We all know the festive season can sneak up on us — one minute it’s summer, the next your calendar’s packed, your wallet’s stretched, and your dog's looking at you like “Where’s my Christmas present?”
That’s why smart dog parents are already getting a head start on sniffing out the best Christmas gifts for their pups.
Here’s why early shopping for your dog’s Christmas presents is the way to go in 2025.
1. The Best Gifts Sell Out Fast
When it comes to dog Christmas gifts, the most tail-wagging toys, treats and boxes don’t stick around for long. Limited-edition goodies — like festive treat boxes or personalised toys — often sell out well before December.
By shopping early, you’ll have first dibs on:
Dog Advent Calendars (always the first to sell out)
Dog Christmas Boxes (these sell out yearly)
All-natural Treat Boxes (a big hit all year round)
Beat the rush and secure the best gifts before they’re gone!
2. Spread the Cost and Reduce the Stress
Let’s face it — the festive season can be ruff on your bank account. Shopping early means you can spread out your spend over a few months, instead of being hit with a sleigh-full of costs in December.
Plus, it gives you time to really think about what your dog would love (instead of panic buying a tennis ball on Christmas Eve).
3. More Time for Personalisation
Many of the best Christmas dog presents can be personalised — from engraved name tags and custom dog bowls to personalised Christmas boxes packed with treats and toys.
Ordering early means:
⏳ No rushed production times
🚚 Guaranteed delivery before Christmas
✨ Time to add extra-special touches
And if you’re gifting a dog-loving friend? Even better. You’ll avoid last-minute delays and ensure your gift feels thoughtful, not rushed.
4. Enjoy the Build-Up with Your Pup
Dogs might not know the date, but they can feel the excitement! Shopping early lets you build up to Christmas with:
📆 Advent calendars filled with tasty treats
🎁 A festive Christmas Eve box with a new toy or treat for Xmas Eve
📸 Christmas photoshoots with your pup (perfect for cards or Instagram!)
The earlier you start, the more festive fun you’ll have together.
5. Make Sure Your Pup Doesn’t Miss Out
Dogs are part of the family — and they deserve to feel the love at Christmas too. From opening their own gifts under the tree to joining in with family traditions, it’s all part of making memories.
By planning ahead, you can make their Christmas feel just as magical as yours.
