How Much Does It Cost to Carry a Pet in a Real Ostrich Bag?

June 3, 2008

When I spotted this classy camel-colored bag under the arm of Antonio Sabato at the 7th annual Nuts for Mutts Dog Show and Pet Fair to benefit New Leash on Life, I made it my morning mission to locate a similar faux ostrich bag. Even though Antonio's lucky pooch gets a mock ostrich carrier, little did I know that my search for it would lead me to an authentic ostrich pet carrier . . . with an equally shocking price tag. Can you guess how much that bag costs? Don't worry, there's a picture included next to the question below.

Antonio is thinking, "I love this dog, but what the hell is an ostrich, and do they sell them at Nordstroms'?"

I'm sure that dog greatly appreciates the fact that an animal was killed so that his owner could feel cool carrying him around.

I have issues with him carrying his dog in a bag. Too feminine for me. Im so used to women doing this, its just too..no thanks. He is hot as hell however. As for the ostrich bag (the real one that is) I have no issues with using real ostrich - I have an issue with the price tag, but as we know, anything made of real ostrich is very pricey anyway.

Yes, Antonio's is not real. I was looking for it online when I discovered that someone actually sells a real ostrich pet carrier – I was so shocked by this, I had to pass it along.

It says that Antonio's bag is FAUX ostrich. So no harm no foul there.

That's a great way to honor the animal friend in your life.... by wrapping him up with the carcass of another animal friend.

That is INSANE!!!! What is so special about ostrich, is it soft??

That price is disgusting too - that's more than my boyfriend makes in a year as a part-time cook. I just couldn't waste money like that - isn't there a worthwhile charity - maybe one that helps pets in need - that the money could go to? Sometimes I really hate our culture....

Thank you, Ruby, that's exactly what I was going to say! Ladybird would smell it and give me a sad ook - she doesn't want to ride around in dead animal! Also, won't a dog chew on the leather?
