leashes

We were already a fan of their pet tees, so I was happy to see American Apparel now branch out into other dog goodies. In line with the company's people picks, they chose bold colors for the furry friends in your life – select The Dog Collar ($15) and The Dog Leash ($12) in these contrasting combos (if you're into the matching thing).

Both collars and leashes come in three different sizes for lil pups to big dogs and, at these prices, you may even pick up a couple spare sets, too.

Attention, attention, new puppy alert! Kelly Osbourne has been spotted over the last couple weeks with this lil furball! The Shiba Inu already has her (his?) wings taking plane trips with mom. Looks like Kelly wasted no time in getting this pup the coolest gear. What products did they travel with? Find out below.

• Even though temperatures don't drop that much in LA, the Gooby Winter Freedom Harness ($30) is a snuggly alternative to traditional reins made of synthetic deer skin and lined with faux fur for an off-to-the-mountains look.
• Then there's no matchy matchy necessary here as the pup also sports a Mascot Old School Repp Lead ($42) in one of six preppy color combos.
• Lastly, she adds a pink piggy to the leash. While Sporky ($15) may appear to be a poop bag holder to an untrained eye, it's actually a dispenser for wet wipes, great for keeping fingers (and paws) clean on the plane.

I love finding celebrity pets' goodies, and it's rare when I'm not 100 percent sure if I've IDed it. So I'm letting you make the call – this Louis Vuitton Monogram Baxter Dog Leash ($330) is currently sold out online but from the product picture and my zoomed-in one of her mini Doxie, the pattern's outline appears slightly off, no?Both pups have matchy matchy collar and leashes – that would total $1,290 if the real thing – in addition to ones that match each other, making this quite the upgrade from the Puppia/bandana combo we've spotted in the past.

Either way, I love seeing her and boyfriend, Albert Hammond Jr., snuggle and kiss (!) the dogs in a cute gallery I've shared when you read more

I know I'm biased here, but I love the product names for Gwen Gear. Based here in San Francisco, the company's collars and leashes are named after streets and neighborhoods in the city by the bay. The company began when the owners got a cutie patootie English Bulldog named – you guessed it – Gwen and were inspired to create this line for their beloved pooch and their beloved city. Check out some of my fave designs below.

Let's say you're bringing Fido to get fit but shoving your wallet, keys, and cell phone in your workout clothes just won't work . . . what's a sporty gal to do? Grab this Bucchi Bag Convertible Dog Leash ($15) that's what. With a pouch big enough to fit all the above items (and pooch's poop bags, too), it snaps to the included leash on all sides, which makes it feel like an extension of your hand and causes less bag bouncing if you pick up the pace.

Then, if you decide to stop for a postrun snack, detach the lead to bring your valuables onto the table and loop the leash around a fixed object when you sit down.

I was taking my usual Sunday stroll though the city with North over the weekend, and stopped into one of my favorite pet shops to find a new line of ultra-cool doggie accessories. Called Rockin' Doggie, these pieces are undoubtedly inspired by rock n' roll, but are stylish enough to wear every day. I loved the guitar pic ID tags adorned with your pup's initial on the front (N for North, of course), and was really digging the leather poop bag holder that comes in a variety of colors.

I'll tell you now that these fashions don't come cheap, but hey – when you're living a wild rockin' lifestyle, you spare no expense. Check out a few of my favorite pieces in the widget below.

OK, I just can't take anymore – this is definitely the luckiest dog in all of Hollywood! I mean first off, they don't come cuter than this scruffball, and with such a great mom, R-Bils, who could ask for more? Seems Thurman Murman isn't wanting for much as he's got yet another new leash for his latest LA adventure, and I'm loving this Ella Dish number in a fab tapestry pattern. Pick one up for your lucky dog, too – it actually comes in two color choices and two lead lengths to choose from ($36), with an optional matching collar if your pup's into that sort of thing.
