It’s the most wonderful time of the year! But it can also be the most difficult time to come up with gift ideas that are both thoughtful and different from every other year. This Christmas, we’re making it easy for you if you are shopping for the dog lover in your life. We’ve put together some ideas for Christmas gift essentials that you may not have considered previously, but could really make someone’s Christmas and New Year special.
Help them transport their dog more easily
If the dog lover in your life regularly takes their dog on outdoor adventures they’ll want a way to transport their pup securely. A great option for many drivers would be the Travall Guard, Divider and Tailgate. This neat trio of products gives one or two dogs a comfortable position at the rear of the vehicle. All three products are vehicle specific so you know you are getting a precision fit ensuring that there will be no annoying rattles to disturb your dog from napping on the journey. The all-new tailgate barrier ensures that when you arrive at your destination and lift the boot lid the dog is deterred from leaping from the boot. The trio are not only Christmas gift essentials, but year-round essentials.
Help them capture precious moments
Time spent with our pets is so special. As Agnes Sligh Turnbull once said, “Dogs’ lives are too short. Their only fault really.” With this in mind, why not capture time spent adventuring with a senior dog with a pet photo shoot day? There are plenty of photographers around the country who are keen to offer this service. Find details on photographers specialising in dogs in your area in the Dotty 4 Paws directory – a wonderful resource for pet parents and with plenty of other gift ideas too.
Help them to get fit and active
With the focus of 2020 turning to health and wellness more than ever before, providing a dog lover with a Canicross starter kit could be a great option. It’s a great way to ease a pet and their owner into running together in an activity that strengthens the bond between both and boosts wellbeing at the same time.
Help them to get away from it all
If being in lockdown in 2020 has given your dog lover cabin fever, a weekend stay at a dog-friendly cottage may be just the answer. With the potential of travel resuming more normally as 2021 progresses, why not book a weekend stay somewhere in the UK that you’ve never visited before? More and more companies are offering dog-friendly accommodation, so it’s worth taking a look at what is available in the destination of your choice.
