For the Style Icon:
Tacti Luxe Dog Collar - Alpine Dog Co.
This entire collection of collars are stunning and a great gift for the large dog (or large dog owner) on your list. The combination of this dainty, feminine colour (shown here) coupled with a tactical clip gives an absolutely beautiful spin on a classic military style. They're triple sewn and tacked on 1050D nylon - that's the same grade used for rock climbing. The handle is located on the top right of the collar, and is for tactical/ working use or for immediate control over your dog in any situation. The Tacti Luxe range is adjustable and is offered in both 1.5 and 2 inch widths, and includes neoprene lining inside the collar and handle; providing an odourless, sweat resistant line of comfort that helps with chaffing and fur/skin sensitivities on the neck. The greatest part of these collars is that they are customizable with the most extensive font and colour combination for collars on the market. Available for dogs measuring from 15" - 26".
For the Secret Santa:
Need a gift for a dog/ dog lover who may be an acquaintance? Woof Concept has an array of products that all coincide with matching prints to fit most small-medium sized breeds. One that doesn't need measurements or personal information is the Seat Belt; it's an adorable, affordable and extremely practical gift that any owner would be happy to use. With a manual locking carabiner at one end and a belt clip on the other, your spoiled sidekick can window surf as much as he likes without worrying about him making a nose-dive decision.
For the Traveller:
Behold, the dog bowl that started it all - This dent-resistant stainless steel dog bowl is made for holding up to eight cups of kibble or water and as any dog owner who owns an Instagram account knows, comes with a cult following.
For the Dog Mom/ Dog Dad:
Pack Leader Hoodie - Alpine Dog Co.
Hoodies with your dog's photo on them are cute but let's be honest they can also be a little cheesy. Enter the Pack Leader Hoodie from Alpine Dog Co., a quality cotton blended pullover with an embroidered emblem on the front chest, and the letters PACK LEADER on the back sewn on as appliques that have your dog's photos printed right on them. This is such a modern spin on an old idea and it really caters to both men and women, making it the perfect gift for the dog owner who has it all. It also helps that you can gift this to someone without having to sneak around and get Fido's neck or chest size, and since you submit the ten photos you can send in whatever pictures you'd like! The turnaround time for these are about 2 weeks, so if you want to grab one you better hurry.
For the New Dog Owner:
These Canadian gift boxes can be given one-time or as a subscription, and they are filled with a variety of quality treats and toys. This is a great all-in-one option for any dog owner! They're great for heavy chewers and the site has a ton of positive reviews featuring dogs of all sizes.
For the Label Guru:
The OG of the dog chain; Big Dog Chains has an array of metals, links and sizes to suite any dog. These metal chains look just like human necklaces and are strong enough to last a lifetime. With engraving options and a lifetime sizing warranty these are really a beautiful option to gift your dog or an owner you love. Their design is so unique they were featured on The Dragon s Den!
For the "Practical Peter:"
TrueGrip Dog Leash Alpine Dog Co.
Don't need all of the glitz and glam? Here's an option that just makes sense. The TrueGrip Dog Leash comes with a spring clasp that is insanely easy to operate with one hand and equally as secure. The material these are made out of is buttery soft with rigid bumps throughout, eliminating leash burn from holding a pulling dog and allowing you to hold the leash securely at any point. These work with your hands or with gloves on, and that makes them ideal for the winter months. They come in 4 colours options and the black leashes come in 3 lengths ranging from 6 to 15ft.
For the last minute shopper:
Need a gift like, now? You can purchase a virtual gift card from Alpine Dog Co. and have it sent to your email immediately. Avoid the holiday crowd or the awkward explanation of where you gift is and print one out before you seal the card's envelope.
