The base sits around your dog’s neck like a collar, holding the top of the hat in place and keeping those vulnerable ears oh-so-snuggly warm no matter what weather you’re faced with this winter.

Reindeer antlers, Elf hats, Santa hats, or hats suited for an Alpine skier, you’ll certainly find something that suits your dog’s tastes. Give your Christmas card a well-deserved boost this year with your irresistible hat-wearing hound front and center.

Cheap dog toys can easily come apart, break in your dog's mouth and your dog might swallow small pieces of foam or plastic.

This is why we sell only durable and high-quality dog toys at Bitch New York!

Christmas collars are the perfect opportunity to stock up on your holiday collar charms as well. Snowflakes, snowmen, reindeer, Santas, candy canes and wreaths are just a few of the different kinds of holiday bling you can add to your dog’s collar.

You can’t go wrong with the design, but make sure to pay attention to the size guide. With such a wide variety of collars available, not all fit the same. The last thing you want is an adorable Christmas collar your dog can’t wear on Christmas morning!

If you’re looking for a seasonal scarf, we recommend the chunky cable-knit infinity dog scarf. It provides added warmth to one of their most vulnerable parts. The scarf is made from a thick alpaca blend so impossibly soft, you’ll wish you had one. It’s available in red, charcoal, natural, and camel colors or in three unique Christmas patterns.

FAQs

 What shouldn’t you give your dog for Christmas?

Avoid dog toys made outside the U.S.A. Other countries have more lenient rules when it comes to the materials used to make plastic products. Check that any dog toys you buy are latex-free, BPA-and-phthalate-free, and FDA compliant.

Skip sugary, fatty, or salty dog treats. Treats aren’t necessary for a healthy dog’s balanced diet so anything they’re getting outside of mealtime is a bonus. You might as well make it healthy! Read the labels on commercial dog treats. If your dog eats from the table or receives too many treats high in sugar, fat, or salt content, it can make your dog overweight and lead to other digestive health problems.

 

Are Christmas trees safe for dogs?

Decorating your home for the holidays is one of the best parts of Christmas. If you’re a dog-owner, however, you should be aware that some popular decorations can be dangerous to pets.

Natural Christmas trees are generally safe for pets. If your dog ingests the sap, some mild intestinal discomfort can take place, but responsibly-sourced natural trees are generally non-toxic.

Artificial Christmas trees require some vigilance. Artificial trees can become brittle with age, increasing the chance of some small piece of plastic or aluminum breaking off. This could cause an intestinal blockage or mouth irritation if ingested by your dog.

 

Can dogs eat Christmas dinner?

When preparing your Christmas dinner, you may be tempted to set aside a special treat for your dog as well. Turkey, cooked or raw vegetables, and fruit make great holiday dog treats.

Do not feed your dog bird bones, chocolate, food with lots of herbs and spice, uncooked dough, grapes, raisins, currants, sultanas, or fruits with pips.

When dishing up holiday treats for dogs, we recommend keeping track of size and moderation. Cut up vegetables and meat into bite-sized pieces to prevent choking and restrict intake to small amounts, no matter how they beg. Too many holiday treats can cause discomfort or even be harmful.

A final tip for you to consider as you’re shopping for puppy gifts this holiday season:
