Step – In Sailor
Step in harnesses are a fantastic selection for summer or warm weather climates. The breathable fabrics help to keep pups from overheating while the temperatures rise. Few styles scream summer like the nautical look so when we came across the Sail-A-Way step in harness we just couldn’t resist!! The harness features a mesh backing to wick moisture and excess heat away while the lightweight breathable cotton exterior provides the perfect canvas for alternating stripes. Each harness wouldn’t be complete without a stationary nautical top knot and can be selected in either blue or red. Fashion aside, the Sail-A-Way step in harness is incredibly easy to adjust with the movement of one toggle the harness is perfectly fitted to ensure comfort and safety with every use. As an added bonus the harness also features a matching but removable 4′ lead. We love it!!
Tag Your It
I can’t stress the importance of properly tagging your dog enough!! Yesterday, as I left my home and began traveling to work I noticed a Yorkie walking in the road. My first thought was “holy smokes” then I collected myself. I pulled the car over as I was worried the dog would be hit by a car and called him. He quickly scampered over and thank goodness he had a tag that clearly stated his name – address and phone number. He actually traveled close to 4 miles away from his home over a little more than 12 hours and his parents were worried to death over him (naturally, wouldn’t we all). In the past we have not carried charms that accept engraving or that can be easily marked with your dog’s information. After this experience we will concentrate our immediate efforts on finding unusual, trendy and fun ID tags that you and your pooch will adore and be eager to use but they will also serve as a a functional resource if your pooch ever finds himself/herself a stray from home!!

Little Dog – Big World
Being a tiny dog is a lot like a being 5′5″ woman (take it from me, I am one) trying to find jeans. At the risk of sounding like Goldie-locks they are either too long – too short but they are never just right!! The same holds true for tiny dogs most toys and bowls are just way too big for them and collars forget about it…The buckle is usually bigger than the dogs entire neck!! Good news…It may require a little digging but finally designers are answering the call of tiny pups!! We found the most darling itsy bitsy bowls which are available in pink, blue, or pink leopard and they are just the perfect size for the tiniest pampered pooches!! If playtime is what your petite pup craves try the Sweet Pals and Little Friends toy collections these teeny toys max out at just 3.5″ in length!! Then for the daunting task of collar or harness shopping we love Susan Lanci’s Ultrasuede collars. They are so lightweight and feature a streamline buckle plus they have fabulously fun adornments check out our favs…The Cupcake Cheer and Jolly Roger!! If you prefer a harness, you can’t go wrong with a step in harness and we just love the new nylon variety…Here’s a few we can’t get enough of…The Floral Burst, Daisy Doodle, and Sunburst Dots!!
A Little Pick Me Up
Step-In Time
Charmed I’m Sure
A fun and inexpensive way to keep your pup’s look fresh and ever-changing is with collar charms. For the pooch that adores a splash of flash rhinestone Initial Pendants, Bling Bones, or Bling Hearts are an excellent choice. Of course a Crown charm is always fit for four-paw royalty and for the pup with attitude their are plenty of “statement” charms. If your pooch takes a deeper approach to life they might enjoy the St. Francis or Breast Cancer charms. With so many styles to choose from you might just find a daily charm rotation is in order.
Ultrasuede…Ultra fab!!
Hipster hounds adore Susan Lanci’s collection of Ultrasuede collars designed with the small dog in mind. Susan utilizes a variety of bright and refreshing colors coupled with splash of flash from hand-placed genuine Swarvoski crystals to create a simple yet bold cheerful look. Why Ultrasuede you ask? The answer is simple…Ultrasude is a fabric frequently used in home furniture for it’s amazing wear and irresistible softness. Perhaps, some of its most desirable qualities are it won’t wrinkle or waterspot in rain or snow and to boot its machine washable…Now how fab is that!! Our sampling of Susan Lanci’s Ultrasuede collar collection includes the Jolly Roger pink skulls, Sparkle Paws a Swarvoski crystal traditional paw print design, the spicy Southwestern Flair featuring chili pepper appliqués, Cupcake Cheer a scrumptiously happy and fun design, and finally a baby blue Skull Fever collar. We invite you to view our collection and indulge your pooch in a new collar with unmatched quality – design – or style.
