And at least one entrepreneur has taken the simple gate to an even higher level, by having it made over with the help of the Rhode Island Institute of Design, Babson College and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to get an upscale, furniture-grade look with classy curves and ease of use.

Dog Tired
Dear teeny-tiny condo dweller, I'm talkin' to you. No room in that 382 square feet of living space for the dog's bed? Have you considered a Murphy dog bed? Thought not.
Yes, indeed, the Pet Murphy Bed by Midnight Pass is, by day, a rather attractive-looking cabinet made of rubber wood in black, mahogany or natural finish that stands 3 feet tall and a mere 10 inches deep. Perhaps to be used as a bar or bookshelf? Fold it out to reveal a 22-by-28-inch foam mattress (4 inches thick) that holds up to 200 pounds.
By day, bar/bookshelf. By night, dog bed. The Pet Murphy Bed is $279.95 and can be found at www.midnightpass.com or www.petmurphybed.com.If your dog is named Murphy, this could be particularly amusing.

Murphy beds
have been out of style for many a decade, but Midnight Pass has
brought them back. Sort of. Their version is for pets, and the
bed is tucked away in a cabinet, so guests will never know its
there. But at night, or whenever Fido wants a nap, you simply pull
the bed down, just like with a murphy bed. The cabinet is made
of ecologically sensitive rubber-tree wood that measures two feet
wide by three feet tall by 10 inches deep. The price for the hideaway
pet bed is $199

bed's cabinet is made of ecologically sensitive rubber-tree
wood and measures 2 feet wide by 3 feet high by 10 inches
deep, $199.95,

Dogged by Love
Instead of stressing over your lack of
a significant other, spend the evening in the company
of someone who consistently showers you with kisses
and attention, only asking in return for the occasional
scratch behind the ears and (maybe) to share your bed.
Doesn't
Fido deserve at least that much consideration on Valentine's
Day? Heck, for that sort of dedication, probably a whole lot
more.
Show Spot
(or Fluffy, as the case may be) how much you care by taking
your four-legged friend out for a, um, romantic moonlit walk
in The Pet Stroller ($129.95),
available through online-gift retailer www.MidnightPass.com.
The stroller's
open-mesh carrier is designed to hold small dogs (up to 25
pounds) and cats, and attaches to a wheeled cart. When your
pet pal is not on board, the carrier can be separated from
the cart, and the latter can be used to haul groceries and
such.
Don't own a
pint-sized pooch? Maybe you wouldn't be caught dead behind the
handle of some wimpy buggy. Either way, it's not a problem: A larger "SUV" stroller model
($189.95) is also available.

Pet
Transporters Catch on Among Urban Set
The
idea of a pet stroller invokes images of aged, fur-clad
ladies pushing their spoiled shiatsu's in Victorian
prams, but that’s hardly fair
to Lise King’s eminently practical invention.
Able
to haul animals weighing up to 50 pounds, Ms. King’s pet
strollers are designed for
owners of mid-size dogs — or enormous cats — and
are more likely to be used by the straphanger set.
“ It’s
a wonderful vehicle for people who live in cities,
where they have to take their cats to the vet in those
heavy, awkward carriers,” said Ms. King, adding
that the strollers are useful for transporting pets
that are old or injured.
The
canvas-and-mesh kennels are mounted on a steel frame with wheels,
and pass the Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s
rules requiring pets to be “carried in kennels or similar
containers.” The kennel is removable for off-road carrying.

TIP:
HERE ARE SOME GIFTS THEY DON'T HAVE
Unless
you really don't care about the recipient, it's
embarrassing to give him or her a gift
he or she already has. One sure way
to avoid this
gaffe (at least until this tip makes the idea wildly popular) is
to do your gift shopping at MidnightPass.com.
Here you find gifts
that defy
categorization, and imitation--gifts such as fancy music boxes,
beautiful ship models, rustic bird feeders, cutting-edge
tennis racquets, golf
sets for kids, harbormaster telescopes, street legal fold-up mopeds,
ornate wall fountains and much more. Truly a place to shop for
someone who already has everything he or she needs.
