I have spent a lot of time trying to find something cute and stylish to protect my dog on walks in the rain. I was so happy to come upon this darling dog rain coat set - can’t believe it has a matching hat too! My dog is mid-sized so it’s an extra bonus that you guys carry so many sizes. Now even on a rainy day we get our exercise and look great at the same time. I’ll tell my friends - keep up the good work!
Sixty three percent of all American homes include a pet, and not surprisingly, dogs and cats are the preferred choices. According to a recent article in the San Francisco Chronicle, we will have spent an estimated $40 billion by the end of 2007 doubling the amount spent 10 years ago. There are several reasons for this notable increase.
• Since 9/11, people are seeking comfort, and that’s what a pet can provide, says Bob Vetere, president of the American Pet Product Manufacturers Assoc.
• Baby boomer demographic: When baby boomers send their children off to college, they become “doting pet owners,” says Vetere. People in their 60’s and older are also aware of the health benefits of pets such as lower blood pressure and better heart health.
The minute I took Kelsie for a walk in her new stunning dog coat set, all eyes were on her. I love the red piping detail and matching tam with the red pompom. Watch out Julia Roberts! Everyone asks me where I got this darling ensemble and I’ll be sure to tell them!
I’ve always felt bad putting harnesses on my dogs knowing that the straps couldn’t possibly be that comfortable. Now that I have free and open access to this huge selection of quality vests there won’t be anymore uncomfortable walks or runs in the park with my dogs. And the bright colors make them easily identifiable when we’re out and about.
The pink polka-dot dog harness is our favorite and it keeps her comfortable as long as she needs to wear it. And with the price I couldn’t feel good about giving her anything less.
I was pretty excited to see that you guys even offered a doggy twist on the ever-popular hooded sweatshirt. Not only do the high quality materials keep my dog comfortable, the precise sizing for a large dog and excellent design give her freedom of movement and breath-ability. No more worrying about her having enough guard against the wind with this one.
Everyone who sees her thinks it’s just the greatest thing too. A hooded dog sweatshirt is certainly a novelty and at this price there’s just no reason not to get more. I’ll be ordering more soon, for my dogs, my friends and my family. I’ll be sure to let everyone know exactly where I got it!
When I first encountered clothing for pets I thought it might be a novel idea. It never dawned on me that some pet-clothing might actually have practical purposes aside from that. With the way the weather’s been up here it’s pretty tough for my dogs to adjust to the freezing cold when the day before was in the 60s. That isn’t much of an issue now, though. Ever since I found you guys I’ve been able to help my dogs stay warm and cozy no matter how cold it is.
The sparkles bulky dog sweater is not only an affordable solution for my temperature challenged pups, it also looks great no matter where they go. The neighbors think it’s adorable and are even thinking of getting some stuff for their dog! Thanks guys.
