CHRISTMAS GIFT IDEAS FOR DOG LOVERS AND YOUR FOUR-LEGGED FRIENDS
We love nothing more than spoiling the ones we love at Christmas, but paws up, who needs a little help ticking some names off the Christmas present list? Whether you’re looking for Christmas gift ideas for dogs or a dog lover, we’re here to help. We’ve sniffed out the best planet friendly and natural presents – there’s an idea for everyone, even the most tricky-to-buy-for pet parents and fussy pups on the list.
FOR OUR FOUR-LEGGED FRIENDS
Planet friendly play
Every dog’s a playful pup at heart. With that in mind, say ‘bonjour’ to Monsieur Bauble, Rudy the Reindeer and Bruce the Spruce – Green & Wild’s festive range of dog toys. Made from hard-wearing 100% biodegradable, sustainable jute and wrapped in by-product soft suede – a fabric that would otherwise have gone to waste. This eco-friendly gift for your dog will guarantee hours of throwing, tugging and plenty of fun.
Prices start at £6.45.
Gift your dog a groom
What better way to spoil your dog after muddy Christmas walkies than to freshen them up with a groom? WildWash’s Christmas Day Pamper Set includes, amongst other natural products, paw and nose balms, shampoo and cleanser, all packaged in a natural cotton gift bag. Made with botanicals and essential oils and containing no nasties. Plus, WildWash’s packaging is made with post-consumer recycled plastic.
Christmas Day Pamper set £84.95.
Treat your dog, the healthy way
Every day is a day for treats, but even more so at Christmas. The ideal stocking filler for dogs over 4 months old, our Naturally Meaty Treats, not only taste good, but they’re healthy too.
Gift your dog Butcher’s treats this Christmas and choose from three recipes to suit your dog’s needs. Joints & Coat for supple joints and a shiny coat; Simply Gentle for dogs with sensitive stomachs; and Lean & Tasty with 20% lower fat than our other treats. Full of natural ingredients in recyclable packaging. (Treats film recyclable at soft plastic recycling points).

Keep paws clean
For extra help keeping paws clean, try Little Soap Company’s Little Beast range. Their Organic Pet Trio Pack contains shampoos and spritz that are made from coffee granules to naturally help keep fleas at bay, and apricot kernels to condition coats. Free from nasties, plant based and cruelty free too. Check out the full Little Beast range here for some more fresh ‘n’ clean Christmas gift ideas for dogs.
Trio pack £26.50.
Cosy up this Christmas
After all the festive fun, your four-legged friend needs somewhere cosy for their Christmas day nap. Treat your dog to the gift of a comfy, eco-friendly bed from Scruffs. The fleece cover and fibre fill are both 100% recyclable and it’s washable at 30 degrees, helping you to reduce your carbon pawprint while keeping your pup comfy.
Prices start at £29.99.
A nourishing bowlful
For your dog, there’s nothing better than our original Tripe recipe for their Christmas dinner, served in a new bamboo bowl.
Personalise the bowl with your dog’s name for a ‘paw-some’, eco-friendly present this year. We especially like this gift for older dogs as it works as a raised bowl, making it easier for them to reach their nourishing Butcher’s bowlful.
Personalised bamboo dog bowl £22.95.
Stay warm after walkies
Handmade in Britain with sustainable bamboo, a NASH drying coat will be at the top of your dog’s list for staying dry and cosy after winter walkies. We think it’ll be at the top of your list too as it’ll keep the house and car protected from wet dog shakes!
Available in four colours and with a size for every breed, it’s a paws up from us! It can even be personalised for your dog for an additional cost, perfect for if you have a few furry friends in your pack.
Prices start at £50.00.
FOR ‘HOO-MANS’
Cuddles by candlelight
Fill the house with the smell of fig, fir, rose and musk this Christmas with a pet-friendly candle set. The paraffin wax and artificial fragrances used in some scented candles can be harmful to a dog’s sensitive nose. This set from Wild For Dogs is made with 100% natural soy wax, with a cotton wick – free from harmful phthalate fragrances. It comes in eco-friendly packaging too. The ‘paw-fect’ gift for dog lovers.
£32 for candle duo. Single candles available for £18.50.
Scrub up after walkies
Extra muddy walkies mean it’s not just your four-legged friend who needs to freshen up. ‘Hoo-mans’ can scrub up with an organic soap set from Little Soap Company, too.
With natural fragrances from pure essential oils, including lavender and rose geranium, these soaps are plant based and cruelty free. They contain no nasties, are plastic free and the packaging is beautiful, biodegradable and eco-friendly. What more could the dog lover in your life ask for?
Set of 4 110g bars of soap £16.
Wellies for winter walkies
British, sustainable and handmade with 100% natural rubber, Evercreatures wellies will get a big paws up from any pet parent. Keeping your feet dry whatever the weather, dog lovers can get out with their four-legged friends to enjoy long winter walkies.
Plus, Evercreatures wellies are available in bright colours with fun designs and sizes to fit all the family.
Prices start at £22.00.
