Pet acupuncture hits Hollywood
Posted Oct 21, 2008
When we heard Jennifer Aniston was helping her beloved pooches with a spot of therapy we couldn't help but wonder if we had been neglecting our own furry friends. After a bit of research a recent New York Post helped us to pin down the celebrity vet du jour - Dr. Patrick Mahaney.
A pet health expert working in Los Angeles, Dr. Mahaney combines a traditional veterinary practice with a dash of Eastern wisdom which has developed a celebrity client list that according to Blog talk Radio now includes along with Jennifer Anniston - Patrick Dempsey, Bryce Howard and Alicia Silverstone.
Unusual for a vet (but perhaps commonplace in Hollywood?) Dr. Mahaney offers a house call service called California Pet Acupuncture & Wellness (CPAW) that aims to ensure comfort and wellness for one's pets. He believes a pet’s health and mobility can be compromised as a result of age related changes, trauma, surgery, or cancer and by improving the well being of pet it enhances the connection we share with them. Treatments include acupuncture, home environment consultation, veterinarian supervised exercise sessions, hospice services, and even euthanasia - and there we were thinking a a daily walk was enough.
We intend to keep our European feet firmly on the ground - however in the meantime and before we need to resort to acunpucture, we'll aim to keep our dogs close at hand inside the very cute new Dolce&Gabbana Miss Cat and Miss Dog bags - in-store for Christmas.

At 27, Dolce&Gabbana have achieved an impressive status, client base and cult following. The brand’s capacity to take the artistic traditions and aesthetic of Italy and make them their own is unsurpassable and highly romantic to fashion lovers. Their idiosyncratic designs, ironic take on classic dress and the brand’s emblematic items have all contributed in making Dolce&Gabbana a household name. For this instalment of our archive lead considerations of what makes up the Dolce&Gabbana DNA we concentrate on maybe one of the strongest statement the designers have made over the years: the corset.
When I was a child, my parents used to take me to a little village, where we would have almond “granita” and collect fresh water form a little drinking fountain, afterwards. This little place is called Scopello and it was time for me to return to my childhood and explore as an adult.
The scenario is…you are only in London for 24hrs. This doesn’t have to mean being stuck in your hotel wanting but not knowing what to do. Enlightened travellers continually ask the question - What would a Londoner do? Have no fear Luxury London is here…
There’s no need to go far afield to exotic locations to find adventure. In recent years adventures have been rediscovering urban winders right on our very doorsteps. Urban Exploration, known also as Urbex or UE, is an (often illegal) activity that explores unseen or unknown sights in the urban environment.
It appears that Ivan Olita’s scouting has led him straight to New York City’s very own scout, a movie location scout to be exact. Nick Carr’s job means that he gets to explore every nook and cranny that NYC has to offer, allowing him to discover the hidden details that many wouldn’t see. Ivan Investigates…
Whilst collaborating with Swide for The Matt Silk Collection SS12 video, Luca Finotti gave us the chance to get him in front of the camera for an exclusive interview. Whether it’s talking about his love affair with the camera, his views on what ‘ugly is’ or how he keeps himself sane, the up and coming fashion director was as natural in front of the camera as he is behind it.
The Cannes Film Festival is the epitome of European high glamour on the French Riviera. Sun, surf and…suits. Swide catches three stars who put their best foot forward in Dolce&Gabbana. Gerard Butler, Mathew McConaughey and Zac Efron got suited up to face the onslaught of press photographers that infest every event at Cannes.
Kylie Minogue has had a very very good week indeed. Sparkling brighter than ever at the Cannes Film Festival premier of ‘Holy Motors’, wearing Dolce&Gabbana, and then causing explosive reaction throughout the internet when her new single and video ‘Timebomb’ was dropped today.
