We're pretty obsessed with our dogs. Almost every decision seems to track back to what Buddy will like, or how he will react to it. For good reason, these four-legged creatures have captured our hearts and sealed a place in our now pet-friendly homes.
That means, we're always on the hunt for gifts for pets. But, of course, it doesn't hurt when these dog gifts work double duty to help our lives too. So this International Dog Day (Aug. 26th), spoil them with these pet-approved picks that may just make dog ownership a little more stylish, and a lot easier.
Living with pets is both a joy and a test. We're keen on keeping our dogs happy, healthy, and adding some pizazz that also doesn't disrupt our core home style. That's where the following list comes in, with stylish and functional essentials for dogs that reward your good boys and keep you home looking fresh too.
1. A perfectly portable dog crate with pad
From everyday comfort to road trips, this Diggs crate couples aesthetics, safety, and convenience into one secure home for your pet. We also adore the complimentary waterproof dog pad that makes cleaning up any upsets a breeze without sacrificing anyone's comfort.
2. A vacuum built to handle the shedding
Dyson V11 Animal | $599
Opt for one of the best vacuums for pet hair to keep your floors, and pet hair, under control with the Dyson V11 Animal. You may even come to love this dust-busting vac as much as your dog...
Packed with power, and up to 60-minutes of runtime, the V11 Animal offers 99.97 percent filtration, which is great for allergy sufferers and the sizeable 0.2 dust bin ensures you can pick up an abundance of hair and debris without pausing to empty.
3. Keep them refreshed with a purified water supply
PetSafe Seaside Stainless Dog & Cat Fountain | $40
There are many reasons to consider a drinking fountain for your pet: the constant stream of water mimics a natural water source and encourages them to drink more while filtration removes pet hair, saliva and unpleasant tastes from the water so its never sitting stagnant. Healthier for your pet, and easy for you to keep clean. One winning combination.
4. For earning style points at the dog park
5. Stimulate and treat your dog at the same time
6. Match with your dog for walks
7. A stylish blanket that'll protect your furniture too
8. An air purifier that will keep your home smelling fresh
Levoit Core P350 Pet Care True HEPA Air Purifier | $120
Banish that animal smell from your home ( you know the one) with one of the best air purifiers to absorb and eliminate pet odors, so your home always smells fresh. The Levoit Core P350 features an H13-HEPA filtration system that reduces up to 99.97% of harmful air pollutants, smoke, pollen, mold spores, dust mites, and other allergens as small as 0.3 microns from the air. It's also ultra-quiet, operating as low as 24 dBa.
9. A pet gate that works with your decor, not against it
