West Paw Interactive dog toys
If you’ve been following me for awhile, you know I’m a huge fan of the West Paw Toppl interactive treat toy. It’s the perfect gift for dogs and dog parents. This durable dog toy is easy to fill, easy to clean, and it keeps a dog busy! It’s the best of canine enrichment toys.
soggy doggy PlaceMat
Many, many dogs are sloppy drinkers! And their pawrents would love the gift of a Soggy Doggy Placemat to keep floors dry. This microfiber chenille placemat absorbs 5X more water than regular mats, and are machine washable.
Light the night
With the recent time change, I’ve found it’s already dark by time I get the girls out for an evening walk. I’ve used a light by Nathan Sports for a few years now, but as it’s discontinued, I’ve been testing other options. The Panasonic LED Neck Light is the perfect stocking stuffer! It lights the path ahead of you, and moves with you when lean down to pick up after your dog. Pair it with a rechargeable BSEEN LED dog collar, available in 5 colors!
Let’s get personal
Speaking of safety, the pet lover in your life is sure to appreciate a personalized pet safety decal from Charleston’s own Made On Maidstone. A truly custom gift, choose up to three pet silhouettes with names. These 5″ vinyl decals alert First Responders of pets inside a home in the event of an emergency.
Everyone loves to receive an unexpected treat, but receiving one that bears your dog’s very own name is sure to impress! Good Bones Company offers handmade personalized dog treats using organic ingredients and free of preservatives. Beautifully packaged with your choice of ribbon, they’re perfect for gift giving!
gift subscriptions
Give the gift of Bark Box! Each Bark Box comes with 2 toys, 2 bags of treats, and 1 chew tailored to the recipient pup’s preferences. With 1, 3, 6 and 12 month plans, there’s an option for any gift budget.
For the rescue-loving coffee drinkers in your life, choose from a 3, 6, or 12 month gift subscription from Grounds & Hounds Coffee Co. With Grounds & Hounds, every cup saves a pup as a portion of profits from every sale goes to support animal rescue organizations. Try the Lovable Blend, my personal favorite!

something different
Okay, hear me out on this one. If the dog lover in your life does not have a solution for what to do with dog poop until garbage day, an Arm and Hammer Munchkin Diaper Pail Starter Set is the perfect gift! It makes such a difference in keeping your garbage bin from having an overwhelming odor. Dog parents who don’t know this trick yet will be amazed! If you know…you know!
Go Big Or go home
Give the big gift of knowledge to your favorite dog parent with an Embark Breed Identification Dog DNA Kit. It’s such a fun way to learn more about your dog! And, it’s the most accurate Dog DNA test your money can buy.
Or take it up a notch and gift the Embark Breed + Health Dog DNA Kit, which includes testing for 20+ physical traits, and over 200 genetic health risks. Both tests connect you with profiles of other dogs who share DNA with your dog. It’s like a doggie relative finder!
