2017 Great Pyrenees Holiday Gift Guide

December 20, 2017 4 Comments

Still looking for a gift for your Great Pyrenees? Check out our 2017 Great Pyrenees holiday gift guide to find the perfect gift for your dog!

It’s time for our 2017 Great Pyrenees Holiday Gift Guide with all gifts targeted to our double-coated, giant floofs. If you’re still doing some holiday shopping (please tell me I’m not the only one), we’ve got you covered.

Still looking for a gift for your Great Pyrenees? Check out our 2017 Great Pyrenees holiday gift guide to find the perfect gift for your dog!

  1. The Green Pet Shop Cool Pet Pad: We have four, yes four, cooling mats. I even have one at work for Kiska which I take with me to meetings for her. For a breed that always seems to be hot, these are a must!
  2. Caru Daily Dish: Available in four flavors, these are a great topper (or full meal!) for your floof. The fluffies are loving the Lamb & Turkey and Beef recipes.
  3. Only Natural Pet Wholesome Homemade: These are another favorite topper of ours and great for picky eaters!
  4. Best Bully Sticks Candy Canes: Trade in those harmful rawhides for this festive twist! The candy cane shape makes it more challenging and last a bit longer.
  5. Only Natural Pet Pumpkin Spice Biscuits: For our PSL loving friends, pass the love onto your pups! The spicy cinnamon and pecans make this an extra festive treat.
  6. FreshWave Odor Removing Shampoo: Your dog might not like this gift as much, but this is one of my favorite shampoos. Super gentle and the smell is incredible – no overpowering perfume smell.
  7. Bravo Crazy Curly Chew: This gift is primarily with Kiska in mind (shh, don’t tell her!) because she is obsessed with curly bully sticks. The shape makes it more mentally stimulating, which we know these giant floofs need.
  8. Ollie Dog Food: The floofs go absolutely nuts for this fresh, customizable dog food. New dogs get 50% off their first box of meals!
  9. The Stuff Dog Conditioner: This is one of my tricks to get the fluffies’ coats silky and soft. A little goes a long way so this conditioning spray lasts a long time.
  10. Only Natural Pet RawNibs: These are my go-to training treat – every dog goes crazy for them! Spice up their stocking with these tantalizing treats.
  11. 4Knines Seat Cover: Every pyrent NEEDS a seat cover or cargo liner from 4Knines. We have one in each vehicle and I recommend them to everyone I know. They are the best quality I’ve found and last for years (we’ve had one for over three years and it is still in perfect condition).

 

Did you find anything to add to your holiday gift list? What is your dog getting for Christmas?

4 Gifts for Pets 2017

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 we’re doing this for pets, we’re going to substitute “something to read” for “something to eat”.

It's that time of year again! Time to celebrate our furry babies with the 4 Gifts for Pets Blog Hop. See what my Great Pyrenees want, need, wear, and eat this Christmas and enter to win some amazing prizes!

Something They Want – CleverPet Hub

Do you feel guilty every time you leave your dog alone for long periods of time? Try challenging your dog’s mind to some puzzles to keep him busy and out of trouble! I am beyond fascinated by the CleverPet Hub and am just dying for the fluffies to give it a try.

Something They Need – Drinkwell® Pagoda Pet Fountain

Three drooly, dirty dogs share water bowls in this house and believe me – they get gross. We have another PetSafe fountain that I absolutely love, but we need to replace the other water bowls around the house with these amazing fountains to keep the fluffies hydrated.

Something to Wear – Ruffwear Sun Shower™ Rain Jacket

Floofy dogs in the pacific northwest. Need I say more? Since Kiska goes to work with me every day, we have to do potty walks in the rain. I hate having a wet floof come back into the office with me, so a rain jacket is on her Christmas list this year.

Something to Eat – Only Natural Pet Green Beef Tripe RawNibs

If you need a high-value training treat, these green beef tripe nibs are the pyrfect choice. The fluffies know exactly what these are before I even open the bag!

Now, on to the giveaway! Enter below for your chance to win and don’t forget to swing by the other bloggers in the hop for even more entry opportunities!

We’re doing something fun this giveaway as a special to all of you amazing people who follow the fluffies on social media! Every day we’ll be sharing a daily bonus word or phrase on social media. Simply find the daily bonus and come back to this post to claim five extra entries. The bonus will be posted on a different site each day, so make sure you’re following It’s Dog or Nothing on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest!

2016 Great Pyrenees Holiday Gift Guide

December 19, 2016 5 Comments

Struggling with what to get your Great Pyrenees for Christmas? Here are 10 fluffy favorites!

