Oh you sexy beast!
With only a few days left until the big gift exchange, I was trolling the Internet for something new and different for the pet stockings.
And what to my wandering mouse clicks did appear? Perfume for dogs.
With a quick spritz, I can turn my sweet little pups into "sexy beasts."
Sexy Beast is a fragrance created especially for dogs. The product description on Amazon says it is a blend of "bergamot and vanilla-infused musk combined with natural patchouli, mandarin and nutmeg oils." Sounds delicious, except for the patchouli, which always reminds me of Grateful Dead concerts and lava lamps.
The fragrance comes in a distinctive black, bone-shaped bottle, and it is touted as hypo-allergenic with a low-alcohol formula made specifically for a dog's sensitive skin and sophisticated sense of smell.
My dogs sniff butts. Not really sophisticated
At $50 for 1.7 ounces, plus expensive, expedited shipping to get it before Dec. 24, this is a pricey little stocking stuffer.
When our pooches get a little smelly, we usually just give them a bath. Then they have the aroma of a fresh-cut fruit salad with undertones of vanilla ice cream and wet dog.
What will Santa slide into your pets' stocking this year?
