A new fashion industry is on the rise as you read this and you won’t see it in the big fashion magazines. It is the huge growth market of style made especially for dogs. In the past, dog collars were manufactured to have little to do with how they looked and everything to do with how functional they were. In contrast, sparkles and shiny, soft materials have been created to appear on items that are unexpected.

Rhinestones are the hottest new trend to find themselves on almost everything for your furry little friend. Several manufacturers are designing collars with varying patterns and colors of sparkling rhinestones. Multi colored and solid colored stones are added in patterns and rows to create a piece of jewelery. There are also jewelery charms that can be attached to the front of the collars to make a fancy statement.

Velvet collars are also a new trend, which can stand alone or be coordinated with rhinestones. They come in a variety of colors and can even be fitted for larger dogs. Charms are also popular on these shiny bands. The soft texture of these collars are a real contrast to the collars used for training purposes, which require chains.

Clothing for dogs is not new, however, sweaters were the main stay for these fashionistas. Well, a lot has changed in recent years with regard to choices. Dogs now can wear jackets, Halloween costumes, dresses and even scarves. Rain gear is available from the hat and jacket to the four pack of galoshes.

Even what you put your dog’s food in has become flashy. The rhinestone theme is not subject to just fabric. We are now seeing the dog bowls for food and water containing rhinestone decorations. These are also for large and small breeds and they just may be that perfect accessory to your dog’s sparkling style you have been looking for.

Don’t forget the leash, now available in the sparkling jewels matching the collars. The different lengths and colors will give you many choices depending on your needs and desires. Your pooch never looked so good.

The dog days of summer can be a fashion season all its own. Walking or carrying your dogs with sparkling dog collars add a little something extra and are eye catching. These accessories are relatively inexpensive and are fun and functional.

But there are also not-so-pleasant aspects of having a young dog, such as instances that your pet doesn't make it out the door before mature calls. Often times it's a of the pets owner forgetting to let the dog out. Other times it is because the dog is too young and doesn't know any better. There is one tried and true way to potty train a puppy that works better than any other methods. Piddle pads or dog training pads are available in with antibacterial action that decrease odors with sealed edges and draws off moisture fast for quick and easy housetraining and more floor protection. These pads are perfect for housetraining puppies, when leaving small dogs for longer periods of time or for around litter boxes and can be found at discount pet supplies. One of the best ways to train a dog to go outside was by swatting him on the nose or behind with a newspaper every time that he went inside and putting him out into the backyard. This is negative reinforcement theory at work for potty training. The only problem with that method of how to potty train a puppy is that it will likely make your feel terrible swatting your puppy. You may fell like an absolute knuckle head. One way that requires no discipline is that taking the dog out at the same time, three times a day. It works because the dog would get used to going outside and would do its business out there. That may sound great but who has the time? For stay at home moms it works since they have all day at their disposal. Another way is to put down newspaper for the dog to go on, and then each day, gradually move that paper closer to the back door. The idea is that eventually the dog will automatically go to the back door where you can let him out. By staying disciplined in training you dog you'll find that a little patience and a lot of newspaper works best. It may take a number of days, but there is no discipline involved, and you do not have to worry about following a rigid dog walking schedule. There are even special potty strips and patches available on pet supply stores for those that need their dog to go potty inside their home or apartment.
