I'M nOT TAKING HER IN PUBLIC LIKE THAT!

Those words hung in the air as he stared at the new hot pink collar circling the neck of his beloved lab puppy. Now granted, the dog was female, but in all fairness, we felt this was a classic example of how the focus of the marketplace has been a frenzy of frills, fuss and fluff with an eye toward capturing a woman's eye and wallet.

But wait a minute, this man's reaction made us wonder--
 What happened to the man in his best friend's world?

According to a zoo archaeologist from the University of Tennessee this man and beast relationship began over 15,000 years ago. Dog & cat species came to perform certain tasks to make a man's life easier. As society evolved, the beasts were brought into the home and became fully domesticated under the nurturing environment of the family. Their status as familial members seems best documented when a dog was discovered buried in a double human 14,000 year old grave in Bonn-Oberkassel, Germany. Little has changed except now our pets are viewed as little people, extensions of our personalities and tastes.

It was while observing this man's quest to find a neutral collar for his puppy when the Ah Ha moment hit and an avenue was born to bring men back into the pet equation.
