Found! It's a New Day and New Leash for Thurman Murman

PetSugar — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 00:30:00 -0700

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.

In the Spotlight: Celebs (and Pets) Come Bark For The Cure

PetSugar — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 07:00:21 -0700

Hi, foxy Roxy! This cutie pie Pomeranian came out for the First Annual Bark For The Cure 5K/Canine Celebration with mom, Carmen Electra.

Sponsored by the Freshpet Foundation, the event (and nonprofit) supports nutritional research in the areas of prevention, care and treatment of canine cancer. The organization gives grants to veterinary colleges or research institutions doing work and helping find ways to hopefully one day cure this disease.

Shop Spotlight: North's at Pet Camp!

PetSugar — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 11:10:33 -0700

I've alluded to my fave home-away-from-home for my lil guy in other posts, but I've never taken the time to explain why I love it so much. First off, North's practically a celebripup at Pet Camp – I think his hyperactivity must be pretty impossible to forget! I always feel comfortable dropping him off there and I know he's having a blast.What's he doing you ask? He's scampering on artificial turf with a playground that rivals many parks for two-legged kids with slides, tunnels, and other equipment for him to explore. There's both a group and individual yards for friendly or friendless days on over 6,000 square feet of outdoor fun!

To find out what special treats they offer read more.

Once dogs get back inside, there are plenty of add-ons for your most pampered pal – VIP playtime, swimming sessions, Yappy Hour (cold doggie beer served in a frosted bowl with a bully stick), and Bizzie Bones (PB frozen Kong). North's favorite is something called a pupsicle – it's a homemade recipe similar to this one except theirs has bananas, too. Mmmm.

While I'm spending the weekend celebrating a friend's birthday in Portland, I know North is off having a great time, too! They'll be composting his poop to generate electricity, treating him well, and snapping his photo – I hope to see his next Camper Cameos when I get back!

Sienna and Bess Have a Girls' Day Out

PetSugar — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 04:00:11 -0800

Just two gals out for a Fall stroll, nothing to see here. Oh, who I am kidding, I'm happy to see so much of Sienna and Bess stateside, with her favorite red leash! I'm missing Porgy, but are you secretly hoping he's home with Jude?
Whether or not they're sharing custody, or if she's just not a fan of juggling two leashes, I hope her other dog has an equally fancy leash - while a vegetable-dyed, Eco-Leather Flat Stitch Lead ($26) in red looks smashing against dark fur, I think the lighter-colored pup would look dashing in a forest green hue to make the color pop!

Check out plenty more pics when you read more.

Found! January Jones's Roped Leash

PetSugar — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 15:45:38 -0800

This shaggy black dog sports a rosy lead with his leading lady mom, Mad Men star, January Jones, aww! While you may not be a fan of matchy-matchy leashes for your pet, the lucky dog has a fancy leash that coordinates with a pretty and pink purse . . . and I've sniffed it out.

The Aspen Pet Mountain Dog Leash ($23) is extra durable, with the rope style extending to the handle to make it a comfortable option for your hiking adventures and it comes in red, black, or blue combos in addition to the pink and gray style that January carries.

As season three of the popular series wrapped up last night, perhaps she'll have a bit of a break for more furry QT with this adorable dog in the coming months - check out more pics of the duo below.

Noah Carries His Ball While Zachary Quinto Takes the Bags

PetSugar — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 08:00:02 -0700

I know most dogs are super excited for walk time, and Noah's so into it, he's got his toy, too! Can't forget a ball for impromptu fetch games, after all. This cute Irish Wolfhound/Airedale Terrier mix had a standard-sized yellow tennie tucked in his teeth as this twosome strolled around LA over the weekend.

It's nice to see Zachary Quinto modeling good dog ownership with blue poop bags and a holder, but I wonder if they stopped at a park to play or if Noah hasn't worked on drop it yet. Either way, there are more cute piccys to check out below!

Mischa and Ziggy Take a Flexi(ble) Flight to The Beautiful Life

PetSugar — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 13:10:09 -0700

What better flying companion than a pooch! Mischa Barton took off from LA with best pal, Ziggy, on their way to begin filming The Beautiful Life in NYC.

Sadly we can't see the surely stylin' collar, but I do spot what looks like an older model Flexi for her tiny Tibetan Spaniel - the retractable leads come in a rainbow of colors with cord or tape models available. Since they're in public, Mischa keeps the pooch on a short leash, but these range up to 26 feet long! If you're still unsure about the controversial style, check out more pictures of the twosome's JFK arrival below.

To The Rescue: Think Like Goldilocks When Picking Collars

PetSugar — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 11:00:46 -0700

At first glance, I though Chris Henchy was holding this pooch by a Martingale since there was so much excess material. But, when zooming it, it's clear that the Shields-Henchy pet has a rather large collar. Eeks!

While it's important to not be too tight (since that can irritate the skin, restrict breathing, or even cause hair loss in the area), attaching a loose collar can let pups slip away.

If you're in the market for a new one, here are some things to remember before you hit the stores:

Measure your dog first, especially if he's not shopping alongside you. Since collars should fit the dog's neck, use a tape measure to check the diameter a couple inches above his shoulder blades.

Get the rest when you read more.

Add two or three inches to your measurement and that's the collar size you want. Remember, it should never be able to slip over the pup's head.
Count the available holes. Don't buy a collar when only the last buckle fits the pet - it's better to have one that can be adjusted smaller and bigger than the size that just barely fits.
