Personally, I love to dress up dogs in various costumes…assuming that they like it, too. My friend, Maia, has an insanely adorable silver pug named Smokey that detests having to wear Halloween costumes, but that's just not the case for every dog.
The pet accessory business is booming. Sometimes they can be incredibly helpful, like these halo accessories that help blind dogs navigate, but sometimes they just seem…well, dumb.
Rear Gear is a brand new accessory store on Etsy, a peer-to-peer commerce store that specializes in homemade goods. Rear Gear is made for the dog (or cat) owning customer who is tired of looking at his or her pet's, well, rear end.
As they say in their product description: "Is your pet feeling left in the dirt because of his/her unsightly rear? Rear Gear is handmade in Portland, OR and offers a cheerful solution to be rid your favorite pet's un-manicured back side."
The seller is also quick to point out that these are for novelty sake only and not intended for everyday use. The seller is an animal lover who "loves to make people laugh" and wants this product to bring smiles to people across the nation.
What do you think about this product? Does it make you smile or roll your eyes? My dog would be furious if I brought these home. Let us know your thoughts in the comments and please SHARE!
These gag gifts hang off of the pet's tail...and embarrass both you and your dog.
The tags come in a variety of designs including cupcakes, disco balls, ribbons, flowers, and many more.
Customers can even customize their own Rear Gear.
Apparently, there are enough people interested in this product that it has been in business since 2009!
Now, we all know how dogs like to meet each other, so I wonder how they feel about this accessory.
What do you think? Funny or disgusting? Let us know in the comments!
