Dog Collars Galoure

Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

A new fashion industry is on the rise as you read this and you won’t see it in the big fashion magazines. It is the huge growth market of style made especially for dogs. In the past, dog collars were manufactured to have little to do with how they looked and everything to do with how functional they were. In contrast, sparkles and shiny, soft materials have been created to appear on items that are unexpected.

A hot, new trend right now is adding rhinestones to just about everything. There are several manufacturers of dog collars that are filling the collars with patterns of colorful rhinestones. Layers of solid colored or multi colored stones to add sparkle. Charms are also relatively new and interesting addition to the collar phenomenon. Little pieces of jewelry attach to the front to make a real fashion statement.

Velvet collars are also a new trend, which can stand alone or be coordinated with rhinestones. They come in a variety of colors and can even be fitted for larger dogs. Charms are also popular on these shiny bands. The soft texture of these collars are a real contrast to the collars used for training purposes, which require chains.

In the past, dog clothing was limited to little sweaters. That has changed in a big way, as the choices have been expanded. You can now purchase dresses, hats and jackets. Some dog owners choose to match their clothing with their pet’s. There is even doggie rain gear for when he or she needs a walk and the weather is on the wet side.

Feeding bowls have even started to carry the rhinestone theme. The simple dishes of the past are long gone and replaced by fashionable and colorful selections. Sizes for large and small dogs are available for whatever type of dog you are wanting to feed with style. A beautiful jeweled collar will be complimented with a jeweled feeding bowl.

Don’t forget the leash, now available in the sparkling jewels matching the collars. The different lengths and colors will give you many choices depending on your needs and desires. Your pooch never looked so good.

The dog days of summer can be a fashion season all its own. Walking or carrying your dogs with sparkling dog collars add a little something extra and are eye catching. These accessories are relatively inexpensive and are fun and functional.

Find the choices you have for dog collars by shopping online. Many types of pet collars are offered at wonderful prices. Head online now for your needs.

Dog Strollers can Enhance Pet-Owner Relationship

Friday, May 28th, 2010

Many who opt to not have children, or whose kids have already left the house, now include one or more canines as family members. This trend has increased the number of items on the market to extend the amount of time your pup can spend with you, and add to the places you can take your beloved canine. Durable and well-designed dog strollers are one of these devices that help you spend more quality time or add to adventures with your pooch.

A dog stroller allows you to take a young puppy or an older canine that would tire quickly for a full day outside. Pet buggies can provide a more enjoyable experience for both you and your dog. Young puppies should not be subjected to long jaunts on hard surfaces until they are over six months old. Their growing bodies are more prone to injuries as that get older if they are taken on long runs or encouraged to jump repetitively at a too young age. However, you need to get nosey and energized pups more exercise or mental stimulation in order to keep them out of trouble and tire them out. This can also be true for older dogs and those recovering from surgery or an injury. By taking your new puppy or older pooch out for shorter walks, broken up by breaks riding in a stroller, you will both be able to find enjoyment and appropriate amounts of activity.

It is entirely possible to purchase a pet stroller without spending a fortune. Prices vary with the lower end being very simple models. Mid-range buggies have a variety of desirable features, or if you prefer all the bells and whistles for your pampered pup, expect to spend quite a bit more. There are a multitude of dog strollers on the market. They can be purchased locally at your pet shop or big box retailer where you can try them out. Or, you can shop for every model and option out there on the internet. A popular auction site lists nearly 900 available dog strollers.

The design and construction of a dog stroller varies. Stroller capacity ranges from 15 to 150 pounds. Some have built-in shock absorbers and airless tires to accommodate off-road and rugged terrain. Others are designed similar to jog strollers often used for infants. There are also bike attachment options, and three or four-in-one types that allow you to go from using it as a crate, pet carrier, car seat and stroller. If you have more than one dog, double-deck options that place one dog above the other, each in their own compartment are available. Most have padded areas and leash clips to help your pup ride in comfort and stay securely inside. Another option is whether you want your dog completely contained behind strong mesh webbing, or the option of opening up the top to allow sun or petting access. Consider whether you will be using it in rain or snow. If so, select models that are waterproof or wind resistant.

Some nice, but not absolutely necessary, features to think about are fashion colors to match your clothing or that visibly describe your dog to those passing by. Cup holders for your coffee or sports drink, as well as cargo decks or pouches to carry treats, jackets and bowls are also useful. Options to seriously consider include those that make your adventure safer. Think about adding flashing led lights, or reflective tape to make you more visible at night.

Some dogs, especially smaller ones, will enjoy the ride immediately. Larger or more active breeds may need a bit of training or coaxing. Using a pet buggy should be a positive and fun experience for your pet. Always encourage use through verbal praise and reward, rather than negative scolding or yelling. You want your pup to get excited every time you set the stroller near the door. By starting with short walks the first few times, followed by offering a treat or favorite toy, your pup will be happily hopping in his buggy in no time.

Dog strollers are nice, but remember your pup still needs to be taken on regular walks or spend time in off-leash play areas. A stroller allows your pooch to stay outside longer and spend more time with you on a variety of outings. It also is a wonderful benefit for young puppies as well as senior dogs with arthritis. However, regular exercise is still vital to maintaining proper canine health and fitness.
