Christmas Gift Guide For Dogs
Did you know that people spend over $350 million on Halloween costumes and treats on their pets?
And that's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Christmas gifts for our furry friends. With just a couple of weeks until Christmas, buying your pooch the perfect gift is probably on your mind, so to make things easier for you, we've compiled a list of the top five dog gifts for 2014.
1. Costumes
There is literally nothing cuter than your doggie in a cute outfit. The best part about this is that there are some seriously adorable Christmas outfits on the market right now. From Santa's little helper, reindeer and even gingerbread men outfits, there are so many great outfit ideas that we're sure your dog will just love! Your pooch will show their Christmas spirit in the cutest of ways while also staying warm if you happen to live in colder parts of the world. If your dog isn't the costume type, then try on some antlers or even an adorable Santa hat.
2. Xmas treats
Whether you buy some Christmas flavoured treats for your furry friend or make them yourself, your pooch will not turn his or her head up at these once-a-year-treats. If you don't feel like making your own, most pet stores have these at their counters. They are completely safe for dogs as they will not contain any ingredients which are prone to upsetting their stomach. If you're making treats yourself, then avoid using chocolate, onions, grapes and raisins as these can be toxic for dogs.
3. Toys
The best toys to buy your pooch, whether it's for a Christmas gift or just because, are ones that are going to last you a long time and that will also provide entertainment while you aren't around. KONG have a variety of toys that fulfil both these prerequisites. Simply pop some treats inside the KONG and allow your pooch to play with the chew toy and work out how to get the treat out. However if you're thinking of DIYing your pooch a present, there are plenty of tutorials online to make lovely Christmas themed toys which are safe and fun!
4. Walkies
From the personalised to luxe leather varieties, leads are not only great gifts but they are also useful ones that can last you for years to come. The best thing about leads is that there are so many out there to choose from. With so much choice, you are bound to find the right one for you and your dog.
5. For the pampered pooch...
Let's face it, some dogs just like the finer things in life. For those pets, there are some luxe gifts perfect for their Christmas stocking. Fragrances, shampoo, detangling sprays or doggy-safe nail polish are all great ideas. If your pup is a seriously pampered one, you might even consider treating them to a spa day.
