Gift Guide For Dogs

For the dog who loves to chase things: Treat your pup to a 3-pack of KONG AirDog Squeakair Tennis Balls or Chuck It! Fetch Medley for endless hours of fetching fun. Both products are designed to last and hold up to any dog who loves to chew. Use them with the Petsafe Automatic Ball Launcher, which offers multiple angle and distance settings for a fun day in the backyard.

For the dog who loves to cuddle: Quiet days at home on the couch call for a best pal to hug. The Duckworth and Lambchop squeak toys from Multipet are a favorite with our dog customers. Soft and perfect for hugs, your dogs will want to take them anywhere.

For the dog who loves games: Puzzle games keep a dog’s mind sharp and help improve eye-paw coordination. Outward Hound’s Hide-A-Squirrel Ginormous puzzle is perfect for dogs who enjoy games and soft toys. If you want a puzzle that also rewards your dog, Nina Ottosson’s Wobble Bowl Puzzle is a fun and challenging way for your pet to earn his treats. When they are ready for a challenge, you can upgrade to the Outward Hound Nina Ottosson Dog Worker Puzzle.

For the dog who loves to hunt: KONG’s line of Wild Low-Stuff toys resemble prey animals. Choose from mallards, foxes, rabbits, and more! Each squeak toy is soft and dense, and light on the stuffing for a realistic floppy feeling. These toys are perfect for indulging your dog’s hunting instincts.

For the dog who loves the squeak: Most toys in our stores feature squeakers, but these two are quite popular with our four-footed customers. The goDog Dinos Frills Squeaky Plush Toy and the Outward Hound Hedgehog make joyful noises designed to keep your dogs entertained.

For the dog who loves treats: The best games come with a little snack at the end. Dogs who know this will love the roll and flip action of the KONG Gyro Treat Dispensing Toy and the random dispensing action of the KONG Rewards Shell. Dogs enjoy chasing these toys around the floor as they try to move the treats closer to release! If your dog tends to eat too quickly at mealtime, consider adding an Injoya Snuffle Mat for slow feeding. The Shark and Pizza mats are colorful and filled with little nooks and folds for your dog to sniff to find food.

For the dog who loves to tug: Tug toys help divert your dog from chewing and tugging on things not meant for play. Test your pup’s canine strength on any of our selection of KONG Wubba Friends Plush Dog Toys or the KONG Zoo Wubba tugger. Dogs with a strong bite enjoy playing with the SnugARooz Spikey Beast while at the park or in the backyard.

Gift Guide for Cats

For the cat who loves to leap and pounce: Cats who get the “zoomies” love the stimulation, so why not encourage their zest for play? The colorful Cat Charmer wand, the fish and mouth-tipped KONG Laser Teaser wands, the enchanting KONG Laser encourage exercise with the chase, while the stationary Petstages Catnip Chaser Toy teases your cat’s favorite treat.

For the cat who loves to hide and seek: When your cat is feeling aloof, the KONG PlaySpaces Camper and Smile Paws Coffee Shop Scratcher House are places they will enjoy for solitude. The SmartyKat Instincts Twinkle Tunnel Light Tunnel Cat Toy also provides a place to hide with stimulation. 

For the cat who loves catnip: What cat doesn’t love catnip? Buy a tub of YEOWW for filling all your cat’s nip pouches, and pick up a few School of Stinkies Toys for the stocking. These will definitely keep your cat happy all holiday season.

For the cat who loves treats: If food is your cat’s friend, get them the Catit Pixi Treat Dispenser or the Catit Senses 2.0 Digger. Both toys challenge your cat to manipulate the dispenser in order to claim their reward. Both help with paw coordination and patience.
