As we learn about how our culture’s current lifestyle impacts the planet, more and more people are starting to make small changes to help reduce their ecological footprints. Whether it’s as simple as switching to organic grapes, or as dramatic as selling all of your material possessions and moving to a solar-powered commune, every little change helps. It’s wonderful to see people starting to take some personal responsibility and even encourage their family and friends to get on board.Read More »

If you thought a stroller for a dog was odd, prepare yourself. Pushing your dog around in a baby carriage is just the tip of the strange iceberg. High chairs, sex toys, and sunglasses have all been made especially for dogs, but you may be able to argue a purpose for those items.
