I found these all-natural, biodegradable dog bowls via Daily Kibble. Called Fresh Licks Eco-Disposable Bowls by Everybody Green, they are made from 100% bagrasse, which is the fibrous residue that remains after sugarcane stalks are crushed to extract their juices. These bowls are sustainable and great for bringing on trips or to the park, plus you can throw them away without the guilt.

Did you take Fido somewhere this weekend? We brought Beans and Lulu with us down to the Jersey shore for the long weekend. They love spending time with their grandparents, who take extra care to make sure no dog goes hungry. Although my parents have two golden retrievers, my dogs are often more interested in what my mom is making in the kitchen than playing games.

Anyway, if you found yourself struggling with pet travel, perhaps a pet travel accessory kit would make things a bit easier. I spotted this travel kit from Orvis that I think looks fairly nice and has some of the essentials needed for a safe, happy trip.

The kit includes a great travel bag with luggage tag, collapsible bowl, collar/lead combo, roll of doggie waste bags, and basic first-aid kit. The bag has lots of compartments where you can store treats, pet wipes, and other necessities.

Do you usually pack a special bag for your pets when you travel with them overnight?

There’s nothing girly about the sporty Argo Petascope carriers by TEAFCO. They are made of nylon and feature mesh windows on all sides, a water-resistant base, and the small size is airline-approved. They also come in medium and five fun colors. I’m really digging these, but more importantly, they look cool enough for my little Beans.

I saw these today over on Moderncat and figured they were good enough for the modern pup, too. Albeit, the small modern pup. In the past, I would definitely say that seafoam green wasn’t one of my favorite colors, but for some reason I’ve really been into it lately. The front-loading carrier also comes in baby pink and the picnic basket style comes in tan.

I spotted these squishy pet bowls today via Daily Kibble, and just think they’re so cute! You can scrunch them up and throw them in a suitcase or backpack and they don’t lose their shape. They come in human versions too.

The A.U.T.O Pet Carrier from Italian company Petego comes in a variety of colors and is a modern alternative to the run-of-the-mill blah pet carrier you can get at just any pet store. The design includes a comfort grip handle and belt inserts that can be used to secure the carrier as a car seat while driving.
