The Rise of the top dog


Tamara Bellis

The British are animal lovers and in the past few years dog ownership seems to be ‘on trend’. And with this trend comes caring for your pet with the best food, beds, and attire. A few clever British companies have linked to this trend and are making accessories for dogs.

One such company is Ruby Rufus makers of cashmere for dogs! I’ve always wanted cashmere myself as I know it’s super warm and comfortable too. Businesswoman Ruby Rufus Isaacs started designing a collection of cashmere jumpers chihuahua’s to keep them cosy. Her friends liked them and wanted some too and when Pets pajamas online pet boutique saw them they wanted to stock them. Now stocked in Elphicks and many other luxury stores Ruby Rufus cashmere has been seen on many notable dogs including Kylie Jenner’s greyhound Bambi from Italy and Marc Jacobs dog Neville a staffy. Instagram-famous dog Tuna with over 2 m followers, loves this brand and with his tiny body and short coat he’s definitely in need of something to keep him warm. You can see him wearing Ruby’s designs at tunameltsmyheart.com. Ruby’s sweaters have become the very thing you want your little treasure to be seen in, for warmth and comfort.

Some people buy loads of jumpers so they can dress their pet differently each day, others just buy one practical cable knit. Her designs work for small and bigger dogs too.
Like us, Ruby borrows dogs as she also travels a great deal. We’ll certainly be on the lookout for stylishly dressed dogs. If you want your dog to be stylish and the ‘top-dog’ then check out
