There’s no denying you’ve got the hippest pooch on the block. Here, some accessories and indulgences for your haute dog.

The brand new Carrie Ann boutique in Uptown Park is a chic store for both dog and diva. For the four-legged fashionista (who’s welcome to browse), there’s a section of tees, accessories and Texas-baked biscotti and other gourmet treats.
Your furry friend is worthy of a masterpiece. Houston-bred artist Meredith Montgomery paints gallery-esque likenesses of pampered pets, capturing everything you adore about your BFF. She even throws in treats when she mails you your brightly-hued oil portrait, developed from your snapshots. Mention Houston Tidbits for 20% off through May.
Amazing Race contestant and local animal lover Kelly Crabb just opened Oh My Dog! sitting, taxi and walking services. Stuck at work (or happy hour)? A Potty Break is just $10, and a 30-minute walk will cost you $15.

For the days when there’s just no time to wash her hair (you can totally relate), spray on some hypoallergenic, all-natural perfume, made by local More Than You Can Imagine. The designer fragrance used to be called Barc Jacobs (could you die?) – now the bottle’s label says Bark & Meow for Labbies & Tabbies. Check out the gift boutique’s cute studded collars and mention Houston Tidbits to get 20% off all pet products.

It’s not the Bunny Ranch, but it’s just as fun. Take your furry flirt to the Houston Dog Ranch, where a bone-shaped pool is part of the vacay. Offering “a nostalgic slice of country nestled in the heart of the city,” the retreat provides all natural salon-quality grooming and chauffeur services.
Grab your leash and hit the Specs and the City bash at Carrie Ann this Thursday, April 8th, from 7 – 9 p.m. for cosmos and a fashion show featuring the Jee Vice shades worn in the Sex and the City sequel. Get 25% off your purchase that night!
