If you are one of the lucky few who have received your fancy new iPhone 5, then you’re probably bouncing around with excitement. Hopefully, you aren’t bouncing so much that you’ve already dropped your piece of Apple gold. Yep, that’s right — the iPhone 5 is just as susceptible to gravity as its predecessors were.

Luckily for you, cases for the iPhone 5 are coming out fast. We carry a wide variety of cases, from the streamlined slider style to robust protection. And of course, I can’t forget my favorite case — the CandyShell by Speck.

I want to take this opportunity to have a little heart-to-heart with you. I am in love with the way Apple designs their iPhone look. It is absolutely gorgeous and if I weren’t Mr.Butterfingers, I would roll with my iPhone 4S case-less. Alas, after breaking my 1st Gen. iPhone, I haven’t had the courage to use my iPhone without some type of protection on it. Currently, I use a Speck CandyShell Card case and it works great.

So to highlight a few options that you have PDO continues to make their Slider Case. This lil’ guy gives you some scratch protection and a moderate amount impact protection. Unfortunately, we are still waiting to get these in our stores but you can pre-order them on our website for $24.99 and we will get it to you as soon as we get them.

Next up would be my favorite the Speck CandyShell. Hard plastic outside, soft rubber inside and it won’t melt in your hand or your mouth (Just to be clear I advise against eating you iPhone). The Speck CandyShell will set you back $34.99 and give you the best balance of protection and streamlined design I’ve seen in a case yet.

The final case I want to mention is the OtterBox Defender. Now OtterBox has been protecting electronics for some time now, and they are darn good at it. Wanna show your friends how far you can throw your iPhone? I suggest putting it in an OtterBox Defender before letting it rip. The drawback of the Defender is that it adds so much bulk onto the device that it doesn’t look as nice as a bare iPhone and getting it in and out of pockets can be tricky.

Whether you like your iPhone with a small, medium, or large amount of protection, Small Dog has a variety of options for you to choose from. I highly recommend stopping by one of our three locations or checking out what we carry on our website. Here’s to a cracked glass-free two years for all of you with the iPhone 5!
