Joyería para mascotas, al último maullido de la moda

Algunos amantes de los animales convierten a sus mascotas en sus hijos, dándoles toda la atención y cuidados que merecen, aunque en ocasiones van más allá de cubrir sus necesidades básicas y los visten y adornan con accesorios que valen miles de dólares.

Ciertas empresas toman ventaja de estos “dueños consentidores”. Checa estas empresas que se dedican a fabricar joyería para mascotas como collares, moños y placas con brillantes y hasta piezas de Swaroski.

Entre las empresas destacadas se encuentra Diamond Dogs, de Inglaterra, que ofrece collares para gatos y perros con elementos de Swaroski. Un collar para gato cuesta en promedio $194.5 dólares, mientras que un juego de collar y correa para perro puedo costar hasta $700 dólares.

Otra compañía es Designer Dog Necklace; aquí se pueden encontrar collares hechos con acentos de oro y plata, Swaroski y perlas. Luxe Pets es otra marca que ofrece placas de identificación personalizadas y collares de diseñador, para que tu mascota luzca piezas únicas.

No es de sorprender este boom de productos de lujo para mascotas. En los últimos años la industria ha visto un crecimiento considerable en el gasto promedio de los norteamericanos en sus mejores amigos.  La Asociación Americana de Productos para Mascotas (APPA, por sus siglas en inglés), estima que en Estados Unidos los dueños de mascotas gastaron en 2013 la friolera cantidad de 55.72 billones de dólares en productos y servicios.  La Asociación estima que para 2014 la cifra aumentará a 58.51 billones de dólares, de los cuales 4.73 billones se destinarán al arreglo de las mascotas (como cortes de pelo, entrenamiento y productos diversos). Tan sólo en Estados Unidos, la  APPA informa que el 68% de las viviendas cuentan con mascota, lo que equivale a 82.5 millones de hogares.

Not surprisingly is this boom of luxury products for pets. In recent years the industry has seen considerable growth in the average spending of Americans in their best friends. The American Pet Products Association estimates that U.S. pet owners spent in 2013 a whopping amount of 55.72 billion dollars in products and services. The Association estimates that by 2014 the figure will increase up to 58.51 billion dollars, from which 4.73 billion will go to grooming & boarding, pet sitting and miscellaneous. According to the 2013-2014 APPA National Pet Owners Survey, 68% of U.S. households own a pet, which equates to 82.5 millions homes.

Joanne Mahon / Managing Director, Diamond Dogs, http://diamonddogs.eu/

As manufacturer’s of handmade leather pet accessories our main concerns are about producing top quality collars and leads that are durable and last the lifetime of the pet. The safety and comfort of the animals is also of paramount importance to our company. Our handmade products happen to be beautiful pieces in their own right whether they are plain leather or embellished with Swarovski crystal. Being involved with dogs for over 50 years and as the owner of 14 large hunting dogs, I do not treat them as children nor I do not dress them up in clothes but they do wear beautiful, durable Diamond Dogs collars every day. You might be surprised to learn that dogs derive pleasure from wearing beautiful collars because they attract the attention of strangers who then make a big fuss of them, giving them praise and attention. It is precisely what every dog craves, so our Swarovski collars work for the real benefit of the dogs in a round about way. I also learned a long time ago that its much better to buy quality items once than to have to replace them after a short time. As the saying goes, ” the quality remains long after the price is forgotten.” Our passion for making beautiful, durable accessories for our companion animals goes far beyond the simplified notion of designing luxuries for pets .Perhaps only those of us who know and understand the pleasures of living with companion animals can truly appreciate why are pets are worth it and what they give us back in return.

Fish Flops – Businesswoman and is just 16 years old

Just turned 16 and already was a millionaire. Maddie Robinson is a young visionary from Texas that at her young age already moves as an experienced businesswoman in the fashion industry. Her company is creating a true brand identity on social media and has attracted the attention of business magazines as important as Forbes, to celebrities like Selena Gomez.

Robinson had the idea of creating a business of flip flops that combine her interests: swimming, fishing and drawing. Fish Flops (http://www.fishflops.com/) is the name of her company and already sold in boutiques in several states in North America and important retailers like Macys and Nordstrom.

In addition, Fish Flops has an online store and new products such as hats and T-shirts that combine perfect with the flip flops.

Top it off, Maddie is also a writer. Her book "Living together in the sea" teaches about life in the sea. The main character is Orkicky the Orca Whale. "Swimming with Spinner" is an adventure story and guides to learn how to swim; the main character is Spinner the dolphin. Maddie created and drawn a series of characters that are the basis for her stories.

None of this would have been possible without the support of her father, Dan Robinson and her entire family. Now Maddie has enough money to pay for college.
