will get.

The best time for a dog to learn this is when he is still a puppy. However, it is never too late. Place a snug (but not too tight) collar on your puppy.  There are many comfortable dog collars you can find for your dog or maybe a harness would be best.  After you put on the collar add the leash. He will be a little “crazy” if you just hold on to the leash but if you let him walk around dragging the leash it will be easier on him.  Play with him and pet him while he is wearing the leash.

Take your time, be patient with him, and stay calm. If you yell at him or drag him down the street because he won’t do what you want he will never please you and that is all your dog wants to do.

If you have a fussy dog that likes the soft life, I found a super soft dog harness.  Unlike the dog collars they fit around the girth of your dog so as not to put so much pressure on those sensitive throats.  My dog’s throat is a little sensitive and I love to be able to walk him without him coughing all the time because the collar irritated his throat.

You can find some great dog harnesses online and I just love the soft felt ones.  My dog seem to enjoy his walks better when he can walk in comfort and be snuggled by a great soft fleece harness.
