When that first chill hit the air, the spectacle of canine couture was something to behold. Braided camel and chocolate cashmere sweaters by Rani Arabella, Ralph Lauren heather gray cables and hunting jackets—the human population had nothing on our furry friends. And fashion is just the beginning. New York dogs are so humanized and coddled, they not only have designers, they have chefs, chauffeurs, house call physicians, legal advisers, massage therapists, dentists—even plastic surgeons.

House Calls Why trek out in the cold to visit a doctor, when one will come to you? Dr. Cindy Bressler makes house calls for everything from check-ups and vaccines to late-night emergencies.

Dentistry Whether it’s a routine cleaning or braces, board-certified dog dentist Dan Carmichael will handle your pooch’s teeth with care.

Prescriptions Looking for chicken flavored anti-depressants? You’ll find them at Best Pet RX, along with any other medication a pup might need—and actually enjoy taking. The Upper East Side pharmacy specializes in veterinary compounding and caters exclusively to the four-legged set.

Legal Advice Trusts for pets (think Leona Helmsley), custody battles and defense against bite and barking complaints, as well as breed discrimination can all be handled by a savvy animal attorney like Amy Trakinski.

Plastic Surgery Those wrinkles on a shar-pei can be diminished with surgery or Botox; there are tummy tucks for bloated bellies and nose jobs for pooches with pushed in faces. “These procedures have health advantages, such as reducing bacteria, easing breathing, or minimizing pain, but the side benefit is cosmetic,” says Dr. Mark Levy. One warning: unlike the Miss America pageant, American Kennel Club judges will disqualify any show dog found to have had a little work done.

Cuisine Alireza Niroomand, who formerly worked for Alain Ducasse, has found a new calling—gourmet dog food. Each day he heads to the butcher to select ground meat, then whips up healthy meals with fresh vegetables and grains. He delivers DOOD to his clients’ doors in vacuum-sealed packets. The latest favorite offering: chicken, barley, broccoli, sweet potatoes, parsley and flax seed.

It may look like cold cuts or pâté, but Freshpet food is never processed or modified in any way. It’s made from meat and poultry, whole grains, fresh fruit and vegetables. Try not to spread it on your own sandwich.

Hospital Care A 64-slice CT scanner exclusively for animals is practically unheard of, but the Animal Medical Center has one. It also has 17 specialists and is the only non-profit animal hospital in the city.

Spa Treatments Massages, hot oil conditioning and “pawdicures” are offered along with standard grooming at The Dog Store. After a day of pampering, swaddle your relaxed canine in one of the shop’s shearlings that have been flying out the door.

Chauffeuring Luxury Pet Travel’s fleet of black SUVs will transport dogs anywhere in the tri-state area. The Hamptons and private airports are their specialty and there are treats on board, 917-716-9156.

Handbags To you, it’s another purse, to them a second home. Pet Royalty makes carriers so stylish; no one will know there is a creature inside.
