Christmas isn’t just for humans. It’s for your beloved pets too. Hoolio our Chihuahua get’s a present every year. I mean, I don’t go crazy but he does get a little something to open with everyone else. He loves opening his present on Christmas morning and they playing with the wrapping paper afterwards. We also have a new dog in the family this year. My brother in law has just got a Welsh Pembrokeshire Corgi called Nala so there’s an extra waggly tail to buy for this year.
I’m super organised this year and have already sorted the Christmas presents for the dogs. I thought I would put together a blog post of what to get your dog for Christmas for anyone who is struggling for ideas for their furry friend.
What to get your Dog for Christmas
Treats
Hoolio always gets a bag of his favourite treats which I wrap up every Christmas for him. One year I put them under the tree all wrapped ready for Christmas morning and he had sniffed them out weeks before. So now I can’t wrap his treats until Christmas Eve because otherwise he knows that it’s for him.
Personalised Doggy Towel
Make bath time even more fun with a cute personalised doggy towel. I love these hooded Doggy Towels from Hearts and Creations. They can be embroidered with your dog’s name and come in a range of colours. I’m definitely going to be getting one for Hoolio this year.
Dog Activity Monitor
Dogs need gadgets too and this is a present for you and your dog. The PitPat dog activity monitor is designed to monitor your dog’s exercise, rest, distance, calories and weight. Simply attach the PitPat monitor to your dogs collar and track your dog’s activity via a mobile phone app. If you are into fitness yourself then you’ll definitely love tracking your dog’s activity as well. The PitPat monitor is very lightweight so your dog won’t even notice it’s on their collar.
Doggy Jumper
If your dog is short haired and feels the cold then why not treat them to a doggy jumper. There are lots available on the high street and online. Make his gift even more festive and buy your pooch a Christmas jumper so he can join in the festivities with all the family. I used to dress Hoolio up all the time when he was a puppy and he loved all his snuggly Christmas jumpers.
A New Dog Bed
Why not treat your dog to a new dog bed. There is something for every price range, it doesn’t have to be expensive. Just a new place for them to snuggle up each night that you know they will love.
A Dog Blanket
Our dog is a blanket thief. He’s a short haired chihuahua and is always cold so he loves snuggling up in a blanket. A dog blanket is the perfect gift for your pooch this Christmas. They can snuggle up on Christmas Night with their new blanket and know how loved they are. Or go a step further and get them a personalised doggy blanket with their name on it.
Doggy Toys
Hoolio has a beloved walrus called Winston that he cannot part with. A little soft toy that squeaks can provide hours of entertainment for your dog as well as being a snuggle buddy at night time. I think I might need to buy a back up Winston soon just in case anything happens to him.
So that’s why round up of ideas of what to get your dog for Christmas. I’d love to know if you buy anything for your dog and what you normally get them each year. Let me know in the comments.
