People really enjoy their pets and like to buy them things, but where do they cross the line?  I really enjoy my Cairn Terrier mix and I like to give him good things, but there is a line I draw when "spoiling" my faithful K9.

Today on the Top 5 at 7:45, I'll highlight, what I think, are the most ridiculous items that people spend money on for their pets. Feel free to add to the discussion with your own observations.

  1. Doga - Yoga For Your Dog: Really? The dog sits around while the owners lifts it's arms up and down for whatever reason. Take them out to the Cheyenne Dog Park and they'll get all the exercise they wish.
  2. Wigs: If you're unhappy with your pets head hair or fur, then you can change that by plopping an artificial mop on top of their noggin.
  3. Home Cooked Pet Meals Delivered To Your House: If I know dogs and cats, I think I'm safe to say that they really don't care HOW the food got there, they're just pleased to have it in the bowl.
  4. Unisex Pet Perfume: This might be practical as animals to tend to stink, but I would hope one would trying bathing the animal before attempting to hide their funk with some kind of cheap "dog" perfume.
  5. Elaborate Pet Funerals: It is very sad when a domestic pet dies. It can be as if a member of the family has died. Having said that, we need to think past emotions when burying our pet. There is no need to spend thousands of hard earned dollars for a funeral to memorialize your pet. My grandad had a simple "funeral" in the back yard when he buried his pet and then staked it with a marker.

The Top 5 at 7:45 airs weekdays with me, Gary Freeman, and is sponsored by First Education Federal Credit Union.
