pet product reviews - Handmade dog and cat Collars, by The Hydrant
today I had the opportunity to introduce to you The Hydrant. The Hydrant is it's rondo-based company that specializes in the most unique, stylish collars leashes and pet accessories. All of which are handmade with exquisite detail. I was fortunate to have been sent a sample of one of three collars and have actually been stopped on the street while I walk my dog asking where I got that adorable collar. All of the collars and leashes are made of 100% cotton so the collar is soft to the touch and soft for your pet. The fabric that is used comes from famous designers such as Alexander Henry J. McCarroll Heather Ross and more. Every item is adjustable and quadruple stitched at stress points. This prevents breaking and and prolongs durability.
Now the real selling point for me are the metal buckles. You will never go back to a collar with a plastic buckle again. The buckles are welded and secure, easily into place. They don't bend. They don't chip. They don't crush like so many other plastic buckles I've used. Surprisingly the buckle despite being metal is extremely light. And now I never have to worry if my dog pulls that the collar will break and he'll run away.
I happen to especially love the collar that has a reflective badge on it. This way any oncoming cars will see us as we walk at night.
If you consider yourself fashion forward, and style is important to you, you must get a collar from The Hydrant. prices range from $15-$25and you can purchase directly on their website http://thehydrant.wordpress.com/shop/ While you are there check out their amazinggift items.

Pet Product Review - IDTAG.com
What is the least expensive pet insurance you can get? Well a simple ID tag is a affordable and effective. My recommendation for today, IDTAG.com.
Each year, nearly 8 million pets are lost and delivered to animal shelters around the country. The sad thing is 75% of these pets are never recovered and end up euthanized. Since more and more people are traveling with their pets during the holidays, or hiking in warm weather, we should all be thinking of better ways to keep our best friends safe. IDTAG.com are stylish little tags that have on the back an IDTAG.com identification serial number.
If a pet is ever lost, an instant alert is sent to local shelters and rescues within 50 miles of the pet's last known location. IDTAG.comwill also notify customers which shelters have been contacted. This way they can contact them directly. The service will even call up to 6 emergency contacts numbers to alert you when your pet is found.
IDTAG.com has fashionable designs for both dogs and cats. You should go to www.IDTAG.com to order yours. It's an easy 1-call or online sign up. You can buy your tag there and enroll for multiple levels of subscription. The subscription plan for IDTAG.com is free for the first six months with the purchase of IDTAGs ($7.99 - $9.99) plus a $1.99 activation fee.

Pet Products Review - ipuppyone soft harnesses for dogs
So my little Charlie is getting bigger. He enjoys his walks and now likes to explore and play in the grass. So I figured it was time to upgrade his harness. My choice this go around was the Air Flex soft harness by ipuppyone.
The ipuppyone Air-Flex harness features both an adjustable neck and body belt. It is 100% polyester mesh, machine wash and dry, with logo patch on the chest. I chose this vest because it was incredibly light weight and for the hot summer, has lots of ventilation. The last vest I had was neoprene and could cause heat around the chest for a hairy dog like mine.
I bought my ipuppyone vest at my local pet store, but you can one online for the same price of $19.95 at ClothingYourPet.com here is the link for the vest with proper sizing information: http://clothingyourpet.com/catalog/ipuppyone-Air-Flex-Hot-Pink-p-16311.html
Here is my adorable Charlie wearing his ipuppyone vest:

Pet Product Review -PetSak by PuchiBag
Summer is coming to a close, and Vogue's September edition will soon be at our doorstep. This means its time for fall fashion, get ready! But what's the point of being stylish if you're pup is not trendy and stylish. Lucky for us there is PetSak by PuchiBag.
Can I tell you this bag is wonderful! Anna Wintour would agree for sure. First, the patterned design is up to date and great for all seasons. Next, despite the very sturdy canvas and nylon mesh construction, the bag is very light weight. Leashes, bones or toys may be adhered to the bag with attached velcro fasteners.
There is enough space for a dog up to 15 lbs to trave with luxurious comfort:
Width: 15"
Depth: 5 1/2"
So no more hiding your little pup when you travel. Strut with style. In fact, this is the same bag that was featured in movies such as MGM's "Legally Blonde" and numerous publications (including InStyle, US Weekly, Vogue, Marie Claire and The New York Times). PuchiBag, think Function, Fashion and Fabulous!!!!
