Going on a Holiday shopping spree? Don't forget your furry friends!

If last year's numbers are any indication, then it looks like 2012 is going to be another record year for holiday spending.  Where do pet owners factor in the equation?

Industry insiders anticipate that spending on pets will top out at nearly $53 billion this year.  That's a lot of dog biscuits! Can you imagine how many chew toys that would buy?

If you're hitting the mall, the online shops or coming up with some do-it-yourself gifts, don't forget to pick up something for your four-legged friends.  When it comes time to exchange presents, don't let your beloved animal friends come through the holidays empty-handed, er, empty-pawed we mean!
