Dog Lover Gift Ideas

 Following are a few Dog Lover Gift Ideas to jump-start your shopping:

Many Dog Lovers like to accessorize their pets in style! Check out colorful "Pet Wear" for that prized pooch. Favorite articles include Elastic Neck Ruffs and Bandana-syle Skollars which slide over the collar, eliminating messy strings and velcro. One talented artisan selling these items is Pammer's Pet Wear.

Another great Dog Lover Gift Idea is Embroidered Collars and Leashes. These are terrific items. This is a opportunity to purchase a personalized gift at a relatively low cost. And, if you chose to add a phone number to Spot's name, the collar and/or leash may be a life-saver one day should Spot gets lost!

Dog Treats are always in demand and welcomed as a gift by any Dog Lover. Try searching for either "Holistic" and/or "Organic" Dog Treats to find the very best products. The word "Natural" has been a bit over-used in advertising and is therefore not a premium search word. One last note: When you purchase Organic Treats, you buy not only a top-quality gift item, but you also help Organic Producers!

For a truly luxurious Dog Lover Gift, try a New Zealand Sheepskin Rug! These rugs are made from natural sheepskin, and are even machine washable. They are incredibly soft, and make much nicer resting places for dogs than synthetic rugs and pads. Some of the best rugs come straight from New Zealand to you -- from www.outofnz.com.

Always appreciated by the Dog Lover is a Gift of Dog Art. Try a Limited Edition Dog Art Print as a very special gift. As Limited Edition Prints are signed and numbered by the artist, they have inherent value, but tend to cost much less than original works of art. A wide variety of Dog Breed Art Prints are available. Try entering "Dog Breed Art Print" into your favorite search engine and add a specific Dog Breed to the search criteria.

Here is an idea for Doberman Pinscher Dog Lovers: Special Needs Dobermans holds frequent auctions of Doberman-Related items. (www.doberman911.org/auctions/currentauctions.html) You can bid on and win a special gift AND contribute to the needs of some truely special Dobers!

Also, for the special Greyhound Dog Lover in your life, try visiting the Houston GPA (Greyhound Pets of America) website -- www.gpahouston.org. They have a large Gift Shop stocked full of Greyhound related gifts!
