Fab Freebie: Collar Me Bad

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

We know that many of you, like us, have a trusty canine companion by your side during your various DIY projects. So this week’s giveaway is all about making sure your hound is as stylish as your home. And who do we have to thanks for that? Jon Wye and his specialty line of Dog Collars by FredFred.

fredfredcollarsforcontest

Jon is a Washington, DC based designer who’s got a pretty sweet line of belts and t-shirts for us humans, but it was his collection of dog collars (named after Jon’s dog Fred) that caught our eye. The designs are dynamic (from the fun Dogs in Space scene to the intricate India print) and they’re all 100% leather with specially made stainless steel accents. Jon, er, Fred was even kind enough to send Burger a specially sized (1/2″ wide, instead of 1″ standard) Black and Tan Polka Dot collar and he LOVES it. Brings out his eyes, eh?

Want one? Then just comment on this post with the words “COLLAR ME” by Wednesday, April 22nd at 8pm EST. Three randomly selected winners will get their pick of any style and size from the full Fred Fred line (including the soon-to-be-added 1/2″ varieties for smaller breeds). And while you’re commenting with the words “collar me”, we’d also love to know if there’s something you currently do or buy to go that extra mile for your pup… a special treat? a doggie massage? a stylish collar perhaps? These three prizes can be shipped anywhere in the USA and, as always, only one entry per e-mail address is allowed. Winners will be announced on Thursday. Good luck!

    COLLAR ME. My dog Harley would look great in any of these! He’s a Pit bull/Plott hound mix, and he needs something really snazzy to match his personality.

    Collar me! My dogs are so spoiled with food and love (and nightly upgrades from couch(!) to bed). We just gave them baths and noticed their collars need a good scrubbing; or maybe just new collars ;)

    COLLAR ME!

    I actually get Miles a new collar every year for his birthday (which is coming up!) I know that keeping his style up to date is important to him.

    He also sleeps in our bed every night, and we end up in the craziest positions to accommodate whatever random spot he chooses to sleep in. Because, really, a dog who sleeps all freaking day really needs to get his beauty rest.

    Collar me please!

    Our second anniversary (we celebrate anniversaries instead of birthdays because Petey was “around” a year old when we adopted him) with our American Bulldog is coming up next week. He would look awesome kickin’ it with a swanky new FredFred collar.

    The extra mile? Let me think…Petey has his own kiddie pool to cool off on hot summer days. Once in a while he gets to finish the rest of the milk in the bottom of the cereal bowl (he LOVES it). His hair is mostly white (aside from some black spots and a patch over his eye) and very sensitive, so we have to be very careful with shampoo/bathing products. Yes, I’ve even been know to put sunblock on him, because he loves sunny days and can get burnt.

    My little Malte-poo Toby is our little child, for sure. And the most spoiled rotten thing ever! He would look adorable in one of those collars. Right now we are in the hunt for some soft (but cute, and somewhat stylish if possible) doggy stairs for him so that he can get on and off our bed easier. Because heaven forbid he can’t get up or down when we are up there!!! [If you know a good place for doggie stairs, please tell!] thank you!

    Some would say our little JRT “Scarlet” is spoiled…her special treat is a few carrots with little dab of peanut butter on the end and when we lived in an apartment my husband made a special bench to put in front of a window so she could lay on it all day and keep an eye on the neighborhood!
