Christmas Gifts for Dogs and Dog Lovers


It's starting to look a lot like Christmas! If you have not yet started planning how you will fill your furkids' Christmas stockings this year, we hope some of these ideas will inspire you...




Kyjen-Treat-Triad-dog-puzzle-toy
Did you know that often the best way to tire your dog is to exercise his brain through stimulating games and learning new skills? 

The Treat Triad™ by Kyjen is a multi-function puzzle toy. Dogs must first learn to rotate the top spinner to unlock the three treat covers. Once unlocked, the dog must figure out how to lift the covers to expose the treats underneath. Treats may also be dropped directly through small holes.

RRP: $22 from www.gameondogs.com.au

Bow-Wow-Meow-Pet-Insurance
Purchasing pet insurance could be the best Christmas present you can give your fur baby… We get it - they are not just our pets, they are our life! And when they get sick or injured, you would do anything to get them better. 

While vet treatment today gives more options than ever for getting your fur baby healthy again, the reality is that the cost of vet treatment can quickly and easily run into the thousands.

So rather than the latest bling or toy, give your pet a more meaningful gift this Christmas – the promise that you’ll always be able to give him/her the best treatment, no matter what.



Pick up a new blinged out tag with up to date contact details – and while you are updating the tag, make sure that your dog's microchip details are up to date too!

Red-Dingo-Diamante-Dog-ID-Tags
Red Dingo tags offer a wide range of designs, reasonable price and prompt delivery to your home.

Their Diamante range of engraved pet tags is made of polished stainless steel with Swarovski Zirconia and can be ordered from many vets and pet retail outlets. 

For more details, visit reddingo.com.au


When it comes to your dog, the best present you can give is your time and undivided attention! 

Go on their favourite walk, let them take the time to sniff, make new friends at the local off-leash park and let them pee on all of the trees that they like.
