It’s the holidays! And with thousands upon thousands of gifts and gadgets for dogs and dog lovers, finding the perfect, unique gift can be, well, less than merry.

That’s why we’ve searched and scoured, tested and tried, sampled and tested to bring you our 2013 Holiday Gift Guide!

Here they are, in no particular order, our favorite holiday gifts for dogs and dog lovers:

PetSafe Train & Praise Treat Dispenser:

Trainnpraise

Teach your pet remotely with treats! With the PetSafe Train & Praise, the handheld remote control activates the treat dispenser from up to 25 feet away, so good behavior can immediately be rewarded. Use it to keep your pet away from the door when a visitor arrives, to reward your pet for not barking, and for many other training purposes.

If you’re potty training your dog, don’t miss the Train & Praise Potty Training System. As your dog urinates on the replaceable pee pad, the moisture alerts an internal sensor in the pad which transmits to the treat dispenser. The treat dispenser then releases a treat, rewarding your dog for using the pee pad. This PAWsome system lets you continue your dog’s house training even when you aren’t home!

The Soggy Doggy Super Shammy is the ultimate dog drying towel. But it’s so much more than that. Made from ultra-soft, super-absorbent, plush microfiber chenille, in either beige, blue, or chocolate brown, the Shammy is so much more than a standard drying towel.

It’s the ultimate “gotta-have-it” gift for dogs that love to be wet and/or muddy, or for the pet parent that bathes their own babies.

    I’m not sure why but this blog is loading very slow for me.

    Is anyone else having this problem or is it a
    issue on my end? I’ll check back later and see if the problem still exists.

    Really great gift choices! I am considering several of them for my own household! I can say firsthand, as a lifelong dog parent that it isn’t always easy to find quality products for pets & pet lovers. This list however, is fantastic! I love the spa kit with the candle, (maybe Santa is reading this)& I have the Soggy Doggy super shammy towel… Best $$ I have ever spent on a pet item! It didn’t look big enough to dry my XXL dogs but it works great! I can’t wait to get the mats for inside of the doors, as well as for underneath my drooling Mastiff’s water bowls! 😉

    Thanks for sharing this list, there are some great ideas here! I especially love the PetSafe Train and Praise Treat dispenser, as well as the Kong On/Off Squeaker Bone! The puppies destroy toys so quickly that the Kong toys are great and longer-lasting, and now having the optional squeaker is such a cool idea!

    I LOVE the idea of the Motorola Scout as I have two aging dogs, one of whom is epileptic and has a bum knee. If anyone has used one of these, or something similar, I’d love to hear what you liked or didn’t like about it and how your dog responded if you spoke to them thru an app.
