Top 15 Christmas Gifts for Dog Lovers


Love dogs and want the world to know it? Here are our picks of Christmas presents for dog lovers this year. As this is the season for giving, we selected a few items that also give back to support animal welfare and rescue groups.



Share your love of Greyhounds with the world with one of these awesome comfy lightweight t-shirts designed in Australia by The Friendly Doggo.

All women t-shirts are a regular fit and feature a scoop neck, capped sleeves and curved tails. They're also preshrunk to minimise shrinkage.

If you love "twinning", similar designs are available for men! Available in 6 sizes (from XS to 2XL).

A portion of proceeds goes towards Gumtree Greys who rescue and rehabilitate Greyhounds across Australia.


RRP: $24.95

Petflair took the world by storm in 2017 with their Kickstarter campaign! Choose from their amazing range of custom swimwear, towels, bags uniquely designed for you and your best friend – dog, cat, whatever!

Simply take a photo of your furry pal, upload it to their website and Petflair will create a unique design from your choice of colours, background patterns and styles!


These would make a unique present for the dog lover in your life and if you can't decide, why not give a Christmas Gift Card so they can choose? Please allow delivery time in early January 2018 as the company is at capacity to fulfill existing Christmas orders.
