You can save on products for your beloved pet without sacrificing their quality.

Here are a couple of expensive dog products that have been found to have budget-friendly alternatives.

Designer bed

Expensive designer beds can cost a pretty penny, but dogs don't care about the brand. A much cheaper alternative is to take an old sweater or blanket, fill it with soft stuffing (like the insides of old pillows), and wrap it all in a cozy blanket.

Voila! You have a comfortable bed that smells like home and its owner, and that's the most important thing for a dog.

Automatic feeder

For a more budget-friendly option, you will need to purchase several simple plastic containers.

Divide the daily food ration into portions and place them in containers, then ask a family member or neighbor to feed the dog in your absence.

The advantage of this method is that your dog will not only get food, but also interaction.
