Bear with me here. I know most doggies aren't thinking about going back to school, but let's pretend your dog is getting ready for a big first day – either at a new daycare, playdate, or training class. I wouldn't want too much to interfere with North's playtime so I'm thinking a new collar or sleek tank would be in order, what do you think?

A pom pom hat on a pooch . . .

My ever-dapper lil gentleman looks even more so with this new collar I picked up at
The Hip Hound in Portland over the weekend. I mean, seriously, how much more adoro can he possibly get?I
first mentioned these cute tie collars from
The Good Life a while back, so it's about time I bought one of my his very own. Since he would sport
both a harness and a collar for walkies, it makes a nice addition on special occasions – he got even more awwwws from strangers last night than he usually does .

While
my lil guy was off having a blast, I couldn't get him off my mind. So, when I was doing some shopping in Portland over the weekend, I was delighted to spot this sign.I totally fell for the puppy dog eyes and followed the arrow to an absolutely adoro shop. The
Hip Hound stocks the cutest stuff for your pets from a kitty corner for the felines to a clothesline of gear for your pooches.

Last week I asked all you savvy shoppers and Internet researchers to come
PetMarking on a
kitty toy mission to share which toys were truly the cat's meow. My fave find was this silly catnip toy, the
"Chicata banana" petmarked by
foxie – it's drives her pets insane.
