Dog Wigs
 
 
Article
Is your hound not hairy enough? Could your feline do with a fashion boost? How about pampering your pet with an eye-catching WIG.

California-based Total Diva Pets offers to perk up your pooch or pussy with a range of hairpieces especially designed for animals.

Sisters Jenny and Crissy Slaughter used to dress up their pets when they were children. But after winning a 2007 doggy parade fashion show by kitting out their dog as a Playboy bunny they realised they might have a business idea.

"For that year's parade, we really needed little blonde wigs for the dogs to play Hugh Hefner's blonde bombshell girlfriends. We couldn't find any dog wigs so we tried to use human wigs, but they didn't fit," Crissy explained. "We came up with our own creative design for dog wigs that turned out so cute."

Now the sisters sell $30 wigs with designs ranging from an afro (or Arfro) to a hilarious green spiky punk wig.
