Compare them side by side

Picking a holiday toy

Match the toy to how your pet plays. Plush squeakers suit gentle chewers, while snuffle mats and treat balls give dogs something to work on during a busy day. Check the size against your dog, and pick sturdier toys for strong chewers.

Holiday sweaters

Measure your dog's chest and back length and compare them to the size guide. Try the sweater on for a few minutes first, and take it off if your dog seems uncomfortable.

Keeping the holidays pet-safe

Put away ribbon, tinsel and wrapping once gifts are open, since pets can swallow them. Keep toys and treats wrapped for pets out of reach until it's time to open them, as curious noses find them fast.

Questions

What's a good Christmas gift for a dog?

A new holiday plush toy, a snuffle mat to sniff out treats, or a cozy sweater for cold walks.

What's a good Christmas gift for a cat?

A set of catnip toys or a wand toy. Many cats enjoy the empty boxes just as much.

When should I order for Christmas?

By early December. Custom ornaments and portraits take longer, since they're made to order.
