Dog Nail Polish
What it is: Quick drying nail polish designed exclusively for dogs. Yes, really.
Why we love it: Oh sure, it's a given, if you're a dog owner, you almost certainly love your dog. You feed him, care for him, take him for walks and otherwise attend to his needs. In exchange he drools on you, licks your face and eats your slippers. It may not be the most equitable arrangement, but there's no denying that we get something unique from our relationships with our canine friends. There are some people though, and though we hate to stereotype we will say that these people tend to own those very tiny, very yappy dogs (you know the ones we mean), for whom a dog is like a child, a companion and a very furry doll all wrapped in one. Gifts for the pampered pooch and his mistress are not the easiest thing to come by; little Fido is already up to his tiny nose in sweaters, Prada dog carriers and doggy jewelry, so you have to find something truly unique. OPI's new line of (yes, really) dog nail polish is certain to delight your pup's proud parent, she'll be giving him tiny doggy manicures before you can say "poor Fido". The polish is safe for dogs and dries lickity-split, so his nails will stay impeccably polished. Whether you're shopping in all seriousness for a girly-girl who wuvs her pwecious, or looking to tease a dog owner who is maybe just teetering on the edge of puppy obsession, OPI's new nail "pawlish" will be an excellent choice.
Who we'd give it to: Dog Owners, natch, particularly those of theTeen Girl variety, and the Born to Shop mentality.
Where to get it: From Amazon.com for a poodle pink $9.95
