Jeder Hundefan sammelt im Laufe seines Lebens sicher das Ein oder Andere vierbeinige Accessoire.
Schön, wenn es dann nicht nur als Staubfänger fungiert, sondern auch einer echten Aufgabe nachkommt.
Diesmal habe ich ein paar gut aussehende Hundekumpels rekrutieren können, die Euch Zweibeinern bei der Ordnung ein wenig unter die Arme greifen. Und das, obwohl mir Ordnung - zum Leidwesen meines Frauchens - so gar nicht liegt.
Beim Sortieren von Zeitschriften und Büchern geben sie ihr Bestes, aber seht selbst.
Diese beiden französischen Bulldoggen machen es sich nach getaner Arbeit auf einem Kissen bequem. Es gibt sie wahlweise in Weiß oder Schwarz - gefunden bei ebay:
(English version:) Each dog fan accumulated during his life, certainly the one or the other four-legged accessory.
Perfect, if it doesn't only act as a dust catcher then, but also fulfills a real task.
This time I was able to recruit a few good looking dog buddies that help you humans to tidy up.
Even though I hate tidiness - to the regret of my mistress....
When sorting magazines and books they do their best, but see for yourself.
These two French Bulldogs are relaxing on a pillow after doing their work. Available in either white or black - found on ebay:
Diese zwei kubistisch anmutenden Terrier stehen auf schwarzen Resinsockeln im Marmorlook. Sind am Besten in einem von Klassikern belegten Regal aufgehoben... - gefunden bei Houzz.
These two cubist looking Terrier are standing on a black base in marble look - found at Houzz.
Dieser Dackel ist schon fast legendär - stammt er doch vom Designpapst Jonathan Adler.
Erhältlich mit rosafarbenem oder blauen Sockel.
This dachshund is almost legendary - because he comes from the icon of design "Jonathan Adler"
Available with pink or blue base.
Diese Windhunde verlieren nicht einmal durch ihre quietschpinke Farbe an Eleganz - gefunden bei KARE design.
These greyhounds don't even lose their elegance with this loud colours - found at KARE design.
Wohl weniger für die staubtrockene Lektüre ist dieses ironische Pärchen gedacht. Aus Metall - gefunden bei Knob Creek Metal Arts.
This ironic couple need some funny literature. Made of metal - found at Knob Creek Metal Arts.
Diese Farbe! Ich mag sie einfach! Und mein Frauchen auch. Somit sind wir auch mal einer Meinung (kommt selten genug vor...) - gefunden bei Pottery Barn. Die liefern übrigens auch endlich nach Deutschland!
Look at this color! I adore it! And my mum also. Thus we are de facto in complete agreement (really a rare event ...) - found at Pottery Barn.
Die Italiener können einfach alles, was mit Design zu tun hat. Das stellen sie sogar bei solch simplen Dingen, wie Buchstützen unter Beweis. Gefunden bei Spisani.
The Italians are perfect in everything that has to do with design. They even put in such simple things as bookends to the test. Found at Spisani.
Freunden der vornehmen Zurückhaltung sei dieses Exemplar ans Herz gelegt: Blasslila Keramik - gefunden bei Overstock.
Friends of elegant restraint will love this: Pale Purple Ceramics - found at Overstock.
Für die Handwerker unter meinen Lesern habe ich noch ein besonders Schmankerl aufgetan. Eine Anleitung, wie man diese (oder Ähnliche) Buchstützen selber macht. Farbe und Rasse kann somit jeder selber wählen. Anleitung gefunden bei Irresistible Pets.
For the craftsmen I found a special treat. An instructions on how to do this (or similar) Bookends by yourself. Any color and breed is possible. Instructions found in Irresistible Pets.
Also wenn's nach mir ginge, ich würde ja auf der einen Seite einen Terrier (mich) und auf der anderen Seite eine Katze basteln. - Aber mich fragt ja keiner....
For what it's worth, I'd build a terrier (me) on one side, and on the other a cat. - But no one asks me, as usual....

Of dogs and boxes
Yeah, it's summer! Let's go outside in the greens!
Fortunately I have some square feet belonging to me, so my mistress is currently working there at any minute of the day for some snipping and plucking, raking and digging (why is she allowed to but not me??)...
But let's get on with it: I found some interesting accessories for your garden space that even suits a balcony or looks like a stylish statue inside the house.
Some wired cages moulded like dogs for planting and shaping box-trees or moss. Once again found at ebay Germany.
I like the look of a rough scribble and wouldn't destroy this with planting something in. But decide:

And this is how it looks like with moss:
That's all fine, but my choice of a garden sculpture would be a hydrant.

high-glass dogs
Once again sorry for my bad working morale... Time's running and I have got my paws full.
In order to know what to do, my mistress created a cushion for me that shows my daily to-do-list.
So I will nevermore forget anything...
Look:
If you are interested, it's available at her shop: www.paraperro.de
But now for something completely different: My latest web-tours.
I found a nice german eBay-shop a couple of days ago where a girl is selling lovely dog-breeds made of italian Murano-glass.
The figures are only 6.5 cm (2.6") high, are made lovingly & with a lot of typical details of the real breed.
The sellers' name is »8010katharina« and she is selling worldwide.
Check out her shop, she has nearly every dog breed available, also rare breeds.
Here's a small selection of her latest offers:

Thanx mistress for this mind memory, it works!

