Flush Puppies Flushable Doodie Bags
Responsible dog owners pick up after their pet, but picking up poop and throwing it in the trash isn’t ideal (dog poop can contain parasites which pollute surface and ground water). Poop should be flushed, not thrown away! You can do so with Flush Puppies Flushable Doodie Bags ($8). Not only will it be better for the environment, but it will be better for the stench of your trash can.
Premier Easy Walk Dog Harness
Heavy dogs that pull when they walk can be difficult to control, and all dogs that pull against their collar can cause coughing, gagging, or choking. Enter the Premier Easy Walk Dog Harness ($13) – it’s unique front chest D-ring leash attachment stops pulling by steering your dog to the side and redirecting his attention towards you. Now you can walk your dog instead of your dog walking you.

Cat Entertainment Playhouse – Airplane

A playful imagination isn’t just for kids, after all.
