In this post you will find some ideas as a Christmas for dogs because it is Christmas again and as always we want to enjoy it with our loved ones and among them we can't miss our dogs. Surely they are not aware that Christmas is coming and with it the gifts, what is clear is that they are not with the same level of consciousness with which we humans are, but they do notice that something changes and is different from their canine consciousness.
I've always wanted to take advantage of the festive season to buy what I know she needs now or in the near future, ok, even a little treat I confess. There are some very interesting offers at Christmas for our furry friends. If you are more or less familiar with the prices of products throughout the year, you can identify great bargains.
In my home, the whole family is very excited when Nala also has her little package next to ours under the tree. Even more so when her radar detects that it is something tasty and she tears up the paper and whatever she finds in her path. A good cuddle, food and a walk afterwards makes her day as magical as ours.
Below are some ideas for Christmas gifts for dogs that work for me:
1. Toys that stimulate their mind
Kong
It is a very complete toy and is available for all dog sizes, ages and bites. It is ideal for dogs that suffer from anxiety or need a lot of exercise. It allows you to play with your dog while you feed him, exercise him by hiding it so he can find it, and even challenge him to find the food and treats it contains. Plus, it's one of the toughest I've ever come across. In my opinion, it's one of the best gifts for Christmas or any time of the year for dogs.
2. Products for your hygiene and good rest
Brush
This is the brush I use with Nala and we are very happy. A good bath with a dog shampoo, followed by a good and relaxing brushing, can be a delight for your dog and a good and comforting Christmas present. If you already do the complete kit of bath, brushing, massage and a good rest in his confy bed, yourfurry friend will be in heaven. You will share many quality moments with your faithful friend.
3. Your favourite treats and food
Mini-burgers
You can prepare a special food, whether it is dry, wet, natural or BARF, there are many ways to make it different. I advise you to buy beef but don't give it raw if your dog is not used to it. Instead, put a little parsley and salmon oil on the meat, make little balls of meat, flatten them like mini hamburgers and put them in the oven for about 10 minutes until they are well done. Then let me know if it has sucked the paws.
4. Understand and play with your dog
Dog nutrition or education books
I confess that some of the books I have read have been a before and after for me. What's more, I wish I had discovered them much earlier. For me there are few pleasures like reading a good book and having Nala on my lap, listening to her calm breathing, touching her soft and velvety fur, as well as learning to understand her behaviour better and how natural nutrition can make a big difference in her health. Tell me which books are your favourites, I'd love to read them.
5. Ensuring their safety
The Furbo Dog Camera
If you are one of those who unfortunately have to leave your furry friend alone at home for a long time, if you don't trust your pet or if you simply like to gossip about what it does when you are not there, this camera is ideal. You can also communicate with him and throw him treats, yes you can hear it, so he won't feel so lonely and you'll feel much calmer.
6. Dress it up for the occasion
Although dogs, unless they are ill, are old, very cold or have very short hair, generally don't need clothes, you can put a jumper like yours as long as it's not too tight and allows them to move and do their needs naturally. I run away from outfits but I recognise that Nala has a Christmas jumper quite wide and comfortable that we use to go out in the street on very cold and snowy days and take advantage of it to take Christmas photos with her.
7. Always carry it with you
OK, this is more of a gift for guides and tutors. But hey! We deserve it;-). Socks are something we use a lot, so what better than wearing them with the face of our furry dog that we adore. This can be a great Christmas present for a dog lover.
