Stocking Stuffers and Gift Ideas for Dogs

Tis the season for gift giving, and that includes the family pets. One of my family’s holiday traditions is exchanging our stockings on Christmas, along with opening one gift which usually is a pair of new pajamas. Our stocking exchange always includes the family dogs. If you are a regular reader of this blog, you’ve probably figured out that our dogs, Winston and Lilly, are spoiled rotten. I think that’s how it should be. This post about stocking stuffer and gift ideas for dogs is sponsored by Rachael Ray Nutrish for pets.

Stocking Stuffers and Gift Ideas for Dogs

Deciding what to put in your dog’s stocking can be a bit tricky, since there aren’t a whole lot of options aside from treats and toys.

When filling Winston and Lilly’s stockings I try to always include a couple of toys, a good chewing bone, some dental chews, and one or two of their favorite treats like Rachael Ray Nutrish Soup Bones. When choosing toys, I try to find ones that make noise and won’t get easily be torn to shreds. Lilly loves anything that squeaks and Winston likes a toy that he can play tug-of-war with.

A pretty new collar or leash is another great stocking stuffer idea.

Since the cold weather can be hard on pets, a soothing nose and paw salve is a nice treat. Lilly loves having a pawdicure, and getting the pads of her paws moisturized. A soothing oatmeal shampoo and conditioner will always be appreciated by your pups.

I make sure they also have something under the tree on Christmas morning. This year, I put a chalkboard label on a holiday tin and filled it with Winston and Lilly’s favorite treats.

Christmas is a great time to purchase your pet a new bed. Our dogs don’t need new beds right now, but Lilly loves getting new blankets to snuggle up in.

Do you give your pets holiday gifts?

  • Your dogs are adorable! While I have a dog, and many cats, I am afraid i dont make them stockings. I do however subject them to very bad Christmas carol singing which spoils their appetites 🙂

  • Your dogs are adorable! I always get my dog some very special treats during the Holidays and I wrap up his presents and he loves opening them!

  • We love giving our pets treats for Christmas too. We have a Lillie too. I didn’t know Rachael Ray had Soup Bone treats which I will be trying out on our doggies. They will love them I’m sure.

  • They are beautiful. Sadly I dont have pets anymore, where I live is not allowed. I used to give them gifts all the time. Just love animals so much.

  • You have such darling dogs! I have a cat and she got the cat arch (can’t remember the name…it’s an As seen on TV product) and she loved it.

  • Fantastic idea! I just wish I had a dog to give the gifts to…maybe you can suggest some feline alternatives?
