At Family Vacay we LOVE dogs, and always include them on our holiday shopping lists. If you are looking for unique gift ideas for dog lovers, or the dogs themselves, then we have great ideas to make some tails wag.

(1) Custom Dog Socks. Looking for a fun and memorable gift for dog lovers? Then these custom dog socks from DivvyUp might the perfect choice. Last year I gave all my family these socks. It was so fun to watch them unwrap the present and laugh when they saw their pet’s face on a pair of socks. DivvyUp has a selection of colors and options and makes the design of these personalized gifts so easy. For one pet face it’s only $24, $30 for two, and then $36 for three pet faces. Happy designing!
(3) Bark Box Subscription. This is the gift that keeps on giving. You can select from a one-time customized box ($35) or up to a 12-month subscription ($276). No need to wrap anything as the boxes are shipped directly to the recipient. With so many so many theme choices a BarkBox Subscription will make any dog (and their owner) happy.
(4) Playful Doormat. Welcome mats are not only functional, but they also add a little character to every home. So, help add a little personality to a someone’s home this season. The featured doormat is from Maverick Creation and can be found on Etsy. There is also a huge selection of other fun dog-themed mats available on Etsy, but we loved the clean and simplistic design of this one.
(4) Dog DNA Kit. For anyone (like me) that has rescue pups – it might not be obvious what the dominant breeds are based on their appearance. Or some owners might be curious to know a little bit more about the characteristics and genetic traits of their furry family members. Gifting your friends and family with a Wisdom Panel Dog DNA Kit will make you a gifting superhero. I’ve used this with all my dogs and highly recommend. The sample is super easy to collect, and the results are sent within a couple of weeks.
(5) Portable Water Bottle. For anyone that travels or does a lot of outdoor activities with their dog a portable water bottle is an ideal gift choice. This is something that someone might not think to buy on their own but is so appreciated when received. This design from Tuff Pupper is convenient, easy-to-use, and dishwasher safe.
(6) Holiday-themed Goody Box. The Goody Boxes from Chewy are priced great at $24.99, and you can select a box based on the size of the dog. The pups in your life will be so happy to receive a box of fun holiday-themed toys and treats to enjoy this season.
(7) Themed Dog Toys. Haute Diggity Dog has some very creative toys. Whether it’s the owner’s favorite beverage, fashion brand, or cocktail – there’s a theme for everyone. You’ll be guaranteed to make the people and their pets happy this Christmas.
8) Dog Puzzle. Humans tend to give puzzles and board games at Christmas, so why not include dogs in this gifting theme. Dog puzzles give pups something to do as the weather gets colder, and we spend more time indoors. They keep them out of trouble by keeping their minds stimulated. Below are links to 3 different options, that all are available on Amazon.
