I have cats, two of them, although on account of their extreme shy-ness they are seldom seen let alone stars of any of my pet photo-shoots. But between the BF and I, and their grandparents, they get gifts too so here are just a few things Santa Paws can feel free drop off this Christmas for their pussycat pleasure!
When a recent tally of your dog's wardrobe reveals that he has four designer dog sweaters (three cashmere, one merino), three dog coats, one pet snood, one bathrobe, seven bandanas, one rucksack harness and no less than nine collar and lead sets… AND you haven't even totted up the content of the toy box, it's fair to say Basil doesn't want for much. However, when faced with such a challenge at gifting season, I say go less essential more luxury, less doggy business more fun. So to that end, I share this year’s wish list for the dog, who has (nearly) everything.
I’ve previously voiced my preference of doggy bandanas over bow ties (refresh in our ‘style guide to doggy neckwear’ post), mainly because the latter tend to get lost on Basil’s pumped up chest. And with all those AW16 trends to nail, and the call to embrace the impending festive season, the doggy bandana is the style hero to see your pup through such occasions.
Basil turned four in September, so when I was asked if I’d like to review the luxury lodgings at dog-friendly 9 Hertford Street in London, I thought 'what better way to spoil his Lordship'.
Last month was crazy busy, so I’ve skipped September and fast-forwarded straight to October. Basil and I have got some exciting posts coming up but this one is dedicated to what’s buzzing around our heads that we think you HAVE TO know about.
When you’re hot-pawing around town from one pawbiz event to another, it's nice to let your fur down and enjoy some dog-friendly adventures in the woods. That’s what #BigEarsBoysClub founding members Basil and Winston did on a recent trip to Epping Forest – an endless landscape of dog-friendly fun.
Sun’s out, fun’s out and we’re sizzling for all kinds of doggy what’s hot-ness. From palm prints for pups to a canine-catered art exhibition, read on for the buys and doggy do’s on our radar this August, and in our carefree, relaxed summer vibe, we've even let the pussycats claw their way in too.
It's no secret - we freakin’ love Winston of @WinnyTheCorgi Instagram fame. His smiley cuteness paired with his clever use of prop-age and puns are a source of joy in our day. Working with his human Rachel for Basil’s recent all-star photo-shoots means that we get to hang out with him fairly often too and we can confirm in addition to his good looks, he’s one swell guy.
