For toys, here are some of my favorite brands:
* Kong - http://www.kongcompany.com/
* Tuffies - http://www.vipproducts.com/retail/files/鈥?/a>
* Planet Dog - http://www.planetdog.com/dogtoys.aspx
For bowls and beds, any brand will do. Stainless steel dog bowls are excellent because they don't absorb odors, don't harbor germs, don't break if dropped, and are dishwasher safe.

Also, for choosing a high-quality dog food, choose from the 4, 5, and 6 star foods on this website. (For puppies, stick to the 4 %26amp; 5 star foods, many of the 6 star foods are high-protein, which is better for adult dogs.)

*Zogoflex Dog Toys from www.westpawdesign.com
They are super durable dog toys, made in the USA, and my dogs love them!

|||Nylabone and Kong toys are very well made, and gauged for the size and age of the dog. They do not have any small parts that can be ingested, unless you have a very aggressive chewer, and then, the pieces will safely pass.
Baby puppies can have a nice latex squeaky toy, until they can get more than a third of it in their mouth, and then it goes in the memory box...
Good quality collars are made by Hamilton, Weaver Leather, or Circle T.
Bowls should always be made of stainless steel, available in many places - but NOTHING from China as there are to many things that appear safe but have been manufactured by far lower standards.
Great places to get stuff for dogs - KV Vet Supply, Jeffers Pet, Revival Animal Health, PetEdge, PetsMart, Drs. Foster %26amp; Smith...|||For collars, I recommend a harness, because collars are bad for dog's necks, especially delicate dogs.
The type of dog you have will affect the kind of toys you can buy. For example, there are some really cute, fluffy toys that are best for little dogs who don't pull and tear. A general rule is: 1) Don't buy anything with a "pull-off" part, i.e., pompom on hat, pompom nose, etc. 2) Monitor your dog when she plays with the toy. If she tears into the toy, she can eat the squeaker and possibly choke to death. 3) If your dog is a rough chewer, look for toys with a guarantee that they are virtually chew-proof.|||Kongs are fab.
A rope toy is good for teeth.
In fact Kong do a great range of all toys, although they are pricey they are so worth it, here is the website: ( http://www.kongcompany.com/ )
Collar, anything that is adjustable, and don't use chain collars.
Bowls, I find metallic are the best to clean out, and you can get special bowls with a small hole so the ears don't get into the food.
Beds, well anything big enough, comfy and fleecey, try and get one with a "wall."

Hope you get a lab they are very devoted love children ad will be your best friend forever sorry to offend any chocolate lab lovers but I've had a few...go black or yellow for a pup. Make sure you go to a reputable dog breeder and not a pet store or puppy mill and ask to see the sire and the dam and look at the kennel house and how the breeder cares for her dogs. Hope this helps....liz|||Chinese.|||anything from PetSmart.|||pets at home if you have one or any good pet store or superstore in your area
