pooch pipe

Should we choose to accept (although it was either accept, or get a zero)- our mission, was clear. 

"Use one of the creative techniques mentioned in class to come up with a new product related to your favorite pet/animal."

WELL THEN.

Let it be known that I accepted the challenge/assignment.

And as a result, from within the dark pits of churning procrastination my idea has arisen!

It is a grand and noble one indeed.  

The battle was fierce and took its toll upon me, but I persevered none the less. 

Though turmoil ensued, from the ashes, lo and behold an image came forth that spoke of a new day. 

and that new day is finally upon us, bringing this sole idea to life.

The animal I chose to design for is the dog (original, I know.) And more specifically the Boston Terrier, who's nickname is "The American Gentleman."

So for this grand breed I have devised a little gentleman's getup to truly put them into character. 

Now for my invention: THE DOG PIPE.

WAIT,
now hold on there,

For the love of god NO, I have not invented a smokeable pipe intended for dog usage. 

NO. 

My idea is for a pipe made of a hard rubber (such as the rubber in Kong toys) with a notch in the end where one would stick a bone for a dog to chew on.

When carrying around the toy, the dog would instinctively carry it from the bone end, and thus appear to have a cute little pipe in their mouth.

Before:

After:

BAM. Instant sophistication.

Now that is one classy lassie.

warmest of regards,
