Posh and Pink: Dog stuff I love and why!
Here is my darling dog Angel. Isn't she adorable. She is the only dog I have ever had and so cute that naturally I wanted cute dog stuff for her. So I was surprised, when I looked around, and had a hard time finding pretty and functional doggy stuff. However, I was able to find quite a few things after doing some digging.
So enjoy and here they are:
Cute Crate: The Pawd byKindTail
A collapsable crate that is easy to clean, safe with rounded edges and is incredibly strong, a door designed to fold all they was open and stay out of the way, and it is super cute! It is my number one choice for small dog owners! The small PAWD is $129, has 4 cute colors, and measures 21 in x 16in. x 16 in. The medium PAWD is $179, the same cute colors, and measures 26 in x 21 x 20 in. They also sell cushioned pads and pet beds designed to fit perfectly inside the crate! Genius!
2. Stylish Travel Carrier: by VanderPump Pets or Wild One
VanderPump Pets and Wild offer stylish travel carriers in color options that are a step up from the ugly "duffle bag” appearance pet carriers so often encountered.
When searching for a TSA approved way to fly Angel with me on trips, I settled on Vanderpump Pets Travel carrier. It was is clearly inspired by Lisa’s love of designer beauty.
Vanderpump’s pet carrier is the designer purse inspired version of stylish travel for pups. For lovers of Louis Vuitton, Chanel, and others, it is the pet carrier for you.
Wild One’s pet carrier is a little more utilitarian in appearance, but still very cute compared to others and has a lot of great design features.
Keep in mind these carriers are small because they are required to be a certain measurement for airlines. They are great for short trips as well, but if you want a larger carrier for everyday use then consider something different.
3. Food and Water Bowls / Water Dispenser
As far as feeding bowls, I honestly could not find anything super cute that my pup could not flip over and dump! What a little rascal! So I settled for something that she simply left alone and wasn’t expensive! However I did find the coolest accessory for her crate so she can have a little water while she waits for my return without making a mess! See pics below and links to order.
4. Poop Stuff - Wild One Holder and Bags $16
Dealing with your little darlings poop will never be fun or pretty. However I tried to find poop bags and a poop bag holder that at least matched my other doggy stuff and made me a little happier.
Here are my recommendations: For a fantastic design and function the Wild One Poop Bag Holder is amazing. Soft feel, strong elastic cording, a screw open bottom for easy reloads, and numerous color options to match your gear! Only $8! Pair it with their silky feeling biodegradable corn starch poop bags and you are ready for poop scooping in style!
5. Puppy PlayYard: Tespo Play Yard $60
When you get a cute little puppy you will need somewhere to put them that is safe and easy to clean up besides a crate!
Maybe you need to wash dishes or make breakfast and not worry about potty accidents while your busy.
A play area that is fenced is the perfect solution. The Tespo play yard can be configured in many ways to fit your home.
It is clear panels and comes with adorable puppy stickers to decorate the side. You can snap it together with the connectors or make it even more sturdy with mini-zip ties.
Since it is clear, it goes with every decor and lets you easily see what is going on at all times!
I highly recommend getting it for smaller dogs prone to accidents, but it is a must for puppies of small breeds.
A word of caution: if you have toddlers or small children this playpen will bend if pushed. As you can see in the picture below, my 3 yr old son bent one of the panel tops. The playpen still functions though.
I hope this helps with your new pup or little darling. As far and leashes, collars, and toys go, there are so many options out there you don’t need my help.
