For the dog in your life — or the dog owner who expects you to bring Fido a gift.


1. Not even the most self-conscious of pups will mind Cole Haan’s reversible dog coats — they look
just like your own outerwear! $98, www.colehaan.com


2. Your dog can ride in style with a little help from an Orvis car hammock. Or, at least, not fall off
the backseat while trying to look over your shoulder. $129 and up, www.orvis.com


3. The beautifully packaged Harry Barker Good Dog gift basket includes soothing shea butter
shampoo and conditioner, as well as toys for when bath time is over. $25, www.onekingslane.com


4. Want a puppy break at your desk? VueZone is a wireless system of battery-operated cameras that stream video straight to Internet browsers. Just log in to your Vuezone.com account and you can check in on your pups. Anything you miss, the motion sensors can capture with a snapshot and e-mail to you — seriously. $200-$250, www.vuezone.com
