As I went for a stroll along Bondi this morning I noticed something very odd. I saw not one, not two but three dogs (separately owned) with some rather nifty shades covering their eyes.
I laughed as I believed it was the owner dressing up their pooch to fall in line with the current trends.
It was only when one of the dogs (a Boxer) actually came over to me that I realised what they were.
DOGGLES!
Yes, that’s right – goggles for dogs. And why not I thought? I asked the owner where he purchased them and he informed me of the brand name and how his dog loves the water but suffers from getting too much of it in his eyes. Not only that – because of the UV rays in the sun on this side of the world – national campaigns are abundant telling us to wear shades – this goes for dogs too.
I couldn’t help but laugh as the owner told me of his dog’s eyewear whilst his dog sat their looking extremely cool getting more looks from the ladies than either of us.
It was as that point that he informed me his dog was also wearing the latest in pet sunscreen – of course protecting his skin from the sun and any form of cancer.
Doggles also sell K9 clothes, caps, prescription lenses for dogs with poor eyesight and even black inserts for blind dogs.
If you want a pair of Doggles for your dog, or – if it takes your fancy – for yourself (?!) then visit the website and locate your nearest stockist.
