[ FIRST-RATE PICKS FOR YOUR POOCH FROM OUR FAVORITE FIRST MATE ]
PE AR L’S P I CKS BY PEARL ZEASMAN
Track Hack Think of Apple’s AirTag as your own personal bloodhound: Attach it to your frequently misplaced items (i.e. the boat keys!), link them up to the Find My app, and then if one inevitably goes missing, it can be located easily from your iPhone. And though not originally designed as such, they’ve proven to be pretty effective at tracking my fellow Fidos prone to wander, too. Choose from an array of customizable emojis and engravings to make it their own. Naturally, I vote for adding a pretty puppy icon, a polished P, and if I can talk my mom into it, a matching Airtag Hermès Key Ring to go with it. $29 // apple.com. Macaron Me I expect to be treated like the queen that I am, and these Lavender Dog Macarons from PUCCI are regal, indeed: Crafted from 100% natural, corn-free, wheat-free non GMO ingredients, and made with no artificial coloring or preservatives, these hard treats also boast a delightfully chewy texture that keeps me nicely distracted and gnawing away as my subjects, ahem, I mean humans, prepare to make way. $20 for a box of 6 // puccicafe.com.
Boredom Beater When the monthly magazine deadline comes along, Mom and I spend a lot of time at the NWY offices making sure everything is just right. Once I approve my page, I keep myself well entertained with my iFetch Interactive Ball Launcher. The model not only launches tennis balls 10, 20, or even 30 feet with the touch of the button for a game of fetch, it also comes complete with a hands-free mode in which I simply drop a ball into the top opening and then eagerly wait to see which of the three chutes it rolls out. $115 for the small model, $199 for the larger // amazon.com. I’ve Got Mail The truly luxurious options found in the subscription boxes from BoxDog have me yapping for joy when I spy the mail carrier each month. Each delivery is packed with a super yummy selection of the brand’s famous handmade treats, a vegan skincare item (think: CBD oil, shampoos, balms, and more), and then the toys that I deem are worthy of my very distinguished tastes. $35 per month for a 12-month subscription, or $40 per box for a quarterly delivery // boxdog.com.
Pearl is a feisty and opinionated Jack Russell Terrier born on November 7, 2013. Her favorite treat is organic, non-GMO natural chicken jerky, as she likes to take care of her girlish figure. Pearl loves dog TV and sunbathing on the aft deck of her human’s yacht, which is moored on the H dock at Elliott Bay Marina in Seattle.
