I’m sure if you have kids (or know anyone that does), you’ve heard of the 4 gifts approach to Christmas. It goes as follows:
Something they want
Something they need
Something to wear
Something to read
Since this is being done for pets rather than for children, “read” can easily be swapped with “eat”, if you’d prefer! I know Atka (AKA Mr. Paper Shredder) would ruin any lovely book 😉 Here’s the gifts I would give Mauja and Atka if following the “4 gifts” approach.
Something They Want – Bully Canes
These Bully Canes from Best Bully Sticks are between 28-36″ in length so they are recommended for large dogs and aggressive chewers. Mauja and Atka LOVE bully sticks, so I know they would want this treat. The question is – will it slow them down?
Something They Need – Cooling Pad
This Cooling Pad from the Green Pet Shop is fantastic. We received one to review a few months ago, but we have two dogs! Mauja and Atka do a good job of rotating, but they really need another one!
Something To Wear – ID Tags
BadTags on Etsy has an amazing selection of ID tags with tons of fun sayings! Mauja and Atka’s current tags are pretty boring, so it’d be fun to spice it up! These four are current contenders. Can you guess who would get each?
Something To Eat – PowerStew
The Only Natural Pet PowerStew has become a fluffy favorite. The chunks of meat make it ultra-appetizing as a topper, but it’s also great for mental stimulation by stuffing in a Kong and freezing.
If you were
to follow the 4 Gifts for Pets approach, what would be on your pet’s Christmas list this year? Make sure to visit the other blogs in the hop and see what’s on their lists!
We are sticking with the wants this year.
My Chewy wants to try the bully canes and Delia is drooling over the stew, so I better get to checking them out! Thanks for sharing!
Love your gift idea, especially those super cute dog tags!
