10 Splurges for Your Favorite Pet

How much would you pay to never again touch a smelly plastic bag of poop? The Auggiedog lets you clean up your yard after your canine's potty break without having to handle his mess. The device picks up the waste and keeps it out of sight (and smell) until you deposit it into a trash can or toilet; $129.

These custom-made aquariums from Boyd Enterprises will steal the show in any room. The reef aquaria model pictured will run you $50,000 for the wood casting, lighting and filtration system, plus an extra $10,000 for the interior contents, like fish and coral. But think what an impact it will make in your dining room!

These Flexi luxury leashes will certainly make your doggy diva feel like a star as she struts down the block. The model pictured is the "Glam Wings Medium," which has a 16-foot tape leash and is covered in Swarovski crystals; $240. Other blinged-out varieties include Glam Butterfly, Glam Spider and Glam Composition.

Of course, many vets have safety concerns about using retractable leashes, so if you don't choose to splash out on this one, you have a good excuse.

If you've noticed your pup packing on a few extra pounds (or if you want to keep your fit dog healthy), consider adding this gizmo to your home gym. The GoPet treadmill comes in seven models, based on your dog's weight, and allows you to adjust the incline of his walk. And if Rover needs a little more motivation, you can attach one of his toys to a metal eyelet on the machine. The GoPet retails for $1,135 for large breeds (maximum weight of 176 pounds).

This creative product uses a simple mouth swab to turn your pet's DNA into a work of art, so you can show everyone just how unique your four-legged friend is.

Signature DNA has also introduced a jewelry line that allows you to capture your pet's double helix in stainless steel, sterling silver and gold. This wearable memento of your pup's DNA will cost you approximately $1,200, depending on the current price of gold. Call 1-855-802-6800 for jewelry orders.

If your pooch occasionally stays outdoors and you want to make extra sure your canine is comfortable in his dog house, the ClimateRight can safely manage the temperature of your pup's small enclosure. The portable machine heats in the winter and cools during the summer, in addition to filtering and dehumidifying the air; $599.

This grooming set from Geib Buttercut includes three shears made from the same material as samurai swords. With a clip produced by these masterpieces, your pet will never have a bad hair day again; $1,439.

While the price of this item doesn't compare with $1,400 grooming scissors, you may have never planned to splurge on a candle to deal with your dog's flatulence. The Fart & Away Candle combines floral ylang ylang, tuberose, white tea, myrtle and fennel to rid the room of those less-than-pleasant odors. From Sniff Pet Candles; $32.
