Luigi Maestro , a lovable Shih Tzu , roll down the sidewalk of the Upper East Side in New York City ( of class ) with his pet parent and author “ mom,”Anisha Lakhani . He sits smartly ( and a tad smugly ) in the front seat of his brilliantly whitened BMW convertible , with arresting rim and a tinted front window . Lakhani palm the remote ascendency … you did n’t really think Luigi could push , did you ?

The duration we go to impress our precious fur baby never ceases to amaze me . I have in person fallen dupe to the newest toy furor or ride tidbits of gourmet food . But , despite my favorite nagging , I ’m not buying him a motorcar .

However , a remote control Beemer is not the cockamamie gift on the mart for dogs . How about a doggy - inspired high chair for a nerveless $ 900 or a custom made walnut kitty cabinet starting at $ 475?You do n’t call them litter box seat at that Mary Leontyne Price .

Maybe Mr. Luigi Shih Tzu will require a prosperous confection for his next birthday . It runs around $ 1,000 , but does come in three domestic dog - friendly flavors ; peanut butter , pumpkin and banana tree .
