The holidays are just around the corner, and while we’re busy finding the perfect presents for friends and family, don’t forget about the most loveable member of your household—your puppy! Whether you’re a new puppy parent or want to spoil the dog lover in your life, there are plenty of thoughtful and fun gifts that are perfect for your furry family members.
We know how important it is to keep your pup happy, healthy, and entertained. That’s why we’ve put together this Puppy Gift Guide: Spoil Your Furry Best Friend This Holiday Season! to help you find the perfect presents for your fur baby!
1. A Cozy Bed for Sweet Dreams
Every pup needs a comfy spot to snooze! Gift your puppy a soft, plush bed that’s just their size. Look for options with washable covers and supportive cushioning to keep your pup warm and cozy after a long day of play. Take a look at this cozy dog bed!
Fun fact: When you take home your Sappy Paws puppy, we include a blanket with their littermates’ scent to help them feel at home in their new bed. This helps the transition period go smoothly and allows for a more restful first night!
2. Interactive Toys for Mental Stimulation
Puppies are curious by nature, and interactive toys are a great way to keep their minds engaged. Puzzle feeders, treat-dispensing balls, or snuffle mats are excellent options to challenge your pup and keep them entertained.
Our Favorite: The KONG Classic toy—fill it with peanut butter or treats for hours of tail-wagging fun!
3. Chew Toys for Teething Relief
If you’ve got a teething puppy on your hands, durable chew toys are an absolute must. They help soothe sore gums and keep your pup from nibbling on your furniture or shoes. Opt for non-toxic, puppy-safe materials.
Recommended Gift: Teething ring designed specifically for puppies.
4. Stylish Collars and Leashes
Why not let your pup make a fashion statement? A new collar or leash is a practical yet adorable gift. Personalize the collar with your puppy’s name and your contact information for added safety.
Seasonal Tip: Look for festive designs like plaid, snowflakes, or holiday-themed patterns for an extra touch of cheer. Reflective is a bonus!
5. Puppy-Approved Treats
What’s a holiday without a few special treats? Find healthy, puppy-safe treats to reward your furry friend. Look for options made with high-quality, natural ingredients that are easy to chew and digest.
DIY Idea: Bake your own treats! Check out a previous blog we did with homemade treats! Try using ingredients like pumpkin, peanut butter (unsweetened, without xylitol), and oats to whip up a batch of homemade goodies.
6. A New Food and Water Bowl Set
Upgrade your pup’s mealtime setup with a cute bowl set. Look for non-slip bases and stainless steel or ceramic materials that are easy to clean.
Tip: Consider a slow feeder bowl if your puppy tends to eat too quickly.
7. A Personalized Tag or Ornament
Make this holiday extra special with a personalized gift! A custom ID tag is thoughtful and practical. Or, celebrate their first holiday with a personalized ornament featuring their pawprint or photo!
This holiday season, let’s celebrate the joy our puppies bring to our lives by treating them to something special. Whether it’s a cozy bed, a fun toy, or a yummy treat, your pup will love being included in the holiday festivities.
