You’re going green, so don’t forget Fido! Environmentally-friendly and socially-conscious green pet products are popping up all over the Web. Here are a few:

• At Eco Pet Life, you’ll find the perfect green starter kit to make your own natural flea and bug spray, biscuits, cleansing wipes and dry powder shampoo ($28).
• The Go Organic kit is no-commitment way to see if Spot’s taste buds warm to organic dog food ($16). The kit includes a three-pound bag of dry Organix adult canine formula, two cans of Organix adult canine formula and a box of Organix chicken-flavor dog cookies, all packaged in a reusable container.
• At Fabulous Pooch Lifestyle, four-legged friends can get glam while forgoing the harsh chemicals in flea treatment shampoos with organic shampoo.
• Olive is another one-stop-shop for green pet goodies. The recycled-cotton nesting bed with recycled PET fiberfill is sure to bring Spot sweet dreams ($80). The three-eyed alien plush dog toy made from natural wool yarn treated with vegetable-based dyes and hand-knit by a women’s collective in Kenya will rev up Rover for play time ($28).
• Want to do a little research without jumping head first into product buying? Eco Dog: Healthy Living for Your Pet is a new comprehensive guide to environmental dog care. As a bonus, you’ll learn several do-it-yourself projects, like how to recycle worn-out sweaters into a blanket for your pup or make a rosemary conditioner flea collar ($12).
