Posh pets duck recession.

It seems that nothing will get in the way of people pampering their pets. Even in a weakening economy many Brits still want to spend money on them. According to market research group Mintel, many owners have a strong emotional tie to their pets which has helped maintain strong sales. The accessories market in the UK is worth around 414 million U.S. dollars.
