2006 Dog Products Of The Year Awards
Welcome to the 3rd Annual Dog Product of the Year Awards,
(aka the "Doggy Awards"), chosen to honor the
best products on the market and serve as a buying guide
for dog parents looking for the highest quality goods for
their pet.
At PupLife.com, we review thousands of products for dogs
every year. Our dogs test these products, and only the best
are chosen for inclusion on our site. Over the year, we
gauge overall sales, product testing results and customer
feedback for our products. Ultimately, the winners of the
Dog Products Of The Year Award become clear. We've chosen
the best for several categories as well as our choice (revealed
at the bottom) for the best Dog Product Of The Year.
So, drum roll please... And the Doggy Awards go to...
