I heard about the show so I tried to watch in on line but wow way to many commercials. From what I saw, Kevin was a bit more condescending than he needed to be, bordering on being rude. I missed the opening part where she showed all the items but from what I could see there was nothing that was not already on the market. However with that being said perhaps some stores like Macy's will want to put a boutique like area in their stores with pet items, the market for dog accessories is huge and only getting larger. Now most of the pet items are only sold in pet stores, on line and hit or miss at places like Wallmart and TJ Maxx. While I prefer one of kind type of clothing for Lola and know where to get specialty items I don't think the average consumer is. I am always amazed when I see people in pet stores shopping for a harness for their small pup, (I think that the harnesses lines they carry for small dogs is horrendous) When I tell them how there is a much better selection on line or even at Wallmart they are totally shocked. So I think for many people finding a nice line of upscale pet items in their favorite department store might work.
I forgot the gentleman's name that invested but he knows his way around the department store industry and that means a lot, he also was only going to invest if she secured a certain amount in Purchase Orders so I guess time will tell if they make any money
