Active Creatures - Active Wear for Dogs

Active Creatures is a Melbourne-based apparel business which just launched a new active wear range for dogs at the recent Melbourne Dog Lovers Show.

Once focused solely on women’s sportswear, this innovative 3-year-old online start-up has recently broadened its luxury sportswear collection to include creatures on both two and four feet! “The move to embrace women and their pet pooches was inspired by our customers,” explains Active Creatures Co-founder and Director, Cameron Townsend.

“When customers were tagging us on social media we often noticed a dog in the background of their photos. 

Seeing the role dogs were playing in our customers’ lives - as best friend and furbaby - we decided it was time to start designing for our customers’ besties too.”

Cameron says “our new Autumn/Winter collection of dog jackets was inspired by international ready-to-wear fashion. Our collection encompasses the latest fabrics and trims – think vinyl, city puffa and tweed, coupled with warm knits and neck snoods.

We’re fully committed to Active Creatures being a brand for Woman & Pooch. We’re excited by the move into this broader market segment and future collections are already in development.”

Philip Bartholomew, CEO and Founder of My Pet Warehouse agrees. “The relationship many women have with their dog is hugely important. When I first saw Cameron and Melody’s concept a year ago, I was impressed with their vision.”

The new Autumn/Winter Collection features eight separate items, in seven sizes (XXS - XXL).

PRICE & WHERE TO BUY


RRP: $69.99-$82.99 for Dog Jackets/ Snood Dog Jackets from My Pet Warehouse nationally.

Dog Eye Injuries can be a Vet Emergency

Eye injuries in dogs and cats are common and are usually caused by trauma (such as a fight with another animal), a foreign body in the eye, infection, an inability to form lubricating tears, or an abnormality in the eye.  WHAT ARE THE SIGNS OF AN EYE INJURY? Presentations for these include squinting, pawing the eye or face, watery eyes, a discharge from the eye, the eyes can look red or inflammed, the pupil size may be abnormal, or the pet simply appears uncomfortable or in pain. But when is this an emergency and when should pet owners seek veterinary help? Most injuries that appear superficial occur to the cornea. This is the outer layer of your pet’s eye. There are many very thin layers to the cornea and the seriousness of the injury depends on how many of the layers have been damaged. Injuries to the outermost layer can heal quickly with medication in little time. However, the deeper the injury, the greater the chance of scarring or blindness which often requires surgery to prev...

AWLQ’s Stray Animals’ Day – a chance to make a $124,000 difference Ambassador NRL Titan Chris McQueen has launched AWLQ’s inaugural Stray Animals’ Day April 4 challenge with a target of $124,000, to cover the cost of running its vital foster house program. “An incredible 6,200 animals, or more than 71% of all animals in AWLQ’s care, spend time in foster care each year,” Chris McQueen said. Oliver, the Staffy cross - what a difference a month makes! Animals, just like Oliver. The Staffy cross had a severe skin condition and has so far spent a month with foster carer Amelia and was at the challenge launch. “It’s amazing to see the difference in Oliver’s condition in that time,” Chris said. “This is clearly a happy dog that is enjoying a home environment while he recuperates.   “In the off-season Nicole and I would be looking to foster for AWLQ – as it’s so rewarding and makes such a difference.” Animal Welfare League Queensland continues to be a leader in animal rehoming....
