5 paws-itively perfect gifts for your pup

By Arianna Endicott

Our fur babies are an important part of the family, and it is important to make them feel loved. Pets can reduce stress and anxiety in humans, provide companionship to help with loneliness and encourage exercise. Having pets in the home can help children learn a sense of responsibility when they help take care of animals.

Whether you’re celebrating your dog’s birthday, gotcha day, or just want to treat them to some new gifts, check out these products to make your pup feel pampered!

Fur flies as soon as shedding season hits! This pet grooming glove makes brushing a breeze, and reduces the amount of pet hair left all over your home.

When you’re done grooming your pet, the fur peels off the rubber glove for easy cleanup!

Our pets love getting out of the house for some fresh air and exercise, and a walk is the perfect way to do that!

You can lock it in to a shorter length for busier areas, or let your pet roam up to 16 feet ahead for the full length of the leash. Your dog will love their newfound freedom, and you’ll love the ergonomic design of the handle.

Before your pet goes outside at night, turn the lights on so you can easily see where they are in your yard!
