Gifts for Dog Lovers
68Dog gifts for owners and pets
Puzzling over what to buy for someone for Christmas or birthday? If she's a dog owner, you have plenty of great choices! Most dog owners love their pooches, and a dog-related gift will be much appreciated. Such gifts for dog owners are available in pet shops and even in some trendy boutiques. You can find them easily online, and especially on Amazon. Some are generic items that would be fine for any dog lover, while some are breed specific. Discover what breed of dog your friend has and start from there for dog gifts.
Below are some suggestions:
* Gift certificates to pet shops and pet supply stores are much appreciated dog gifts.
* A fancy collar and matching leash. If the gift is for one of the little fru-fru dogs, get one with some bling!
* A drawing of the dog. Snap a photo of Fifi one day while your pal's not around. Send it to an online artist for a sketch or portrait of the pooch. Your friend will love this great gift for dog owners!
* Take a great pic of the pup and have it framed. Better yet, have the photo blown up to poster size.
* Get a coffe cup or mug depicting the specific breed.
* Breed-specific key rings can be found online and in gift shops. A friend recently gave me a pewter Great Dane key ring.
* I found a great pocketbook online that has a silkscreen photo of a Great Dane that looks exactly like my dog. When folks see me with the handbag and the dog at the same time, they always ask how I got his pic on my bag!
* A breed-specific mouse pad. You can find these dog gifts online.
* A sweater or sweatshirt for the owner is another good idea for dog gifts. Get one that depicts your friend's dog's breed.
* A book about your friend's dog's breed. You can find these pet gifts at pet stores and online, and they make useful gifts for dog lovers.
* Dog Christmas ornaments make great pet gifts.
* Gourmet dog treats make unique pet gifts. These are so cool! You can find ones that look like human goodies, in the shape and appearance of petits fours, cupcakes, lollipops, and fancy pastries. You'll be tempted to eat them yourself! I've found these online and at high-end pet shops.
* A dog sweater. Measure the dog from the base of the neck to the base of the tail so you'll know what size to purchase. Compare prices online - there's a huge range of prices.
* A breed-specific calendar. These are loaded with color photos of dogs representing specific breeds. They're also available with mutt pics, and some just depict puppies of several different breeds and mixed breeds. You'll find the best selection online.
* Dog movies. Some great movies about dogs include Homeward Bound, Bobby's Greyfriar, Big Red, Savage Sam, Where the Red Fern Grows, Sounder, and of course, the classic favorite, Old Yeller. Search the bins at Walmart or your local video store for copies. They're also available online, and these are dog gifts that will keep on giving.