2016 Great Pyrenees Holiday Gift Guide

Struggling with what to get your Great Pyrenees for Christmas this year? Maybe you just need a few stocking stuffers to round out the gifts. If you’re looking for ideas, here are 10 of our favorites (tested and approved by Mauja and Atka!).

  1. XXL Kong. You can never have enough Kongs around the house. We stuff Kongs with wet food and give them to the fluffies before we leave for work.
  2. Jones Natural Chews Windees. If you’ve been here for awhile, you’ve more than likely heard us talk about Windees. Not going to lie, they’re pretty gross (especially as a vegetarian), but the fluffies go nuts for them.
  3. The Green Pet Shop Cooling Pad. We have two of these and absolutely love them. They don’t have to be frozen or connected to electricity – the cooling pads chill themselves. We always have at least one in the SUV for road trips
  4. Bully sticks. Another fluffy favorite. We seem to find the best deals and quality bully sticks from Best Bully Sticks. Plus, they have many other chews and treats as well!
  5. Fruitables Vanilla Snowflake Treats. Okay, I just think these are the coolest things ever. These crunchy treats are made with REAL SNOWFLAKES. Yes. You read that right. Mauja and Atka don’t care about the snowflakes, but the marketing definitely works on me 😉
  6. Reliq Lavender Shampoo. Bath time seems to be a love or hate situation. Regardless of how your fluffy feels about baths, this lavender scented shampoo will provide a relaxing experience (psst… use code “ITSDOGORNOTHING” for 30% off your Reliq order)
  7. Oster Grooming Rake. Keep the coat looking wonderful and functioning properly with a high-quality grooming rake. We’ve tested several over the years and have yet to find one we like more than this!
  8. Freedom Harness. This no-pull harness is great because it clips on the back (rather than the front like most no-pull harnesses). The material is durable and long-lasting.
  9. Bowtie. Everyone should have a special outfit for the Christmas festivities, right? These bowties from BrooklynBowtied are absolutely adorable! I’m pretty sure Atka needs one 😉
  10. Big Barker Bed. If your pyr will actually use a bed rather than sleep on the hard floor, a Big Barker bed is a great choice. While it’s a pricey bed, you can’t beat the quality of the bed itself.

What will you be getting your dog for Christmas?

A Pyrenean Christmas

December 16, 2015 6 Comments

Facebook has been full of Christmas themed photos recently, but I’ve been particularly drawn to the Great Pyrenees ones (obviously!). I decided to ask people to share their photos so I could create a blog post of Christmas pyrs. I received a TON of amazing photos – too many to put in a single post – so I created a few collages of the photos. So here it is, a Pyrenean Christmas <3 If you’d like to see the photos in full size, you can head to this Facebook album!

A quick note about the photos – The size/placement of each image is not indicative of my fondness of the photo. Making collages is HARD so I did the best I could 😉

2015 Holiday Gift Guide for Dogs

December 15, 2015 1 Comment

Last week we shared the Ultimate Great Pyrenees Lover Gift Guide to get in the holiday spirit. If anyone is still looking for gifts for me (ahem, Nick), anything off that list will do 😉 Now, it wouldn’t be fair if I didn’t make a gift guide for the pups, too!

Mauja and Atka get stuffed stockings on Christmas and we always have a blast watching them tear through the wrapping paper. I’ll have to find the video of Atka on his first Christmas – talk about adorable! Even though we came up with our 4 gifts for Mauja and Atka already, I wanted to share some variety for those that might not have found something they would like on that list!

The 2015 Holiday Gift Guide for Dogs

The 2015 Holiday Gift Guide for Dogs

Tug-A-Mals Monkey
The Tug-A-Mals toys are Atka’s absolute favorite! The center is a giant, squeaky ball that can still be played with once the outside is shredded. He will run around the backyard squeak-squeaking away with the ball. It’s absolutely adorable. Plus if you say, “where’s your ball?”, he runs and grabs it.

Kong Classic
I know I talk about these all the time, but it’s because I truly think they’re amazing. Kongs are so versatile and great for keeping your pup busy. Put your dog’s favorite snacks inside and freeze for a long-lasting toy! Mauja and Atka like frozen wet food in their Kongs.

Mega Cow Tails
I’m not going to lie – the suckers smell. I’d suggest lighting a candle when breaking out these chews. However, they are one of our longer lasting chews and the fluffies go crazy for them.

Green Beef Tripe Niblets
These are my go-to high-value training treat. Once again, they smell, but when we’re working in highly stimulating environments, I need something that really gets their attention. These always do the trick.

Fruitables Vanilla Snowflakes
These definitely excite me much more than the pups, but I’m not ashamed to admit it. Guys, these are made with REAL SNOWFLAKES. Could there be a more awesome treat?!

