With safety at top of mind and a dedication to finding the latest and most innovative products for your pet, we’ve teamed up with Pup Protector to be the first retailer to introduce their fashionably safe collars and leashes!

Pup Protector was born after tragedy struck Trevor Jensen and Naraku, his beloved Weimaraner. For six years, the duo walked every morning before sunrise to maintain optimum mental and physical health. However, one morning at 4:45AM, Trevor was struck by a car after throwing Naraku out of the way. Not until that morning did Trevor realize the real danger that the two of them faced going out in the dark without lights and/or reflective gear. In search for a solution, Trevor was inspired to build the Pup Protector brand.

With a passion to protect every dog that walks in the dark and a realization that there was nothing on the market that could meet that need, Trevor started designing and developing a line of ultra-bright lighted LED collars and leashes. Made with cutting edge thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), often used in various eco-friendly products, Pup Protector collars and leashes are safe and durable. Featuring a row of extremely bright LED lights with three settings, one static and two different flashing modes, protective pup parents are able to adjust for maximize visibility, accommodating preferences and safety concerns. Each collar and leash has a small battery affixed that will last for roughly 30 hours if lights are left on static mode. If blinking, the battery life may last even longer. For consumer convenience, all Pup Protector products are designed to use flat batteries, also used for watches and financial calculators and available in many retail locations.

The benefits of choosing a Pup Protector collar and leash goes far beyond keeping your four-legged friend safe during early morning or late night walks, you’re also able to (1) easily spot your dog off leash, (2) distinguish your dog in a large pack or at a dog park, (3) keep an eye on your dog in your yard, and (4) differentiate between multiple dogs by choosing collars with different LED colors. Built on a passion to protect and a desire to make a movement, Pup Protector stands behind their products, offering a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

Our new Nautical collection has arrived at Muttropolis stores and online at Muttropolis.com! Whether your pup is an avid sailor or simply loves the ocean infused style, this collection is sure to offer some fun, fashionable additions to their wardrobe, toy box, or resting place.

Stripes, flags and anchors decorate our new nautical apparel offerings. Have a boy dog that likes to take the helm? Then the 100% cotton Captain Dog Tank is just what he needs! For girl pups, we have the Nautical Sailor Dog Dress or Anchor Dog Dress, both dainty and adorable. Our very popular Puppia offerings, the Love Boat Dog Tank and Anchor Dog Harness are great gender neutral options. Puppia vest harnesses are often a customer favorite, constructed with velcro closures at the neck and chest to eliminate pulling and ensure the pup is safely secured and comfortable.

If you have a beach house, or simply like beach décor, you should take a look at the Nautical Boat Print Indoor-Outdoor Dog Bed Cover. It can be used to cover an old bed or stuffed with standard sized pillows, blankets or clothes to create a brand new bed. Having the versatility to move this bed from indoors to outdoors is a great feature, especially during the summer when pups love to bask in the sun! We’ve also included quite a few futons in this collection since they are lightweight and portable, can be used in crates, rolled up for travel, or used as a great alternative to a bulky, heavy bed. The Anchors Print Dog Futon and Coral Starfish Dog Futon are two of our favorites for ocean lovers.

The Lobster Extra Tough Dog Toy is built to last, made with multiple layers of flexible materials and two rows of double stitching. Have less of a rough-houser?

Toys are a great gift, whether for your own four-legged family member or a friend’s. Every pup deserves something new for summertime!

Happy Earth Day everyone! With an ever increasing abundance of eco-friendly products and services across industries, it is no surprise that planet friendly pet products and practices are also on the rise. We here at Muttropolis are very proud to offer a wide, and always expanding, assortment of eco-friendly pet products. It is our hope to help reduce carbon pawprints by providing pets with organic dog toys, collars and leashes, biodegradable poop bags and eco-friendly pet beds, just to name a few!

In honor of Earth Day, and in an effort to educate pet parents and promote the reduction of carbon pawprints, we’ve put together this short list of eco-friendly suggestions:

1)       Get rid of pet junk food. Since nutrition is essential for optimum pet health, it is important to look for natural and organic pet foods, free of artificial and genetically engineered ingredients and additives. Look for meat sources that are raised in sustainable, humane conditions. Many pet food brands include reconstituted animal by-products, essentially low-grade wastes that humans wouldn’t touch, let alone eat. At Muttropolis, we carry a large variety of safe, All Natural Dog Food (including Dehydrated varieties), All Natural Dog Treats, Natural Dog Supplements, and a small assortment of All Natural Cat Food and Treats as well.

2)       Pick up poop the biodegradable way. Use biodegradable bags to pick up your pet’s poop so that it doesn’t live in a plastic bag at the bottom of a landfill, lasting for hundreds of years to come. We carry eco-friendly poop pick-up bags, some more eco-friendly than others, with White Compostable Pick-up Bags at the top of the environmentally friendly list. They are made from 100% renewable resources, protecting the environment by degrading in as little as 40 days.

3)       Spoil your pet with sustainable products. Saving the planet can be fun for your pets too! Choose products that are made from recycled materials or sustainable fibers. Hemp is a great choice, as it is one of the most abundantly occurring crops in nature and makes super-strong fabric. Check out our Hemp Star Dog Collar and Leash set that was seen on the CBS Early Show, or the popular Eco Nap Recycled Fleece Dog Mat, made from 85% recycled plastic soda bottles! Our sustainable product assortment doesn’t stop there, with many more toys and beds that are made from recyclable fibers, or made to be recycled.

4)       Choose natural pet care and cleaning products. We carry quite a few grooming products that are all natural and free of harsh chemicals, such as Richard’s Organics Deodorant Dog Shampoo and Petkin’s Eco Bamboo Pet Wipes and Eye Wipes, all gentle on your pet and the planet. Steer clear of those brands that produce chemical laced grooming products.

5)       Make sure your pet always wears a tag. Losing a pet can be trying both emotionally and environmentally. Printing posters and driving around town in search of your missing four-legged friend has an environmental impact that could be avoided if you were alerted quickly that they were found. Whether you choose an electronic ID chip or a hang tag, the important thing is that your contact information is easily accessible. Our large Engravable Pet Tag includes Chrome Pet Tags in a variety of shapes, Stainless Steel Pet Tags with different image and color options, as well as Decorate Metal Pet Tags. There is a style and size suitable for every pet!
