Christmas gift ideas for Clinton?

[Boxer gal]

Yes, we buy our fur babies Christmas presents and wrap them up!!
They really do get excited and nose and paw at the wrappings!!

I don't have any ideas for this year, other than the usual treats.
Clinton is now 2 1/2 and loves his Kong, Cuz'es, Jollyball, Nylabone and Hide-a-squirrel.

Is there something NEW out there that I need to know about or some old treasure that I've missed????

Please help all us Boxer shoppers with your ideas for Christmas presents!! Clinton says he's been VERY GOOD this year so he deserves a lot!!!

Of course presents are bought and wrapped!!!!

Maggie will be getting a new bed - a 'double donut'. Terribly expensive but she is worth it. Also a new collar and leash. Then there are the organic treats -buffalo, ostrich, wild salmon and of course, new toys. I just bought her a great pull toy (and other things) so the search is on. Maybe a new tag (with her name engraved on it) for the new collar. She has her own pillow on the couch but it is looking very tattered so I think I will have to replace it. I recently found a dog magazine which has oodles of ads - so much shopping so little time!!

I know where you're at with the shopping! We do the same with buying gifts and wrapping them for our babies! I'm at a loss too.... but I'm keeping in mind that they'd never complain about a new Kong or tennis ball! They could have 20; and I'm sure they'd figure a way to store them all in their cheeks! If I think of something, I'll let you know! I'm working on it!

We wrap presents too, the dogs even have their own stockings with their names on them!

My pups have all the toys I can think of. Everytime I go to the store, I look at the toys and they already have all of them. Not sure what to do. They don't need anymore kongs as we have 9 or 10 of them floating around here. The have tons of toys and tons of treats. Not sure what to do. They need a new bed and I would love to get Abbie one of those snuggle ball beds but they rip their beds up so I am not going that route.

I will be watching this thread for ideas for sure.

I'm not the only one! YAY!

Every year my dogs get treated as Christmas. Each get a few new toys (I'm still trying to get Dubby to like his kong - it's been 4 years and he still hates it), some treats/chews and alternating years they get a new collar, leash and new tags to match, or a new bed. This year it's the collar, leash and tags. My family buys them gifts as well. My grandmother buys them a bucket with ground rawhide candy canes in it (I don't feed rawhide, so it's a special treat for them), bully sticks, pig ears/snouts and dried chicken breast tenders. My mom saves either turkey legs or the ham bones for them.

I use to get Izzy plush toys and she would never tear them up. Now with Gus, they play tug-o-war, so those toys don't last long.

We wrap presents and fill their stockings. Our cats even have stockings, they're our kids! Although the real skin kids think it's pretty silly. Oh well, what do kids know anyways!
I am not sure about this year, Id like to get a nice toddler bed to put in our bedroom for them to sleep on because my bed is just getting too small, and it's a king.
I have learned that they wont un-wrap their gifts unless they can smell something yummy thru the wrapping paper, so I will put a dog jerky strip in btwn the wrapping paper and the gift so help them get excited.
