Oooh, you guys. I just love these colorful pet portraits by artist Karren M. Garces! I’m thinking Wrigley and Smash would look mighty swell with a little pop art treatment — what about your pups?

Your Pet and You: A Photographic Portrait Series by Tobias Lang

Kikkerland Dog Contact Lens Case
Cursed with near-perfect vision, I’ve always wanted to wear glasses because, come on, they’re awesome. Contact lenses, though? No, thank you. The idea of purposefully sticking something into my eye wigs me so far out I’m in another time zone. But, you brave souls who do wear contacts, check this out: It’s a little doggie lens case.

This new (and currently free!) weather app greets you with an adorable puppy face every time you open it, no matter how dismal the forecast.
Custom Stitched-Felt Dogs by Eleni Creative
I LOVE THESE. If you’re looking for a fun and unique gift idea for yourself (hey, why not?) or your dog-obsessed friend, consider one of these felt doggies from Eleni Creative! Each fuzzy pup is hand-stitched, hand-stuffed, and designed to look just like your beloved Fido. You can even have multiples made into a hanging mobile! Aaaaamazing.

Dog Stalking: Canine Portraits and Illustrations by Kate Wong
Dog Stalking is a weekly column on Striped Cat Studio, a design and lifestyle blog by Bay Area designer Kate Wong, that features watercolor illustrations of dogs Kate has met during her recent adventures. So far, she has profiled 15 adorable dogs (my favorite might be Chicken, a sweater-wearing Chihuahua mix that will dance and spin for treats) with more added each week.
