Set up our tree tonight Indy boy was a little afraid of it (its his first Christmas in a home rather than a shelter) but Dav always hams it up for the camera.
What is everyone buying for Christmas gifts for their pets? We made pallet frame beds for the pups for the livingroom, and I just finished ordering dog backpacks for our hikes. Will probably grab some treats as well, neither of them are too super big on toys (except Dav and her squeaky Kong balls but she already has a ton of those).
We're checking out the different toys right now for the cats trying to decide what to pick up this time lol!
Does anyone have an toy recommendations for a puppy that loves to chew? He destroyed a rope this evening, and his favorite stuffed toy he can now rip apart in about a minute.
He does like Himalayan treats and we do fill kongs with treats. Looking for any other suggestions though!

This is Rox's first Christmas in a home too. I got her to sit still for a picture in reindeer ears for our Christmas cards by bribing her with Greenies (see my sig).
We are divvying up her gifts between Christmas and her adoption day which is Dec. 28. We don't know her actual birthday, so we are celebrating it on the day we adopted her. I am getting her a doggie cake from the dog bakery for her birthday too.
So probably: some new Kong food puzzles, new squeaky balls, some super special treats from the dog bakery, a couple new West Paw toys, and I might get her a cute matching collar/leash set, though that's more of a gift for me than her!

Rox is a tough chewer and we have found West Paw toys to be indestructible with her--no teeth marks even! They are amazing.

For our strong chewer, we get Antlerz, "Souper" Nylabones (not the edible ones), Kong Extreme toys and GoughNuts www.goughnuts.com/ -- oh, and not toys, but for long-lasting chews -- bully sticks.

Unfortunately bully sticks don't last long...they're good for about 40 minutes and that's it. I'll look into the goughnuts though, thanks!
It's Apple's first Christmas not in a shelter too so I'm excited to see how she is with the tree but we won't put ours up for another 2 weeks or so (we get a live one). I think she'll sniff the ornaments around the bottom and then get bored of it.
I just ordered her a Treat Cube. She loves her treat balls so I'm hoping this is just a little bit harder. She will also get a stash of new nylabones because she goes through them fairly quickly. This one is her favorite - Nylabone Romp & Chomp. They also make one with three inserts that I may try.
All the grandparents get her gifts too so she should get quite spoiled!!!

Ditto West Paw. My dogs love them and they are in one piece still, 2 years later.
Maxim is getting the Nina O Casino. Buddy is (hopefully) getting a new soft blankie - having troubles finding one that is soft but he can't catch his nails on it. Both dogs will share some BB Apple/Lamb sticks and BB Turkey Bits

I'm on the search for some new treats that Dav can have... I feel bad because I can get all this variation on flavours for Indy man but hers are so limited (she's allergic to all your standard protein bases except fish including chicken, beef, turkey, lamb)
