I’m not a huge animal person (pets = trouble) however, if you do happen to be a dog lover there’s a new book in town that’s right up your alley.

Eco Dog by Corbett Marshall and Jim Deskevich looks pretty darn good – even to a non-dog person. This book covers all sorts of important nontoxic and planet-friendly doggy care topics such as:

• Potential dangers of conventional pet food and other option.
• Homemade natural dog treats.
• Healthy grooming products and accessories.
• Green doggy shopping tips.
• 25 home projects for all-natural dog care alternatives, such as Rosemary Conditioner instead of chemical-laden flea collars and Felted Dog Blanket made from recycled sweaters.

The images look great and I love the layout. As a bonus, the book is made with sustainably harvested paper and vegetable based inks. A tree hugging dog lover is sure to adore this book  and find plenty of ways to green their dog owning experience.

Do you have a dog? Do you try to choose green alternatives to conventional dog care?
