Share Article
While it’s almost second nature to associate Labor Day with the end of summer (and starkly outdated rules about wearing the color white), it’s not just a time for savoring those last watermelon margs and weekends at the beach of the season, it’s also a time for deals on things you can buy just for the pet that’s spent all those sweet summer days by your side.
There are deals on everything from pricey pet hair vacuums to memory foam dog beds to specialty shampoo purchases you might not otherwise justify. If you’ve been looking to splurge on a dog bed that isn’t totally beige and blah or an aesthetic litter box that you won’t need to hide behind furniture, now’s your time to shine. So, go live out these last dog days of summeropens in a new tab, and we’ll catch up on the biggest Labor Day sales once you and your pup have had your post-swim nap.
Btw, our editors (and their pets) picked out these products. They’re always in stock at the time we publish, but there’s a chance they’ll sell out. If you do buy through our links, we may earn a commission. (We’ve got a lot of toys to buy over here, you know?)
Anthropologie
When it comes to home decor and all things fashion, there’s no more tempting a place to splurge than good old Anthropologie. From handcrafted boho pet beds to decaled stoneware bowls to the coziest throw blankets your dog or cat will claim as their own, perusing their Labor Day seems like a safe choice that might literally pay off.
They’re offering 20 percent off select ready-to-ship home furniture and decor, along with their regular sale items, so there’s something for everyone — and every pup — this holiday.
Dyson
You’ll pay full price for an essential home item if you have to, but you don’t have to — especially this weekend. Happy news: Dyson’s Ball Animal Vacopens in a new tab is currently a whopping $200 off. While you’ll find other deals during Dyson’s Labor Day sale, you aren’t likely to find one that your housemates, furry and non, will be just as jazzed about. Your Pomeranianopens in a new tab has enough fur as it is, they don’t care to have more coating their favorite nap spot.
