I don’t mean to alarm you but Country Road have just dropped a whole new range of dog gear so your pooch can be a fancy soccer mum too.
It’s International Dog Day, so obviously everyone and their dogs are freaking the fuck out and treating it like a national holiday. But if you take the day seriously, you can spoil your four-legged friend with a hot new leash or poop bag from Country Road. Yep. They’re even selling poop bags, because even your dog’s shit deserves the best.
They took to Instagram to announce the news with a cute dog to make you all go “aww”.

The collection includes food bowls, collars, leashes and poop bags. Prices start at $29.95 for a small bowl, right up to $99.95 for a leash. But can you really put a price on style? Yes. You can, apparently. It’s $99.95.
Country Road, at least in my opinion, seems to be one of those Aussie brands with a cult following that ferociously support everything they do. So, it’s unsurprising that they’d release a collection to cater to our four-legged friends. They’re not the first label to jump on the dog bandwagon, with Gorman and other Aussie labels also releasing ranges so your doggies can become your latest accessory.
But some Country Road fans were a little unhappy with the steep price, because apparently not everyone can afford to spend $100 on their dogs.

I’m a sucker for anything with dogs, so I’m definitely contemplating spending a couple of hundred dollars on leashes and collars for the dogs I do not currently own. But each to their own.
If you want your dog to match your Country Road aesthetic, you can shop the collection here.
