Gift of the month clubs aren’t just for humans—they’re for pets, too. One of the most popular gifts for dog lovers is Bark Box, which delivers a curated monthly box of goodies for pups right to their door. Each box has a theme, too, from “Slobber Party” to “Howl-O-Ween.” File this under gifts for dog lovers who can’t resist a fun little treat each month.
“This is my favorite thing to gift other pet owners,” says Affiliate Content Director, Nicole Doster. “Bark Box just has so many cute toys that are surprisingly durable and have become favorites for our dog. I especially love their food themed toys. We got a box that featured all classic ice cream treats…it’s so fun to watch Huey run around with a Choco Taco in his mouth!”

Sturdy, stainless and dishwasher-safe, Yeti’s dog bowl arrives built to last year after year. It’s a solid investment for doggie dining at home. Or, adventurous owners can take it to the trail while camping or fishing.
“If you’re looking to splurge a little on your beloved fur baby with a long-lasting, high-quality product, I absolutely recommend the Yeti Boomer Dog Bowl,” says Shopping Editor, Mary Henn. “It combines functionality with a visually-appealing design and you can even personalize it with your dog’s name or image. Best of all, my pup Henry loves his Yeti bowls—and what’s better than making your pets happy?”

Shopping Editor, Madi Koetting is always on the lookout for ways to add some mental enrichment to her pup’s feeding times.
“She scarfs down her food, and a game-like feeding toy is a fabulous way to prolong your dog’s feeding by incorporating some mental exercise,” she says. “This feeding toy from Fable has been the answer to all my problems (dog mom related, that is). Simply add their kibble inside and prepare to be entertained as you watch your dog wobble it all over the ground to get their food out. The toy boasts a range of easy to hard modes so pups don’t get bored. It takes my dog CeCe around 30 minutes to dispense all her food—talk about a smart way to incorporate play time into their feeding!”

Finding gifts for dog lovers that cater to puppies is somewhat of a challenge. Puppies are pretty rowdy, but they’re also still babies. Picking up a Snuggle Puppy for a new puppy parent is a thoughtful way to encourage them to sleep throughout the night.
“A fellow puppy mom introduced me to the Snuggle Puppy, and let me tell you, it’s a game-changer for a restful night’s sleep for you and your dog,” says Madi. “Complete with a heartbeat that reminds your pup of their mom and litter mates, the Snuggle Puppy is their best friend during their puppy phase. I turn the heartbeat on right before bed time (it stays on all night!), and my pup finds solace in this comforting sleep toy by resting her head on it every night.”

If they have a sense of humor, they’ll love this viral custom dog tee. It features photos of their furry friend surrounded by lightening—a truly stunning work of art for any proud pet parent.
“This by far is the BEST gift I’ve ever received,” says Nicole. “You can customize the shirts with your favorite photos of your pet along with its name. The shirts are suuuper soft, too. Once I put it on I never wanted to take it off.”

When it comes to gifts for dog lovers, it pays to go custom. Know a pet parent who can’t stop staring at their furry BFF? Snag your dog-obsessed pal a detailed wool mini-me lookalike that’s almost as darling as the real deal.
“Kateryna is so talented,” raves Nicole. “I worked with this Etsy shop owner to gift a handmade needle-felted replica of our dog to my partner one Christmas. After sending a few photos of our pup at different angles, she nailed his coloring and body type—down to the little details on his speckled belly! I thought it would just be used as an ornament, but it soon turned into one of our most treasured items that is on display all year long.”

Did you know that dogs curl up into a donut shape naturally to retain warmth? The Best Friends by Sheri Calming Donut Bed takes this a step further by adding butter-soft fur, a raised edge and a delightfully dense memory foam core. Bonus? The cover comes off for easy cleanup.
“The shag itself is soft, and I mean soft,” says former Deputy Affiliate eCommerce Editor, Megan Wood. “The raised border provides a sense of security and a place for my pup, Louie, to rest his head. He can also burrow down into the bed and hide his toys. (So that’s where he’s been hiding his rawhide!)”

While it’s pretty no-frills, adjustable harnesses meant to fit a range of sizes are such thoughtful gifts for dog lovers. No matter how big their pooch gets, the Blue-9 harness‘s six adjustment points ensures a snug fit without any pinching.
“My favorite thing about the Balance Harness is that it adjusts at every point, so it expands as your dog grows,” notes Mary. “My dog has worn the same harness since he was 4 to 6 months old, and now, a year later, he is fully grown, and the harness still fits! I think that also speaks to the quality of the harness. After all this time (and a quick cycle in the washing machine), the harness looks as good as new.”

This one may sound strange, but friends don’t let friends use bad poop bags. Stock up a friend’s pet supplies with poop bags that are better for the environment.
“After I saw a fellow pet owner struggling with defective bags, I gifted her a bulk supply of these Earth Rated dog bags,” says Nicole. “They make the least luxurious chore of owning a pet more stress-free as the bags are sturdy. After using them for years, I’ve never had any accidental rips or tears. Plus, they’re made of recycled material which is a bonus in my book.”
