Here are some of our favorite Americana classics for the patriotic pooch in your life…

2. Red Classic Stripe Collar by Mattie & Margot – Perfect for holidays, and everyday wear. This classic print will be your go-to collar.

3. Ashford Bandana by Billy Wolf – What is a summer celebration without navy gingham? With a vintage vibe, your pup will be right on trend!

5. Monroe Travel Pouch by Billy Wolf – The perfect accessory for a dog on the go. A clip lets you attach the bag to your jeans or rucksack so the collapsible bowl is at the ready when your pooch needs to grab a bite to eat.

6. Orbee Tuff Baseball by Planet Dog – Ah, America’s (and your dog’s) favorite pastime. Made of award-winning Orbee-Tuff compound, this very safe ‘baseball’ sails when hit by a bat or simply tossed. Perfect for a backyard ballgame with your favorite ‘fielder’ – your dog will love it more than the original. Non-toxic, recyclable, rinses clean, and of course, Made in the USA.
