What Makes Designer Dog Accessories Worth It?

Whether you’re looking at a luxe leash, chic collar, cozy bed or dainty dish, below are several factors to consider before adding a designer dog accessory to your cart.

Quality Materials

Designer accessories are typically made from high-quality, durable materials. These can include premium leather, strong fabrics and metals that resist tarnishing or breaking. The durability of these materials can justify the higher cost.

Comfort

Designer dog accessories often feature ergonomic designs that take into account the natural movements and body shapes of dogs. Furr example, a designer dog collar might be shaped to distribute pressure evenly, reducing strain on a dog’s neck.

Style

While this factor is more for you than your dog, style can be impawtant to fur fams! If your pooch has a unique personality, you may want them to sport trendy designs that match their mojo and help them stand out from the pack.

Ethical Production

Many designer brands focus on ethical production practices, including fair labor, sustainability and cruelty-free materials. These practices can increase costs but also provide customers with peace of mind.

Longevity

The higher price tag of designer dog accessories often translates to longer-lasting products. You’re not just paying for style, but also for craftsmanship, innovation and safety!

Must-Have Designer Dog Accessories

Now that you know what to look for in high-end products, consider which designer dog accessories might be right for your fur baby.

Premium Collars and Leashes

High-quality collars and leashes resist wear and tear better than cheaper alternatives. Many designer brands incorporate features like reinforced stitching, secure fastenings and custom sizing that help prevent accidents and injuries, particularly for dogs that pull or are extra active. 

High-End Dog Beds

Designer dog beds offer superior comfort and support, and can even promote good hygiene and overall dog wellness. Just like it is for humans, a good night’s sleep is crucial to a dog’s health! At Hounds Lounge, each of our personal pet suites offers a raised Kuranda dog bed that combines soft, off-the-floor comfort and is chew resistant. 

Stylish Apparel and Outerwear

While dressing up your pooch can be purely aesthetic, there are occasions when high-quality apparel is a necessity. Furr example, if you have a hunting dog, they will need a warm, water-resistant camo vest for those cold, wet Arkansas mornings!

Hunting dogs, as well as dogs who hike or frequently walk on hot pavement, should have a nice pair of dog booties to protect their feet. 

If your pooch enjoys playing dress up, you can always get them a designer outfit just for fun! If it’s made from good quality materials, they’ll be able to wear it for many years to come. 

Fancy Dog Bowls and Feeders

No matter your dog’s temperament or activity level, dog bowls and feeders are a must. Why not splurge on a dish that will last furrever? Along with looking stylish, designer dog bowls are usually free from harmful chemicals found in some low-cost plastic bowls. They can also offer an ergonomic design that makes drinking and eating easier for dogs with arthritis or mobility issues.