Customized Blanket
Our friend made Atka an adorable blanket two years ago for Christmas. He was just a baby then and loved his blanket; he still sleeps on it every single day. This blanket is really cool because you can customize it! (Pst… use code “FLUFFY20” for 20% off your order)

Holiday Keepsake Tin
I am absolutely in love with these tins. One Dog Organic Bakery has the best mission and creates amazing, healthy products for our pups. You can choose the treat flavors you’d like in your tin to make sure it’s something your dog would like. The treats also smell AMAZING. I was tempted to sample…

Jumbo Bully Sticks
Best Bully Sticks offers a wide variety of sizes of bully sticks so you can find one that will last for your dog. Mauja and Atka are particularly fond of the 6″ Jumbo bully sticks, but I’m sure they would prefer even larger ones!

That wraps up It’s Dog or Nothing’s Holiday Gift Guide for Dogs! What’s on your dog’s list this year?

4 Gifts for Pets

December 9, 2015 3 Comments

4 Gifts for Pets Blog Hop - 1 thing they want, 1 thing they need, 1 thing they wear, 1 thing they eat.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

Best Bully Sticks Bully CaneThese 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

Green Pet Shop - Cool Pet PadThis 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

4 Gifts for Pets Blog Hop Dog ID TagsBadTags 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

999296_300The 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.

Ultimate Great Pyrenees Lover Gift Guide

December 8, 2015 Leave a Comment

I can’t believe Christmas is almost here. I feel like I don’t remember anything between the months of July and November. Anyone else feel that way?

Since I always get a late start on Christmas shopping (and I can’t be the only one!), I made this Great Pyrenees Lover Gift Guide to simplify shopping. Email it to your spouse, family, and friends as a *hint hint* for your Christmas gifts!

The Ultimate Great Pyrenees Lover Gift Guide for the pyr lover in your life (or yourself!)

Great Pyrenees Lover Gift Guide Items:

  1. I Love My Great Pyrenees Phone Cover – Zazzle. Pretty sure I need this adorable case! I’ve been looking for a personalized one as well 🙂
  2. Great Pyrenees Bottle Stopper – Amazon. Are you a wine lover? If you ever don’t finish a bottle (does anyone really do that?), then you need this adorable stopper!
  3. Great Pyrenees Ornament – SerendipitiniPet on Etsy. OMG ADORBS. My husband thinks in a few years our Christmas tree will only be pyr ornaments 😉
  4. Great Pyrenees 2016 Calendar – Amazon. I get a new Great Pyrenees calendar every. single. year. and I love it so much.
  5. Great Pyrenees Home Pillow – Righteous Hound. I’ve been eyeing this pillow for awhile (hint hint Nick) 😉
  6. “I Hug My Great Pyrenees So I Don’t Choke People” Tee – SunFrog. Can anyone else relate? Plus, they’re just so huggable!
  7. “It’s Not a Home Without a Great Pyrenees” Wood Sign – Amazon. Or two, or three. or… 😉
  8. Great Pyrenees Photo on wood pieces – Outer Barks. I think this picture is just stunning. I also love how it shows a couple of a pyr’s key traits.
  9. Crazy Great Pyrenees Lady Tee – SunFrog. Could there be a more pyrfect tee? Dog hair included! 😉
  10. Great Pyrenees Portrait – TheDogLover, Etsy. Stunning, stunning, stunning. A pyr’s personality captured in a drawing <3
  11. “Home is Where My Pyrenees Is” Sign – pigknit, Etsy. I’ve contemplated getting a “Home is Where the Air Force Sends Us” sign, but I feel this is much more appropriate!
  12. Great Pyrenees Etched Wine Glasses – Amazon. Another gift for the wine lover or anyone who just likes to drink out of fancy glasses!
  13. Great Pyrenees Messenger Bag – Painted Pooches, Etsy. Show your love of pyrs wherever you go with this adorable messenger bag!
  14. “Pyr Mom” Decal – Amazon. I’m not the biggest fan of car decals, but I could totally see myself sporting this one!
  15. Great Pyrenees Mug – GreatPyreneesRescue, Etsy. A way to enjoy pyrs while sipping your morning coffee (other than the obvious pyr fur in your coffee). Plus, these benefit a Great Pyrenees rescue!
  16. Great Pyrenees Zombie Slayer Bowl – Zazzle. Although, I have talked about why we’d never survive the zombie apocalypse.

I think I’m going to send this to my husband and hopefully receive a few items from this list! What item would you love to have from Great Pyrenees Lover Gift Guide? Any other items us pyr lovers need?affiliate disclosure
