Pups are like a member of the family, and we only want the best for our loved ones. If you’re after a bit of a splurge for the hound, we’ve compiled a list of the best ways to pamper your puppy. After all, doesn’t man’s best friend deserve a touch of luxury?
1. Food
Gone are the days of a measly bowl of kibble. Humans have access to gourmet meals and organic ingredients, so why shouldn’t our four-legged friends? The Pet Chef, Australia’s first take-away pet restaurant, has compiled a menu of high quality, freshly sourced snacks for dogs. The menu includes tasty treats such as turkey, beef kidney, chicken, and seasonal vegetables. Also available are minced raw beef cheek and “a touch of tongue,” because our adventurous pets deserve exotic options as well. If you’d like your mutt to eat like a king, international designer Versace offers a Barocco pet bowl for $754 AUD.
