This is a really big dog bed. It's huge. Usually, it's hard to find a good quality dog bed for a great dane or any other huge breed, but this one should be big enough for any beast.
It comes in several sizes, but the "Giant" size measures 84 inches long, 48 inches wide, and is filled with 8 inches of SuperSupport® orthopedic foam. It's also got a raised headrest on the top end of the bed. Comes in 9 different colors.
Prices start at $139.95 for the Small size, and go up to $399.95 for the Giant size. Shipping is free.
"The Simpsons" co-creator Sam Simon spends a fortune of his own money helping stray dogs to a better life. He talks to 60 Minutes about his dog shelter and the show that makes it possible.
The idea behind this seat is that it doubles as a doggie bed in your home. This way, when you take Fluffy for a ride, she can have her favorite resting place on the road as well.
The Dog Adoption Network claims to be a website that teaches the world about the benefits of adopting a dog over buying from the pet store. The person who created the website says they wrote the articles on the website culled from their experience as a dog owner and care provider.
Looking through the website, there is indeed a lot of articles on the subject of adopting a dog. But when you see a website title that includes the word, "Network", you get a sense that its some kind of organization that operates or certifies dog adoption centers.
But it doesn't appear to be that way. It's really just articles that encourage you to adopt a dog.
If you know someone who wants to buy a puppy from the pet store, or from a breeder, then you could send the link to this website to them for their consideration. That might be best way to use this website.
But I also think this website does a pretty good job of leveraging the algorithms of search engines (Google, Yahoo, MSN) to attract visitors, and then directing to those visitors to its Google text advertisements. And keyphrases of "dog adoption" and "adopting a dog" are very popular search terms. But I digress...
For what it is, a site that promotes the adoption of unwanted dogs, it's a great site. But content about dog adoption is all over the Internet as it is. I'm not sure if this site is going to do a better job of explaining the concept over the thousands of other articles on other dog websites.
I would like to see a blog on this site that provides weekly articles of tips, news, and commentary on the subject of dog adoption. That would give the site the character of its author, and give it the appearance of being "alive". That will probably achieve its goals far better than what it is right now. But if the author plans to keep the site static in its current state, it'll probably do a better job of making money from Google ads than it will to save dogs from the hypodermic needle.
But the doggie world could always use another champion in the area of dog adoption. Will Dog Adoption Network be such a champion? Maybe time will tell.
A fellow by the name of Vincent Strangio has an online store of t-shirts, sweatshirts, mousepads, throw pillows and note cards, all with his doggie photography.
Honestly, I don't know who Vincent Strangio is, other than someone who paid for this sponsored post. Well OK, his website does explain who he is, and it sounds like one of those stories where this really hardworking upper-management guy who helps make other people rich, decided he got fed up with the business world, started reading the Bible, and found a new life selling t-shirts with dogs on them.
You know, one of those kinds of guys.
But if you like t-shirts (and other stuff) with your favorite dog breed on them, why not get a Vincent Strangio? His quality IS unmatched. Here is what he said to me...
I am a pet photographer and sell merchandise made with my photos. They are unlike all the same designs you see sold everywhere else and the quality is unmatched.
So, I happen to own a beagle, and naturally took a look at his beagle designs. They do look pretty good, very lifelike. However, none of his beagles look like my Mia. If I were to purchase one of these shirts, she'd probably get jealous that I have a new #2 in the pack.
That's ok, I don't really wear doggie t-shirts anyways. But if you do, I highly recommend getting a Vincent Strangio.
Hey! That's sounds like it should be some kind of name-brand luxury item. If someone asks you about your doggie t-shirt, turn your nose up into the air, and say, "It's a Vincent Strangio".
