Catalog Review- "in the company of dogs"

This catalog is definitely worth a visit to the site to request it. It's well done (layout & photos) and the products are swanky. They've got the whole William Wegman line of dog things, funny dog art and cutesy dog clothes, among other things. A little on the pricey side as far as I'm concerned (around $70 for the quilted vest below), but worth a gander. And if you feel like how I feel about catalogs, this
one's a keeper. This one gets a 4 Hank heads rating. Click on the Hank heads to find out how I rate stuff. Request a catalog here.

And, perhaps the most compelling reason to git yerself a catalog from this company is this:

"What the hell is that?", you ask? Well, I'll tell you: it's a timed Kong dispenser. A TIMED. KONG. DISPENSER., I said. It chucks out 4 Kongs throughout the livelong day while your dog's home alone, in despair over your absense. If you have a dog with the dreaded "separation anxiety" problem, this is a damn good idea, I'll say. And only $149.00. Compare that to the cost of replacing a thoroughly demolished Crate & Barrel sectional sofa that used to have that sueded microfiber upholstery, back when it was the dopest sofa in the whole co-op building, and not a jiggling mound of fluffy trash with dangerous metal springs, waiting to mortally wound anyone who tries to clean it up.

I think you should get the kong thing. Or at the very least, get your gear/wire/batteryhead brother to tool around in the garage and make one of his own, using solely dog-proof materials. I'm sure there's someone around who can make it for like $4. Go get that guy.
