Well, February is upon us, which means we’re being assaulted with hearts and Cupids and “every kiss begins with Kaayyyyyy” at every turn. Even though I’m married and in love and all that jazz, Valentine’s Day usually makes me want to kick things. When you think about it, though, we all have the best Valentines around — our pups! I mean, they actually show us what love is all about, and they don’t care a thing about cards and roses and diamonds. We’ve rounded up some great Valentine’s Day items for you and your pup.

Clockwise from top left: Organic crocheted ball by Hip Doggie from Baxter Boo, pop hearts dog collar by Up Country from Muttropolis, conversation hearts squeaky toys, at Petsmart, Ramona heart dog bed from Doggie Vogue, Archie the Dog letterpress notecards at PaperSource, “mom” dog charm by Doggles from Baxter Boo, Red Dingo stainless steel heart tag at PupLife, talking rose dog toy from Artful Pups.

West Paw Design doesn’t introduce new toys often, but when they do, they usually hit the nail right on the head. Or the dog on the nose. (Please don’t hit your dog on the nose.) West Paw’s latest offering, Twiz, is a funky-shaped toss, tug, and chew toy that aims to make your standard game of fetch a little more interesting. Twiz flies through the air, bounces unpredictably and even floats — and you can untwist Twiz’s handles to reveal a spot to stash a secret treat surprise for your pup. Twiz is made in the good ol’ USA from recyclable materials and is nontoxic and BPA- and phthalate-free. Cherry on top? It’s dishwasher-safe and guaranteed against dog damage. See it in action in this video, and fetch it from West Paw Design.

Lazybonezz was founded in 2008 by a design-savvy mother and daughter team wanting to create dog products to complement the modern home. Looking at their collection of merchandise, I would say, mission accomplished! All of their pieces are made with top quality materials such as solid wood, stainless steel and plush fabrics for the dog owner with exceptional taste and high standards.

Lazybonezz has created a range of products to cover all of your dog’s high-end needs. I love the sleek design of their feeders, and the tough doggy approach to the look of their collars and harnesses.

While some of Lazybonezz’s pieces are quite pricey, I was pleasantly surprised to find how affordable to majority of their line is. If you or someone you know is a big fan of well-designed modern dog products (of course you are), Lazybonezz just might become your favorite new site.

Purplebone is a London-based grooming salon and shop that has a few products designed by Purplebone owner Julian Victoria. The collection includes an adorable puffer jacket, blanket, bedroll, and — of course — a plush bone toy that comes in purple.

The puffer jacket is available in Chocolate/Coral or Red/Navy.

I’ve always wanted to teach my dogs (well, Mingus – Dottie’s not smart enough) to fetch me a beer from the fridge. I mean, really, how much would that trick kill at parties — plus just be generally useful in daily life? I think the Doggle, designed by Tommaso Ceschi for United Pets, might be a crucial tool in my mission.

Doggle is essentially a rubber bottle shape with a rope attached, following what I’ve found to be a truism with dog-toy design: simpler is always better. Doggle’s bottle shape and rope handle make it great for tossing, fetching, chewing… and maybe, just maybe, teaching Mingus to fetch me a cold brewski.

United Pets is a European company, but their products are available at selected stores in the United States.
