Seen At 11: New Yorkers Spend Lavishly To Pamper Their Pooches

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- Custom-designed clothing, meals prepared by a personal chef, and a trove of priceless jewels; sounds like the good life, huh?

Not bad, considering we're talking about pets and the new extremes their owners go to for a pampered lifestyle, CBS2's Kristine Johnson reported.

Couri Hay gives her King Charles Cavaliers a lifestyle second to none.

"You don't have to have a private garden or a private chef or all the extravagant things Cornelia and Webster have, but they need love," Hay said.

and there's plenty of that, but there's also much, much more.

"How can you be a top dog without a closet?" she said.

Inside that closet? A wardrobe of leashes, matching raincoats, bath robes, travel bags, designer sweaters, couture costumes and of course, there are jewels.

"They're just small, little diamonds and rubies and emeralds," Hay said.

And there's also a custom dog house.

"It's a dog house built for all of us," she said.

But if your dog prefers a house for one, $32,000 will get you a house by Samsung that includes a specially designed interior, treadmill, pool, automatic feeder and the latest technology for downtime.

"We're starting to see us go a little overboard with pets and that's not necessarily a bad thing because the truth is dogs, especially, do a lot for us," said psychotherapist Diane Lang.

Lang said dogs reduce stress levels and can help us through trying times, but she cautions it's too easy to be extravagant with our furry friends.

"Can we really afford what we're doing? Is this becoming too much? Lang asked.

When Maise travels, owner Nikki Gallas has a wardrobe of custom coats for her, plus goggles and a helmet. That's because it's safety first when they take their Moped out for a spin.

"Life is very good for Maise, she never stays home," Gallas said.

For the last two years, 3-year-old Mama and owner Matt Dillion have induldged themselves with a monthly one-night staycation at a pet-friendly New York hotel.

"To come outside and have like a miniature escape park just for her," said Dillion.

Between food, toys and vet bills, even your moderately pampered pooch can still cost you up to $3,000 a year, Johnson reported.
