As dog owners, we want to make our pups feel welcome and comfortable in the home they share with us while taking pride in our canine counterparts. That doesn’t mean we must sacrifice the interior design of our home.
There are plenty of dog decor accessories that can complement our homes while keeping them stylish. So, get your fang shui on and check out seven ways to add a little dog decor into your home!
1. Lay it Down with Doggy Doormats

Let guests know you’ve got a pupper at home with a dog-related doormat. You can go simple with J&M’s Wipe Your Paws mat or go all-out with a welcome message like Design Imports’ Home is Where Someone Wants to Greet You mat. Both mats are designed to catch dirt and debris to help keep your house spotless. Plus, these mats are easy to clean; just pick them up, shake off all the dirt and you’re good to go.
2. Express Yourself with Dog Signs

There’s more than one way to declare your love for dogs, and it doesn’t have to involve your guests seeing dog hair on your furniture or a dog rope toy in the middle of the hallway. Dog signs offer a great way to proclaim your puppy love while adding a bit of fun flare into your home.
We’re all too familiar with the “Beware of Dog” signs often displayed on windows and fences, but what about a Beware of Dog Kisses sign from Primitives By Kathy? This fun spin-off of the classic Beware of Dogs sign should have guests laughing—and maybe conscious of avoiding your affectionate pup’s mouth.
For those who like inspirational quotes, Malden International Designs’ Wag More Bark Less dog sign is a must-have—and something we all can stand to hear from time to time. This sign can be hung on a wall or placed on a table, so the message comes across to anyone who sees it.
For a dog sign that also has functionality, Primitives By Kathy “Only Speaking to My Dog” dish towel may be for you. Use it to dry your dishes and give people the FYI: “Leave me alone. I’m only speaking to my dog today!”
3. Furnish with Fashionable Dog Beds and Dog Blankets

Let’s face it, we love to spoil our pets. Why not provide your pup with her own dog bed to enjoy that also matches your home decor? Frisco’s sofa dog bed is covered in a stylish gray chenille jacquard and features an orthopedic textures plush bolster for pups of all ages to enjoy.
Don’t forget a cozy dog blanket! Pair your pet bed with Frisco’s sherpa blanket. Designed with a geometric print pattern in two tones, the blanket is made out of super soft Sherpa—you might find yourself cozying up in this blanket!
