A dog is a man’s best (dressed) friend!
While working on the new universe we found that clothes for dogs are amongst our most popular products as well. That is no surprises since of the 27 million pets in the UK over a third are dogs; figures show that British people own more than 7.3 million dogs.
This winter, coats for dogs were highly sought-after. As summer approaches we see that fashion councious pet owners are searching for dog T-Shirts and sunglasses. Now it’s all about getting your dog ready for the heat!
More than 4000 coats for dogs
20 pairs of dog sunglasses
348 dog dresses
Cat lovers will have to wait – Twenga does not currently have a section for cat clothing as there is not sufficient demand for it as yet.
A strong international market
Two of the strongest pet markets are in Brazil and the United States spending more than $30 billion dollars a year with a predicted $50 million spend in 2010. Here at Twenga we see a lot of evidence suggesting that pet owners have no problems overindulging their treasured pets much in the same way we’ve traditionally spoiled kids. This is evident on the Web as specialized pet sites are developing fast: dog dating sites, dog blogs, dog massage parlours…
As we continue to develop the Pet universe, you can be sure that we will add more brands, retailers and more products to satisfy you and your pets.
And as a final note, don’t forget the most traditonal dog products searched on Twenga: dog food, dog guard, dog kennel, and dog collar.
