Jessica Alba looks upset as she shoots a scene for the forthcoming movie Valentine's Day

Oh, to be a dog of a celebrity!

Jessica Alba and Kristen Bell lavish their dogs with eco and animal friendly furniture.

Both ladies are clients of Greener Pup LLC., a company created by Kari Whitman, a dog rescuer and environmentalist.

Greener Pup features dog beds made from recycled fabrics and stuffing crafted from recycled plastic bottles.

Whitman gave tips for making your own doggie bedding in Modern Dog, and she recommends using animal friendly fabrics as well, such as pleather and artificial suede, Ultra Suede.

Whitman says she was “practically born recycling” and adopted a cow when you she very  young.

A barn made from recycled materials probably took some time to build!

Hulu has a pet channel, an all in one stop on the Internet for every good animal show, from Dog Town and Cesar Millan‘s Dog Whisperer to movies like The Lost Stallion to the clay animation of Wallace and Gramit.

It’s the Animal Planet of the Internet.

Like other Hulu shows, some of the episodes, clips and movies are more recent than others.

The clip below, from the Sundance Channel’s Big Ideas for a Small Planet, is about a woman who owns a natural pet foods store (ran with the assistance of her two Saint Bernards?).

Other clips from the channel feature the stories of dogs rescued in Iraq.

A recent article from a Northwestern University blog featured green pet ideas, from food to cleaning supplies.

Vegetarian and vegan pet food exists for both cats and dogs, but regardless if you choose to make your pet go veg, it’s always best to feed your animal food that is natural, organic and contains the fewest processed ingredients, according to Kelsie Dolezal, a certified veterinary technician at The Chicago Center for Veterinary Medicine, adding that it’s not difficult to “make your own.”
