So the submissions I’ve gotten so far have been exceptional, but there are not enough yet to make a real contest. Many of you have written to me that you have dog socks and are therefore too chagrined to participate, to which I answer: I have THREE pairs of dog socks. It’s OK. Fashion is subjective, right? Unless it’s a dog fleece caftan. Those are the items I’m looking for. The worst of the worst.
So let’s sweeten the deal: To the finder of the next sequin dog vest, I offer you the choice of the following:
1. A Bissell Pet Hair Eraser hand vacuum. Would that it could erase the image of the bedazzled cat sweatshirt.
2. This Jurassic Party Clip. I don’t know how you found this, Hope! I’m so torn on which category this goes in. This would fit in on the Mervyn’s clearance rack just as well as on the pages of Anthropologie where it currently resides. It’s kind of horrible and kind of awesome all at the same time.
I’ll give you all ONE WEEK to troll the web for awesomeness. And in the meantime, reader Anne sent me a picture of her adorable hedgehog Billy-Rae Hog and his adorable mullet. I could think of no better model for the Jurassic clip than this little guy.
So perfect. Now I want both the clip and the hedgehog. Happy Friday everyone!

I can’t believe Anthropologie is selling that dinosaur clip. I really don’t know what to say…
Dr. V says
I know! I was having a “does not compute” moment.
Tamara says
The Jurassic party clip is perfect on Billy-Rae!
Dr. V says
Right? I need a hedgehog.
Annette Frey says
Dr. V, do you have one of these vac’s? Can you use it on the floor as well as furniture and is it awesome? Anyone else have it and know? TIA
Dr. V says
I think you could use it on any surface, but since it’s a small handheld it wouldn’t be easy to use on a large surface. I think the Pet Hair part is the fact that is has a little comb thing on the front to scoop up pet hair (good idea).

Dr. v, sorry in advance for the off-topic comment.
i wanted to tell you that i stumbled across your blog last weekend. after my initial couple reads from your “picks of the litter” i had to go back to the beginning…
so i have spent nearly every free moment of the last few days reading every single post, watching every vid, even checking out every link you posted- in order from start to finish. i am friggin exhausted.
thank you!!!
Dr. V says
Oh my gosh! I don’t think even I could take that much ME all at once! Welcome to the blog, I hope you aren’t all burned out now. 🙂

How about this classic?
Hope says
So the hubbie and I totally went to check out a litter of baby hedgies this weekend to determine if we wanted to adopt one. It’s serendipitous. Will that convince my husband to get the hedgie?
PawPosse Sonia says
How about this one. Not only is it ugly and available for purchase, it’s used.
