    Default Christmas Gifts for your Furry One?

    Your dog, not your spouse.

    Are you getting your pet something for Christmas? If so, what?

    None for me - except I guess I could count that they get an in home pet sitter instead of having to go to the kennel.
    I figure that saving them from death row in the shelter pretty much covers me for the rest of their lives. LOL.

    We probably won't be getting anything for our two this year. Maybe I'll make them a cake or some treats though. We aren't even getting each other gifts, so I figure that's fair enough

    Santa will likely leave an antler and a jar of peanut butter in Cash's stocking. That's about it for this year, though.

    We don't exchange gifts (except we do bring a gift for each of my family members when we go to visit), but we do not really believe in exchanging gifts, in general. However, the dogs get new things on a regular basis anyway.

    They will probably enjoy ripping up the wrapping paper at my parents' house, though!
    My Mom will probably get them some gifts. Sometimes she makes big "milk biscuit" type bones and she puts their names on them with frosting and decorates them with frosting holly. LOL.

    We really need collars here so they will be getting new ones (if the car does not require more $$$$ - grr) The dogs have stockings and get treats in them. There are usually good sales at this time of year, so I take advantage.

    A donation to Best Friends Society made in Cole's name I told my husband that was what I wanted too and that's what he's getting. They have donors that are matching every donation received

    best idea, ever! I will send in a donation from each of the dogs to their favorite rescue. My family is also "getting" donations to Oxfam in their names (you can choose to donate books, seeds, irrigation, etc.). For their token gifts, I'm getting my brothers personalized Jones Sodas (you can get personalized labels on a flavor of soda you choose through Jones).

    Xena is the lucky furkid this year. She has no cartilage in her left shoulder, and although she's the toughest dog I've ever met, she hurts some days. I'm trying to avoid NSAIDS until she's older, so she's getting one of these... http://www.backontrackproducts.com/D...-Blankets-c22/

    I've used their products for years on horses, and know a handful of people that swear by their back on track shirts, socks, back braces, etc. So, while a swissy really doesn't need a blanket, if the mesh sheet helps her, she can be well dressed year around. I also ordered sock from them for my diabetic father. I'm sure he'd be thrilled to know I value him as much as one of my dogs - giggle!

    Abby is getting two new Freedom No Pull Harnesses from Wiggles, Wags and Whiskers. One in Purple, one in Teal. She already has one in Raspberry that is over a year and looking a little dirty. She's also getting the Rose collar from 2Hounds Design and a bunch of toys. She is utterly spoiled.

    Treats and a toy or two. And I won't threaten to put them up on "the site" until January. I'm a giver.

    That's a great idea!

    Zoey got her present early...new wood floor in the upstairs, thanks to what she did to the brand new carpet that it's replacing.
