Spring in Southlake means brunch on the patio, art-walk weekends, and—let’s be honest—plenty of photo ops. 🌸🐩 If your pup’s wardrobe still says “winter nap,” it’s time for a refresh. Below, our style editors round up the season’s must-have luxury pieces (and a few pro grooming tips) so your four-legged bestie looks flawless from snout to tail.
1 | Statement Collars: Where Fashion Meets Function
Why it matters – An elevated collar is the canine equivalent of a designer watch: subtle enough for everyday wear, iconic enough to spark compliments.
| Trend | What to Look For | Southlake Paws Pick | 
|---|---|---|
| Italian leather pastels | Butter-soft grain, hand-painted edges | Amalfi Blush Collar – blush leather, matte-gold hardware | 
| Gem-grade crystals | Rivet-set stones (never glued), nickel-free plating | Monte Carlo Crystal Collar – 400-facet Czech crystals | 
| Monogram chic | Precision laser engraving, contrasting thread | Heritage Initial Collar – choose serif or script | 
Pro Tip: Condition full-grain leather every 4–6 weeks with a neutral balm to keep it showroom-smooth.
2 | Harnesses & Leashes Built for Jet-Setters
Whether you’re power-walking around Lake Grapevine or boarding a NetJets flight, comfort is non-negotiable.
- 
Reversible Neoprene Harnesses – Breathable Airmesh lining on one side, runway print on the other. Clip-in D-ring sits higher on the shoulders, preventing trachea pressure. 
- 
Artisan Rope Leads – Hand-spliced cotton rope finished with yacht-grade whipping and solid-brass snap hooks—lightweight, yet strong enough for a 120 lb Retriever. 
- 
Hands-Free City Lead – Italian Saffiano leather with six adjustment points so you can text, sip, or shop without the dreaded arm-tangle. 
✂️ Size guide in two sentences: Measure the widest part of your dog’s chest; add one inch for movement. If you’re between sizes, choose the larger harness and cinch the waist sliders for a bespoke fit.
3 | Dream-Worth y Dog Beds
After a long day of turning heads, your pup deserves a cloud.
- 
Furniture-Grade Crates – Crafted from FSC-certified ash wood with museum-grade acrylic doors; doubles as a side table for your cocktail books. 
- 
Orthopedic Loungers – NASA memory foam core + cooling gel layer, wrapped in washable bouclé. Perfect for senior joints—and minimalist interiors. 
- 
Travel Nests – Fold-flat sherpa-lined pods that buckle into car seats for road-trip naps. 
Designer insight: Stick to the same neutral palette you use in your living room (think linen, oat, or charcoal). Cohesion is the essence of quiet luxury.
4 | Grooming That Glows
A luxe look lasts only as long as the coat underneath:
- 
Weekly Deshedding – Use a 40-pin slicker brush in gentle strokes; follow with a coat-polish serum containing argan oil. 
- 
Spa-Level Bath – Choose sulfate-free shampoos infused with silk proteins. Massage for three full minutes to lift environmental toxins. 
- 
Signature Scent Mist – Finish with a pH-balanced fur fragrance (think yuzu & white tea) for a subtle aura—never overwhelming.
