Groovy Dog and Puppy Accessories!

Many people have said that it is in fact “A Dog’s World” and after some research on the Internet, I am beginning to believe it!

My writing assignment was to find some groovy dog accessories and share them with you. I, being the ignorant dog person who I am, made the assumption that it would take a bit of time to find such unique items for the canine social group. Boy was I mistaken. Upon entering cyberspace I was inundated with the most interesting, and at times bizarre, doggie accessories out there. Who comes up with this stuff? Zit cream? I mean really? Who Knew?

I don’t have unlimited space to share with you the zillion dog accessories I discovered, so I have chosen the ones that possibly state the essence of a dog’s personality.

The first accessory I stumbled across brought back memories for me. It is a mood collar for dogs. Made with an embossed leather strap, and adorned with a mood stone that reacts to your pooch’s body heat, this accessory will send you back to the 1970’s. It even comes with a set of instructions that tell you what your pooch is feeling according to color. Red means he is agitated. Dark blue means he is happy. Amber-brown can mean he is nervous and needs to be fed or walked. This is just an example of the many other colors they describe on the list for his moods. The collar may be sold as a novelty, but it sure is groovy!

How about an ecopure spa relaxing bath set for your pooch? I mean after a hard day of chewing your shoes, eating, sleeping, sleeping and chewing some more, I’m sure he could use a nice relaxing spa package. Complete with aromatherapy shampoo, sage aromatherapy spray and a candle, your pet can be pampered and bathed at the same time.

After your doggie’s spa bath and aromatherapy treatment, you wouldn’t want to deprive him of a fluffy terry cloth robe with satin trim would you? The one that I found is made by the American Kennel Club. It is luxurious and is the perfect accessory for your pet.

If your dog isn’t into spa treatments and is aptly named “Killer,” “Moose,” or “Bruiser,” then how about sitting on the couch with dad and having a beer. Yes, you heard me correctly. I said a beer. It is named appropriately Doggy Beer, is manufactured in the USA and is a nutritious alternative to the real stuff. But if man can drink a bottle of suds now and then, man’s best friend can join in the action too. Oh, and if you dog wants to drink his Doggy Beer and eat a hot dog, Nathan’s Famous Hot Dogs sells all beef pet treats for his hot dog cravings. Throw in a pack of Woofy Pop popcorn that comes in a variety of flavors and he will be set. Now there is no excuse for your pet to whine during the Super Bowl.

If you live near water or have a pool, then this is an accessory for your pet that is not only groovy but a necessity. I found a pet saver life jacket. It slips over your pet’s body and has a strap for you to grab for lifting him out of the water. The colors are bright so you can find your furry friend easily. What a clever way to show your dog you care.

I never realized how much fun it was to have a dog! Just seeing all the groovy accessories for them makes me want to go out and purchase some beer and hot dogs for my friend’s pets. Maybe for my next article I will have to do some investigating on cat’s stuff!
