Meet the Barkers

Cheeko B Pet Boutique

Mandals, polygamists, dogs dressed like Barbie: a few of your pet peeves.

Thanks to Cheeko B pet boutique, your pooch won’t resemble a furry, four-legged JonBenet.

The new Trendynob pet hub has everything from pet wigs to party collars. Class up your canine with a vintage necktie for the office or a pair of Doggles to stave off the rays. Blueblood collars in fun prints and colorful mesh Puppia harnesses put a spring in their step. A sporty pet stroller or Sleepypod carrier saves shorties some legwork, and a rubber shoe sole mesmerizes big barkers for hours.

Hop on the gravy train with a bottle of Sauvignon Bark (Meowlot for the kitties). Gourmet treats, Kung Fu Fido fortune cookies, and the organic/holistic food corner set tongues wagging and keep gums giddy.

Because you also hate halitosis of any kind.

Cheeko B, 611 Post Street, at Taylor Street (415-440-1221 or cheekob.com).
