This fancy pop-up sushi bar for dogs proves we’re now subservient to our pets

If you’ve already bowed to your dog’s every whim, buying them a highly opulent Moncler parka, a water bottle you can share, and a sexy, calming leotard, why stop there? 

Ditch the canned dinner and take Rex to a slick sushi bar just for dogs. (Yes, we’re talking about real, quality fish. Jealous?)

Opening for one day on Dec. 3 in Parnell’s Heard Park, the pop-up will feature three sittings of 10-12 dogs per session, with each sitting organised by pup size — imagine watching a Pomeranian attempt to get a look at an Alaskan Malamute party.

Dog owners will love this puppy paw cleaner

TwitterFacebook

The ‘Paw Wash’ is a polycarbonate tube with a squeegee that’s intended to easily clean your dog’s paws.

After your dog’s finished playing outside, lift the cap and add pet soap, and go to work. The up-and-down motion creates a suction, which the creator says lathers the paw effectively. Read more…
