THE BLOKES’ GUIDE TO SPOILING THE MUTT THIS CHRISTMAS
Because why should the kids get all the treats? Your four-legged legend has been there through the hangovers, the heartbreaks, the Sunday afternoon Premier League meltdowns, and probably knows more of your secrets than your mates do. This Christmas, step up and give the dog (or cat, if you’re that way inclined) the kind of high-tech, stress-free lifestyle upgrades usually reserved for people who say things like “I’ll circle back later.”
Whether you’re visiting family, working late, or just want to avoid the guilt-inducing stare that says “is it dinner time yet, you useless human?”, these smart pet gadgets from Groov-e are the perfect way to keep your furry sidekick fed, watered, and feeling properly pampered.
