Most dogs would wag with excitement with just a few extra minutes of petting, but if you want to go the extra mile for your furry friend, we’ve rounded up a few of our favorite gifts for dogs. Whether they’re into treats, toys or fashionable accessories, these are the best dog gifts for any dog, dog mom or dog dad.
1. For the best dog ever: BarkBox
Why give your dog just one gift when you could give them a box full of goodies every month? BarkBox is an extremely popular dog toy subscription box. Each BarkBox has a fun monthly theme—things like Pool Party, Italy Play-cation, and even Harry Potter and Jurassic World—and includes two toys, two bags of all-natural treats and a chew. There’s even a Super Chewer box for dogs who tend to play rough.
2. For the extra-smart dog: Outward Hound Puzzle
If your dog is too smart for their own good, the Outward Hound Nina Ottosson Puzzle is one of the best interactive dog toys to keep them busy. This cool toy comes in a variety of designs, and each one is categorized into a difficulty level ranging from one (easy) to four (expert). There are lots of little compartments where you can hide your dog’s favorite treats, and your pup will have to work to get the covers open for their reward.
3. For the dog who hates being alone: Eufy Pet Camera
You can keep an eye on your dog—and even talk to them—with the Eufy Pet Camera, which is a top pick among the best smart pet cameras. It features a 70-degree wide-angle view with 1080p video resolution, and offers up to 16GB of local video storage, so you don’t have to pay for cloud storage to see what your pup has been up to. It also offers two-way audio, allowing you to hear if your dog has been barking and offering comforting words to calm them down, as well as a treat-tossing feature to reward good behavior.
4. For the dog with a sweet tooth: Pooch Creamery Ice Cream Mix
On an extra special day for your pooch, why not make them their very own delicious dessert? The Pooch Creamery Ice Cream Mix is specially made for dogs, and all you have to do is add water to the powdered mix and freeze it. In just a few hours, you’ll have dog-friendly ice cream that they’ll happily wolf down.
5. For the dog who loves dinnertime: Elevated Dog Bowl Stand
If your dog looks forward to dinner from the moment they finish breakfast, the GrooveThis Woodshop Personalized Elevated Dog Bowl Stand is the perfect gift for them. The stand comes in a variety of sizes and colors, and it includes two stainless steel bowls that can be easily cleaned in the dishwasher. The whole thing is crafted from durable wood, and you can have your dog’s name engraved into the front of the stand for a personalized touch. Plus, the top of the stand lifts off, revealing a hidden storage compartment where you can stash treats, toys and other dog essentials.
6. For the dog who likes variety: Sugarwish Dog Treats
How cute is this variety pack of Sugarwish Dog Treats? The gift box is available in a range of sizes, from mini to extra large, and you can pick and choose the treats that go inside it. There are more than 30 different options to pick from, including crunchy, chewy and training treats, and you can also select sweet doggy accessories, such as a bowtie or charm, to include in the box
7. For the dog who loves toys: Frisco Dog Toy Variety Pack
Why give your dog one toy when you could give them a whole bunch? The Frisco Jungle Pals Dog Toy Variety Pack includes six toys for your dog, including both plush and rope options. The toys are best for small- and medium-sized dogs, and the pack includes two jungle-themed plushies, two rope toys, a plush bone and a squeaky ball. Plus, the best part is that the set is much less expensive than buying all the toys individually.
8. For the dog who tends to wander: Personalized Leather Collar
If your dog likes to go for solo adventures around the neighborhood, you can ensure they always find their way back home with the PenFiveCrafts Personalized Leather Dog Collar. It comes in sizes XS to XXL to fit virtually any dog, and there are four different leather colors, as well. The collar also includes a “silent tag” that’s engraved with your dog’s name and your phone number, and it’s attached directly to the collar with durable studs.
9. For the dog who’s a frequent flier at the vet: Kong Club
Kong Club is another subscription box designed just for dogs, and you will be extremely impressed with the high-quality toys and treats. Each month, your dog will receive a box full of goodies from the well-known toy brand, but that’s not all! Your membership also includes one-on-one pet coaching, as well as 24/7 live messaging for when you have questions about behavior, nutrition and preventative care!
10. For the fashionable dog: The Foggy Dog Walk Set
Your dog will be the most stylish pooch in the neighborhood with The Foggy Dog Walk Set. The set includes a collar and leash, as well as a matching waste bag dispenser, and there are a wide range of colors and patterns to choose from.