Do(g) it yourself: treat-containers
Because it's getting more & more unpleasant outside and time's running up to christmas, I've decided to show you some nice ideas and handicrafts in the upcoming weeks.
Today I'm starting with a really nice DIY-idea by »Diane Henkler« - published at the platform »momtastic«.
At this platform you'll find the full instructions to develop your very own dog-food container made out of an old can. Everybody will envy your talent, wanna bet? - But don't panic, it's really easy. It only appears stylish and pricy....
Buddies, enough is enough - time to roll up your sleeves and get started!
P.S. You can send me pics of your finished containers and your own ideas of labels and creations.
I'll show them in one of my next posts.

Bead it!
Usually I'm not into that Bling-Bling-stuff, but I found something really magnificent in the net:
The Lone Beader - or respectively Diana L. Grygo from Boston | USA - creates something with beads that is really incredible: Inspired by dogs, cars or typical city scenes she makes lovely brooches, pins, jewellery and even art in an absolut particular way.
A lot more dog-breeds than these presented you can find at Dianas shop.
B.t.w.: If you are a dextrous person and want to try it out by yourself, she also has some nice tutorials on sale. Enjoy!

This one I ♥ most, because it looks like me!

Yummy!
As most of my colleagues I'm a real beef-junkie.
Can't understand why some people think that they (and sometimes their poor dogs, too) don't need any meat....
For dog owners who have this curious point of view (just as well for everyone who loves crazy dog stuff), Claudia Talbi of »Friesenliese« designed the vegan haunch plush-toy.
Made of cotton and fleece and filled with polyether, it's the perfect agreement for salad-enthusiasts:
This is her dog »Klara« who enjoys her soft "meal":
In this case the old saw: »Don't play with your food!« - seems to be disproved.

Oh Sh*t!
Sorry for the delay, buddies. It's such a busy time at the moment - taking sun baths, relaxing at the pool, going swimming (not in the pool but in some smelly puddles), meetinging friends, pinching sausages from the grill...
But now it's time for some intellectual things in life.
I found a really interesting gift while surfing the web: A pendant made by the Dutch designer Marloes Duyker of »Naked Design«.
It comes with a silver plated chain and is produced by lasercut. Available in many different colours - ask for your favourite one!
I think I'll recommend one of them to my master as the perfect gift for my mistress. They celebrate their 10th wedding day next tuesday...

Black with Gold- my favourite combination!
Red alert!
Pretty in pink.
Golden nugget...

Birthday pickings
First I'd like to thank all my friends & congratulators that made my (birth)day.
Everything was perfect - even if my deepest wishes (see my post from below) didn't came true...
But I had a lot of attention this day, and got some really f-u-n-tastic gifts.
After getting dressed by my mistress - as usual she put me on this awful crown - I had to pose amidst my gifts for the daily press:
I got a new »paraperro® cushion«, made by my mistress. It's an outdoor cushion and I'm going to be the test-dog for this model. When I'm chuffed about it, it's going to be produced next year.
Then I received a brandnew porcelain water-bowl that was designed by »Rosenthal« with a jolly print by Andy Warhol.
And also my mistress made a tasty cupcake of apple, zucchini and eggs, ornated by a »7« of some liver sausage, mhhhh!
B.t.w.: I didn't know what the green thing on the top of the cake has been for, it tasted unbearable...
Later that day - as you can see I still had to wear this crown - another present arrived.
My absolute adored liver-cake made by the german dog-bakery »Lehmann«.
There's only one question left: Why do I only have birthday once a year?
I've heard that 1 dog year counts like 7 human years!
So wouldn't it be fair to celebrate 6 times more?

wishing well
Yeah buddies, time's running. And thus my birthday isn't far away anymore.
This time I won't celebrate like last year, I'm just hanging around with some of my dearest friends.
I checked out some birthday presents that I'll await tomorrow. Maybe my wishes will come true...
These things would make my day:
1. Getting some lovely arranged flowers from my mistress in the morning.
Flowers found at »Snooty Paws«
2. Getting a really delicious & huge dog-cake for breakfast - of cause just for me.
Cake found at the lovely Blog of »Laurie Arons«
3. Having a refreshing bath with my buddies in a perfect shaped pool.
Bone-shaped swimmingpool found at the Blog »chicken smoothie«
4. And last but not least: Receiving a present that utterly looks like me!
Supercute key-chain made by »Leatherprince«
Will soon post some pics what really happened tomorrow.
Keep your fingers crossed for an amazing day!

Scratching post
Today the word "post" got a complete new meaning for me: This cattree made by the Dutch designer »Erik Stehmann« shows that there possibly exsists a kind of friendship - or let's say helpfulness between dogs and cats.
Okay, this tree really looks fantastic compared to the traditional furniture for cats, but it turns everything topsy-turvy in my view of the world. I think I've to make an appointment with my trusted psychologist....
Finally a short warning that hits the mark: Mind your head....!.
