You heart your dog.  Hey, so do I.  Let’s face it, Los Angeles is a dog kind of town.  We rescue them, love them, dress them and revere them; why not show tribute to them with kitschy domination merchandise that show your dog as a dictator?  Seems like a logical next step to me.

Obeythepurebreed.com is slightly obnoxious, especially if you’re a mutt-lover like me, but I’m pretty sure this is all very tongue-in-cheek.  I mean, who knows, the owners of this site might indeed want a Yorkshire Terrier to take over the world, but I doubt it. (They do have a Mutt section.  The, “I like big mutts and I cannot lie” shirt is pretty proper.)  This online store is stock full of propaganda posters (think Che Guevara but as a Maltese),  t-shirts, bumper stickers and mugs.  You can look up your dog’s breed and get something that reminds you of him or her.  It’s just so freaking sweet.

There are so many fun things on the site, I decided to narrow it down according to breeds of cool dogs I know.  Here we go:

• For Cesar, the Pit Bull, I recommend that his owners start wearing the Pit Bull Revolution Baseball Jersey  ($22.90) to the dog park.  It’s a cool design and it states, “Obey the Pit Bull,” which makes me laugh because Cesar is the biggest sweetheart in the world and has probably never made anyone obey him.  Well, except for maybe his mommy.
• For Irvin, the Boxer, I think the ‘My Boxer Would Dominate Your Honor Student’ Bumper Sticker would be a nice fit.  At only $4.25, this sticker is an absolute bargain-basement way to show you care.  It’ll go nicely with his Coach collar.  Irvin knows that high-low fashion is really in right now.
• Mr. Snoops is a proud mutt like my dog but he’s gotta a lot of hound in there.  For him, I believe that he needs the Obey the Basset Hound! Freedom Dog T-Shirt. ($18.00)  The other dogs might make fun of him but he’ll know he’s hot.
• Tater Tot, the chihuahua already has more clothes than I do.  So, for him, I think it’s important to go all spiritual.  The My Chihuahua is Wise… Vintage Tile Coaster ($6.00) is perfect for him.  It compares him to a small, furry Buddha.  Plus, you can put your coffee on it.  Yay.
• My mother’s poodle, Lightning, is too cool for school.  That’s why I think he needs a Poodle Revolution! Propaganda Messenger Bag.  ($24.00) There’s nothing better than a poodle in a beret, right?  And, this bag actually looks pretty cute.  My mom can throw her laptop in it and represent for poodles while she’s chillin’ at Starbucks.

If you didn’t see your dog above, no worries.  I counted almost 60 breeds of dogs represented so there’s a good chance you’ll find him/her.  How they’re all going to take over the world, I have no idea, but it’s pretty funny.  If you, like me, are the proud owner of a Mutt, seek solace in the fact that we don’t need our dog’s face on merchandise to know that our dogs rock.  It’s rad that our dogs are unique! I mean, look at my Hogan McSmalls.  He don’t need no stinking Wall Clock to know he’s cool!
