Don't Forget Fido
My dog Lucy, died 3 years ago, and boy do I still miss her!
Particularly when I stumble across pictures like this one from Winer & Diner. What a comfy, cozy idea - and talk about up-cycling materials that would otherwise find themselves in the landfill! Catherine and Stephen Simms have created luxurious, comfortable and eco-chic pet feeders and pet beds.

I am always impressed by companies and designers who can look at what would normally be a waste product and imagine it as something
much grander and more functional. I’m always telling my husband not to throw things away considering I want to “manufacture something
from it.” No inspiration has struck me yet (but for one kooky view involving plastic hangers), so I love to see when others strike gold with such inspiration.
These pet feeders by Whiner and Diner reflect such an inspiration.They are handmade from wooden wine boxes marked with the names and logos of the vineyards they come from.
They are available and several sizes and customizable, and can accomodate your four-legged friends no matter how big or small they are.
And of course there’s no sacrificing your decor, that is one doggie bowl you won’t want to hide. That would produce a perfect gift for that friend of yours who is both a wine lover and a pet lover.

Fine Dining for your Pets
If you're tired of cleaning slopped water and spilt kibble from around your dog's eating area, dishes set into an elevated crate (in this case wine crate) might keep some of the mess from reaching the floor.It's also been suggested that elevated dishes can help prevent bloat among breeds
susceptible to that condition. And these wine crate dishes seem a classy way for Fido to dine.
The "Whiner and Diner" dishes are made from recycled crates, so they're eco-friendly. They'll also make a fun conversation topic for visiting wine lovers (no need to hide the dog dishes when guests come over; show them off instead).
The crates come with 1, 2 or 3 quart stainless steel bowls and have non-skid bottoms to keep your pets from sliding them across the floor. Luxury House Trends
Interior Design Favorite for the Week
Large breed dogs should eat their food from an elevated surface. Here’s a completely chic raised dog dish made from recycled wine crates from European and Californian wineries. Very cool.

Stylish and Funky
As I've mentioned numerous times before, I am a dog lover. I was thrilled to discover the eco-chic dog & cat food dishes by Whiner and Diner
(love the name, too!). These unique and stylish luxury pet accessories are hand-crafted from recycled wooden wine crates of prestigious
European and Californian vineyards. It's very interesting to see the crates before they are transformed into these beautiful pieces. Whiner
and Diner also has luxury pet beds made out of the same materials. Talk about pampered pets! Funky Finds
Chic and Practical
Though I don't have an obsession with food I do get almost as excited about it as Frankie (my four-legged officemate) does. Yesterday I came across this dog feeder made from an actual wine crate. Not only does it look chic, but it's also very practical.Tall dogs don't need to bend too low to eat, uncouth dogs can't push their dishes around so easily, and lazy dogs have both dishes side by side.
I know putting two dishes in o ne stand isn't new but there's probably at least one reader who's dazzled by the concept. Whiner and Diner (appropriate name, yes?) uses crates from
US and European (oooh la la) wineries. Though I'm trying to focus on the aesthetics and practicality of the feeder, a little voice in my head says Frankie would look sophisticated
if he drank wine from this feeder instead of beer from a bowl. BelleRinger PR-Carolyn

Love of Wine and Dogs
Do you love wine and dogs? I know I do! There's nothing more relaxing than sitting back with a nice glass of Pinot Noir and my little spaniel Rex
on my lap…
Well, now you can combine your two loves. The good folks at Whiner and Diner started out with making dog feeders and bowls from recycled wine crates. Good wines from California and Europe, no swill here…
Now, they've expanded and have created dog beds made from these fine wine crates. The beds look great, come with a comfy dog cushion and will run you a bit over $200.
With a top notch dog bed like this, your pet won't be whining much at all!
