PetSafe Drinkwell Indoor/Outdoor Fountain
PetSafe Drinkwell's original fountain was developed by a vet with your pet's health in mind — and now the company has an indoor/outdoor version that holds three gallons of filtered water. The opaque reservoir prevents algae from growing if the fountain is exposed to direct sunlight, and there's also a system that pushes water toward the filter to keep dirt and debris from settling at the bottom; $119.99.

Pet Projekt Bloat Blocker
Some pet owners joke about how quickly their dogs wolf down their food, but the behavior may lead to a serious medical condition known as bloat. Pet Projekt's Bloat Blocker, which attaches to all standard bowls, can make your dog tilt his head to eat and drink from the side, slowing down his gulping, which some believe may prevent the condition; from $10.

Dog Gone Smart Nanosuede Rectangle Beds
There's no denying it: Dogs get dirty. But the fabric used for Dog Gone Smart's new nanosuede rectangle beds (available in three sizes and a trio of colors) is bluesign standard-approved, so it fully repels everything. No, really — think water, mud, dirt and even bacteria; from $84.
