Monopoly Game for Dog Lovers

Dog Monopoly gameHere’s a toy for the humans instead of for the dogs: Dog-opoly.

It’s a spinoff of the Monopoly game you grew up with, only it’s designed for the pet lover.

“It has all the fun of a traditional real estate trading game with some dog-eat-dog twists. Here’s how to play: Buy your favorite dogs, then collect Dog Houses and trade them in for Big Bones. The back of each Dog Deed is filled with facts about the dog. Sounds easy, but along the way you may land on KENNEL…you’re sent to the kennel and you’re out of the game for three turns.”

$25 from the Spoon Sisters

Monogrammed Dog Life Vest = Safety & Style

Posted in Pet safety at 3:11 pm by Pet Luxury

dog life vestContrary to popular belief, dogs aren’t born knowing how to swim. They can eventually figure out the doggy paddle on their own, but that takes some practice–just as when humans learn how to swim. And dogs can tire quickly if they have to swim far. That’s why a dog life vest is important if you and your pets will be around the water this summer.

And as long as you’re thinking pet safety, why not think of luxury and style as well? This monogrammed dog life vest from Horchow has a sleek yet effective design.

“Protect your pup poolside or lakeside with this super-soft, vinyl-coated foam flotation device. May be personalized in style shown; specify single initial. Available in sizes XS(8″-11″), S(11″-15″), M(15″-19″).”

Sounds like a nice item to me. If you’re heading out to the lake or the river, and Fido is coming along with you, don’t be caught without a life vest.

This particular model is $89:
