The Multi-Functional Dog Shower – Life doesn’t have to be ruff

Multi-Functional Dog Shower

When you have a dog, it’s like raising a human who is perpetually 6 years old. They’re smart, but they are constantly trying to test their boundaries with what they can get away with. More importantly to dogs, how much trouble can they get into and still get treats in the same day. They try to eat things they shouldn’t, go to the bathroom in places they know they’re not supposed to, and rub their butts across the carpet, but when they make that cute face at you with the big round eyes full of love, it makes it all worth it (…usually).

If your little fur-child seems to enjoy romping out in the mud or coming home smelling less than pleasant, you probably want to give them a bath. Instead of having to live through those comedic movie scenes of a dog covered in bubbles running all over the house, you could instead get this Multi-Functional Dog Shower. This will attach to your home shower or garden hose, letting you choose how much cleanup after bath time you want to risk.

This comes with an adapter for indoor or outdoor use, it’s ergonomically designed to easily fit your hand, and will feel more like a massage to your dog than a bath. If anything, they’ll think they did something right with all the dedicated attention they’ll get. This is going to cost you $19.99, and will hopefully only need to be used once a month. For your sake.

BarkBath – a bath shouldn’t leave a mess behind

BarkBath

When you need to give your dog a bath, thoughts immediately jump to that of a bathroom covered in dirt, hair, and suds. Dogs will naturally shake when they have an excess amount of water on their fur, so washing your dog normally means cleaning your bathroom right after as well. If only to remove the dog and soap smell left in the aftermath.

The fine folks at Bissell who make carpet cleaners and vacuums thought up a way to cut the work in half, and engineered a method that will let you pour all the grime down the drain. It’s called the BarkBath, and it functions in the same way a carpet cleaner does, by jettisoning water to the deepest layer first, and cleaning everything above it as you move. This has the same setup as a carpet cleaner as well in that there is a reservoir for water, shampoo, and the dirty water will be sucked into an empty reservoir.

You can potentially use 48 ounces of water to clean an 80+ pound dog, and it comes with a microfiber mat, face and paw microfiber cloth, and 16 ounces of no-rinse shampoo. This can be used in any room of your home, but that’s if you’re already accustomed to using this and know what to expect. It’s about as loud as a vacuum, which means your pup will need to be at least somewhat accustomed to the sound. This is a purchase that will cost you $149.99, and is best used on pups who just need a bath to deal with light smell rather than a complete hose-down from a romp in the mud.

Pebby is the most advanced robotic pet sitter system in the world

pebbyOwning a pet does not only require a whole lot of responsibility, the very same pet tends to give you a lot of joy in return — especially when we are talking about more reactive ones like cats and dogs. Others such as fish swimming in the aquarium would do nothing more than provide you with a sense of serenity though, while tortoises and iguanas? Well, they are just there more as showpieces than anything else. Enter the Pebby, a device which is touted to be the most advanced robotic pet sitter system in the whole world.

It will be accompanied by a Wi-Fi remote controlled ball/smart collar combo, letting pet owners keep track of where their pets are in real time, not to mention monitor and entertain these furry (or scaled) friends regardless of where they are — as long as there is a decent Internet connection in the vicinity, of course.

The Pebby smart robotic pet sitter system will retail for $248 a pop upon a successful Kickstarter campaign. It will feature a Pebby “ball” which can be controlled remotely through the Pebby companion app (for iOS and Android devices), sporting a 720p wide-angle/fisheye video camera as well as a trio of powerful lithium-ion batteries that deliver up to 1.5 hours of playtime and 15 hours in standby mode. This lets you capture your pet’s cutest, candid moments in real-time, and you can even check out the live footage stream via the Pebble app, now how about that?

Sporting a micro-controlled, dual independent suspension, the Pebby ball will remain stable all the time. It is made in a pet-friendly size that measures just 80mm in diameter, while adding a sense of personalization with an interchangeable/multi-design inner casing, integrated LED lights for “Night Vision” Mode and LED glow rims — not to mention built-in speakers and a laser toy that is safe for humans and pets.
