Great gifts for dog lovers

" A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself."- Josh Billings

For dog lovers, this sentiment speaks volumes about their special love of 'man's best friend'. That being said, here are some great gift ideas that will make those 'dog days of summer', for dog lover and pooch alike, both fun and exciting.

* Doggy Coupon Book.

This is a great idea for any dog lover - creatively homemade, or professionally made coupon books, detailing different dog services that you can personally perform. These cute yet practical coupon books can include coupons for:

1.) One free dog wash.

2.) Free dog walking services for a day.

3.) Free dog sitting for a day.

4.) One free dog rub.

5.) Free coat brushing for a day.

6.) Free Frisbee throwing for a day.

7.) Free take pooch to the park for a day.

It's vital to note that these services are best performed on dogs you know well and get along with.

* Doggy Gift Baskets.

Using a doggy bed as your basket base, include doggy items (items should be size, age, and breed appropriate) such as:

1.) Favorite doggy snacks.

2.) Doggy chew toys.

3.) Doggy blankets.

4.) Doggy leash.

5.) Doggy pooper scooper and bags to store poop in.

6.) Doggy sweater vest.

7.) Doggy shoes.

8.) Doggy conditioning bathwash.

9.) Doggy towel (to dry pooch off after bath).

10.) Doggy toothbrush and toothpaste.

11.) Doggy perfume.

12.) Doggy collar and name tag.

* Doggy Essentials.

1.) Doggy food and water bowls engraved with their name, accompanied with their favorite dog food.

2.) Gift card to "Pet Smart" or "Petco".

3.) Gift card for a local doggy training school.

* Dog Lover's Gift Basket.

Let's not forget about the dog lover themselves. A gift basket that contains the items listed below should be a real treat.

1.) Minuature doggy picture key chain (so the dog lover can keep a picture of his/her pooch with them at all times).

2.) Picture frame engraved with dog and dog owner's name.

3.) Cookies and chocolates, shaped in the form of doggy biscuits.

4.) A guide book featuring the owners breed of dog.

5.) An appointment/record book to keep up with pooche's vet appointments, shot records, all other vital health information, veterinarian's contact number, groomer, and contact number to his/hers overnight kennel shelter.

These few suggestion should wow any dog lover, and should please even the most finickiest of pooches.
