Of course, you don't need a special occasion to buy a gift for your Pug dog; he or she is deserving of gifts all year round! However, at Christmas, Valentines's Day or on birthdays, this is a reminder that your Pug would be very happy to receive some new toys and other special things.
Face it, dogs have very few possessions, so what they do have they tend to really love and appreciate. But, toys can wear down or Pugs can lose their enthusiasm for things when they get old. Receiving a new gift can lift a dog's spirits and at the same time, help their humans feel great about being the giver.
In regard to the Christmas holidays and for birthdays, most owners include and recognize their pets. Polls show that 63% of owners buy their dog at least one present for these special days. For Christmas, 40% of owners buy a small collection of goodies (both toys and treats) to fill up a holiday stocking.
And what can really make a day special, is to buy or bake a cake for your Pug; there's some great pumpkin cake recipes that you can use to make a healthy dessert for your puppy or dog (including frosting!).
One of the best elements about finding great gifts for your Pug, is that most serve a legitimate purpose. Whether it's to help keep your dog happy when they're home alone... or to offer better toys to stay busy... or to help with teething, these selected items offer both the benefit of making your Pug happy as well as being beneficial in other ways.
So, let's get started and see some great gift ideas for your own Pug or for a special dog that you know.
