HAPPY TAILS:

By Lori Zelenko

It’s tailgating time again! That rite of Fall that signals Football is gearing up and Baseball is winding down (or revving up - if your team is in The World Series). So as you chow down on those wings and sizzle up a steak, don’t forget Fido. First of all, keep an eye on your dog’s safety, all that cheering for the home team might spook them. It goes without saying a runaway dog would put a damper on good times. And do make sure they are nowhere near the grill; an injured pup is definitely not fun. But after safety, keeping them looking swell is an entertaining priority. We thought we’d share a few of our fave looks and the most fun toys perfect for this time of year when we can’t wait to root for the home team. From football toys to team jerseys, PET LIFESTYLES has picked the looks (and toys) to love when you and Fido are heading to the big game. Happy Tails!
