For the rich, pampering their little pets is a must. Check out the Royvon Animal Hotel in Surrey (UK).

The place is situated on six acres of land (might not be much for humans but that’s a huge place for pooches) and offers play and pampering for dogs.

The animal hotel features a spa in which dogs can be bathed, groomed and massaged. There’s also a training center that would teach your dog better manners and etiquette to fit a luxurious lifestyle.

There’s even a dog taxi (air conditioned at that) for rides to Brecon Beacons so that pets can enjoy the scenic countryside.

Chien Vivant dog beds.

What do you buy for the dog that has everything?

Thankfully, Chien Vivant Couture Beds here are available from Barron’s House of Treasures.   The dog beds range in price from $1,500 – $1,800 and feature French inspired names such as Le Bijou, Napolione, and Marseilles.

The beds are not returnable so make sure you truly love them before ordering.  They all feature high quality materials and options such as monogramming and Swarovski accents are an additional price.

Expensive and opulent pet accessories abound for those who wish to spoil their furry friends including where they rest their fluffy heads at night.

The Dog Pod by designer Glenn Ross is no exception offering contemporary design with a comfort and utility. Constructed from bent ply wood which curves in a “C” shape holding a removable and washable faux fur pad, the Pod surrounds your pooch and comforts it into sweet slumber.

Size wise I’m not sure if they only accommodate lap dogs or big beasts but I appreciate the sleek design which will easily blend into any home’s surroundings.

Choose from a variety of finishes including maple, cherry, wenge, and bamboo or aluminum for an extra $100 on top of the $730 price tag.

During a visit to England in 2005, Mary Oswald, the owner of CollierLeeds.com, visited Leeds Castle and was particularly enthralled with the dog collar museum at the castle grounds.  Being a lifelong dog-lover, Mary was enthralled with this unique aspect of historical artifacts and wanted to adorn her own dogs with something similar.  Alas, despite a search of high and low, Mary was unable to find comparable collars so naturally the entrepreneurial spirit kicked in.    

Each collar is handcrafted in Mary’s studio in the Pennsylvania countryside.  Begining with high quality English bridle leather, they shape the collar and then attach buckles, dee rings and “medallions”.

Much care is taken to ensure you receive a high quality dog collar. Before leaving the premises, each collar is finished with protective coating. However, the leather will mellow and patina with age because of its natural tendencies. Collier Leeds recommends that your collar be used for decorative purposes and even though it will stand up to your dog’s antics, should be kept dry and clean.
