New Year of Gifts: Doggie Driver
If getting fit is a petsolution in your family, and someone else has already clamored for doggie walk duties, let another family member get doggie driver responsibilities. Brookstone's new Doggie Driver ($29.95) works like a golf club, while also throwing a tennis ball up to 300 feet. Have pooch sit and wait at a safe distance while you work on your follow through, his doggie instincts take over as he fetches it back, and then the modified golf club even snaps up the ball for you, saving your swing hand from slobber.

New Year of Gifts: Instinctive Cats
The holiday gift giving season may be near over, but your favorite feline still deserves some treats! If you happen to have a frisky, instinctive cat — or know someone that does — you can never go wrong with toys that spark playful fun and a little exercise.
I love the Fling-ama-String, a $25 battery-operated cat toy that aims to improve "paw eye coordination" and keep your cat on the move.

Love Me . . . Love My Sock Monkey
In addition to all the fun (New Year's) and not so fun (broken windows) things going in January so far, North and I had plenty of company! Among our guests were an old college roommate and her boyfriend. Because they live all the way in Hong Kong, I had never met their super cute pooch, Lola, but I knew that I still had to buy the lass an pawsitivitely perfect pressie.
