The eagerly anticipated Christmas adverts from John Lewis, Marks and Spencer, and Boots have been aired, which means for many people in the UK that shopping for Christmas has officially started! According to a report published at the end of 2016, Britain’s dog owners spend an estimated £10.6 billion on their dogs every year with the average dog owner spending £1,252 annually on their dog.1 95% of UK dog owners also consider their dog to be a family member, so with Christmas just around the corner, we thought it might be helpful to give some ideas for presents for the dog (or dog lover) in your life.
Help your dog to…
…have a special place in the car protected from shifting cargo.
A Travall Guard and Divider are the perfect combination of vehicle-specific products for transporting your pet as they offer a special place at the rear of the vehicle ensuring you won’t have driving distractions from an excited dog. The Travall Guard also helps give passengers additional protection from loose items in the boot. The Travall Divider gives 2 dogs a space of their own or separates your dog from other items in the boot.
