Here are some of the best gifts for Christmas dogs, especially the big and huge ones. See presents for puppies and grand dogs, beds, girl & boy clothing, & chew toys.

Here are some of the best gifts for big dogs at Christmas. Big doggies, huge dogs, and fast growing vigorous puppies need practical presents like fleece dog beds, good warm clothes, and very tough chew toys.

Large Dogs

What should a dog lover buy for his or her big dog for Christmas? And, what should a dog-lover's lover or a dog-lover’s family buy for the pup? All the answers for large dog accessories and other goodies are online.

And, that’s a good thing because it’s a pain in the dog bone to go to the mall and fight the other pet parents for the best doggie toys and accoutrements. Really, there are many good sporting goods stores and pet stores on the internet, so check around for prices; however, one good place to start is Orvis.

Orvis

Orvis sells women’s clothes and all sorts of undogly things, but originally, Orvis was a fishing, hunting, and sporting goods store. The Orvis website has practical, macho, manly dog things for boy dogs and for sporty tomboy girl dogs. (Well the girl dogs may prefer their macho stuff in red or pink.)

Dog Beds

Orvis has dog beds for real dogs, those honking big puppies that don’t wear chintzy Chanel or phony Missoni dog outfits.

Ultimate Fleece Wraparound Bed: Orvis knows hunting dogs and what dogs like, so this dog bed is “the ultimate in luxury, comfort, and security”, and its practical cover is washable.
Beds for Old Dogs: The Orvis people love their dogs. Orvis and other sites have therapeutic beds, senior dog blankets, and other goodies to keep old dogs happy.
For other stores, google "hunting dog supplies" or "hunting dog beds"

Grand Dog

Here's a cool Christmas present:

Dog Proof Comforter: This is not for the dog bed; this is for the dog who sleeps with his or her owners. It protects dog moms and doggy daddies from dog accidents. It also protects the other bedding from claws, hair, and dirt. What? Dogs aren’t dirty, are they?

This is a lovely gift for one's grand dog, and a gift that the adult children will love as well. Tell the kids to bring it along when they haul the grand dog over for Christmastime.

Big Dog Clothes

Orvis dog clothes are practical not fou fou. This is not doggie fashion-show time, so don’t tell the puppy he’s wearing cute clothing. He just might have a doggy accident.

Fleece Dog Warmer: This fashionable fleece is extremely practical for hunting dogs that swim in cold water or for any big dog in a cold climate. It’s a very good looking boy dog sweater. And, in red, with a nice monogram, it’s very apropos for plus size girl dogs.
They, also, have other cute clothes for big dogs and big-to-be puppies.

Dog Collars

Personalized Buckle Collar and Lead: Orvis has functional collars which can be imprinted with the dog’s name and phone number. Wow. That’s a good idea. The collar and matching leash come in cute, sporty colors.

Dog Accessories

These are good gifts for dog lovers:

Seatbelt Dog Food and Water Bowls: These are fabulously green gifts, because they’re made from recycled seatbelts. Also, the containers are a true convenience, during the trip to the hunt or just over to the dog park, because the bowl folds up and the food carrier has a drawstring to keep the chow from spilling. What a clever idea.
Paw Plunger: This is a special cup for cleaning the puppy’s paws. All humans, who live without “help”, should get this for their significant other (their dog).

Dog Toys

While it's nice to have itsy bitsy little Santa toys and candy cane colored stuffed animals, big dogs and rambunctious puppies need burly chew toys.

Tough Chew Toys: These things are good for toy shredders. Check out the tug toy and the alligator, or the pink piggy for a large girl puppy.
Squirrel Toy: This would be really funny in a pup’s mouth, and so would the Rooster Squeak Toy.

These are cool Christmas presents for people who laugh at doggie fashion. Well, there are a lot of chic dogs who would be perfectly content to be warm on a cold day or to have their very own squeaky chicken.
