We Shopped For You! 14 Unique Gifts For Your Canine Companion
Our dogs bring so much to our lives; it is the season to show those we love that we are thinking of them – including our pups, young and old, as well as for those who care for them. We have 14 fantastic gifts to suggest, from handcrafted wooden puzzles, to leather tooled collars, toy baskets, snuffle mats, jewelry and more. Full disclosure: my mini bull terrier, Nora, has several Biothane bling collars from DinkyDogGear. We are obsessed!

Rainbow Snuffle Mat
What’s a snuffle mat? You sprinkle kibble in the mat and your dig gets to hunt and forage! Dogs love this food activity, and this Rainbow version is colorful and fun.
Luxury Biothane & Crystal Collars
The crystals bring the bling; the Biothane makes these waterproof and perfect even for everyday. Sophia Grindstaff handcrafts these in Omaha, NE and she will help you pick the perfect width, pattern and then the colors! You can choose the Biothane colors and the crystal colors, too. Let your inspiration soar, and create a custom collar for your pooch today!
Toy Basket
Our Nora, the mini bull, has a basket of toys that stays under a side-table in the living room. Makes it easy for us humans to clean up – and is the perfect height for her to choose a toy to play with. Win-Win.
