I am all about socially conscious, eco-friendly, yet still-hip products. And the PetPak, a hands-free small pet carrier, is exactly one of these products.
Your small pet (up to 10lbs) will enjoy snuggling with you in this colorful pouch made from repurposed mosquito netting. A removable inside lining is easy to wash and very durable. Your hands will be free with the PetPak, and it features adjustable shoulder straps with over-sized clips that are easy to fasten. It's also liquid resistant.
During our daily walks, Jax is on a mission to take in all of the smells, sites and sounds in the neighborhood. Keeping him focused requires consistency and determination. One thing we learned from our awesome trainer, Matt of Tuff Pup Training is to positively reinforce a behaivor with verbal praise and treats (when appropriate) during our walks.
Carrying doggie treats in my pocket created a crumbly mess. But now I can bring treats on our walk with the Snackpacker on Blue and my pockets stay clean! This cute, durable nylon snack carrier clips on to a belt or a pocket and has a drawstring closure to prevent spillage. This delightful carrier is from the folks at Life is Good and is available in two colors-orange or blue. Get your Snackpacker here and enjoy clean pockets!
If you always give your pet the finest things, check out Sleepypod—a carrier for Very Important Pets. Marketed as a mobile pet bed, Sleepypod is much more luxurious than your average pet bed or carrier.
What makes Sleepypod so indulgent?
To start—the super comfortable shearling bedding. Sleepypod.com offers a low wattage heater that slips under the bedding to keep your pet warm in winter. Or you can remove the plush bedding and insert a mesh hammock allowing cool air to circulate around your spoiled pet.
Aside from having these useful features, Sleepypod is the coolest pet carrier I’ve ever seen. The round, over-the-shoulder style is innovative and fresh. If you and your pet like to look good, you’ll appreciate the striking colors, flawless stitching, and tiny details like the little lamb on the label.
My favorite part of the Sleepypod is the optional Cloudpuff blanket. Made of the softest material, this pet blanket caused a spat between my cat and dog until they finally fell asleep on it together. It’s great to know that when my pets need to leave the house, they can take this little piece of home.
Sleepypod is a lavish everyday bed that goes a step further. When you zip on the dome top, your pet can take its comfy bed on the road. This carrier also has seatbelt loops for extra secure riding in the car. Sleepypod is the ultimate home away from home.

As a mother to an 11 month old baby girl, I know that I never leave the house without my diaper bag. It's my purse, her changing table, toybox and kitchen when she gets hungry. Well, I recently saw a diaper bag for my dog too, on the Pupcentric.com website. The bag is called the E.B.D. Carry-all and it is AMAZING!!! It's called E.B.D., because in the bag you can carry Everything But the Dog. If you are like me, I take my dog out as often as I can. He comes for rides in the car, he goes to the park and he even has overnight stays at his grandparent's house. For those times, that we need to bring a little extra for him besides his leash and collar, this is the bag I take with me. The bag comes with coordinated and collapsible food and water bowls, an indoor/outdoor blanket, a freezable gel pack to keep treats cool and fresh, and tons of pockets. There are pockets for pens, a canister of hand sanitation wipes, a poop bag dispenser, cell phone or MP3 player, and vet records. You can get the bag monogrammed with your pets name and it even comes with a bone shaped carabineer for easy access to your keys. The bag comes in brown with a pink or blue interior. More colors are becoming available soon. So, the next time you're on the go with your dog, don't forget to grab the E.B.D. Carry-all from Pupcentric.com.

I have been doing a lot of holiday shopping lately in my local area malls, and everywhere I go I see the most adorable pets. But these are not real pets (though they look it) -- they are called Perfect Petzzz, the "authentic breathing" pet.
This is a great holiday gift for a friend or family member who wants real pet ownership experience without the hassles and expense. Or for a child who wants a pet but isn't ready to handle the responsibilities of a real pet yet. It would also be a great gift for someone who loves pets but has terrible allergies. Honestly, even people who have "real" pets (like me!) would love one of these adorable creatures sitting around the house. I know in my house my Perfect Petzzzz would be the best behaved child/pet around!
These adorable pets come in a ton of choices for both cat and dog. Almost every breed is represented for dogs, and lots of variations of colors for kitties.
The pets actually truly look real. From their 100% synthetic fur to their features to their little bodies that breath like a real pet when sleeping. Each pet comes with a:
