What Americans spend on pets

I ran across the following mind-blowing numbers - and came to the conclusion that there are vast sums of money out there if one is creative enough to capitalize on what people are willing to buy!

$38 Billion - Amount Americans spent on pet food and care in 2006, nearly double that spent 10 years ago

$2,000 - cost of a doggie nose job in Los Angeles

$395 - cost of a Burberry dog bed

$50 - price of an oatmeal body wrap for big dogs at LA Dogworks, a doggie spa

47% of dog owners say they buy holiday or birthday gifts for their pets.
