The role of dog parent is not always an easy job, but oh boy, is it entertaining. The random zoomies, the snugs, the pre-bathtime sass, the post-bath wiggles, the unique way each dog plays with their toys—you’d think your abs would form a six-pack with all the laughs dogs provide. That’s why, when you’re picking out Christmas gifts for dog lovers, you’d do best to look for something funny. That way, you know you’re speaking their language.
Dog parents understand the joy, the pain and the constant hilarity that occurs the moment we bring a new pup into our family. And since the holidays are all about celebrating family, it’s important that we celebrate each other, in all our dog-hair-covered glory. Here are some extraordinarily funny Christmas gifts for dog lovers they’re sure to get a kick out of.
