CHRISTMAS GIFTS FOR DOGS

Is Santa Dog coming this year to leave a gift under your family's Christmas Tree for a puppy on his Nice List? If so, there is a good chance he'll be leaving some toys from Petmate.  For 50 years this company has been providing products for family pets and they have a wide assortment of toys to help keep dogs happy and healthy.  Here are a few of my favorite Petmate products that make great Christmas gifts for the special canine(s) in your life:

ROBOBONE ELECTRONIC TREAT DISPENSER

Geek out with your pet over RoboBone. It is a robotic chase toy that is sure to entertain your dog while providing it some exercise. Plus it will get some treats out of playing with it too!

Stuff the wheels full of your dog's favorite treat and watch ROBOBONE  randomly spin around a room distributing treats as it goes. This motorized dog toy is meant to be used indoors with a design that allows it to move around freely without getting stopped or stuck. This is really useful on cold, snowy winter days when neither you or your dog want to go outside to play.



RoboBone is programmed to run when its power switch is turned on for three minutes and then go into sleep mode until your pet wakes it up with a nudge. When reawakened, the toy will start a new two-minute randomized motion cycle to distribute more treats. Since it is meant to be used indoors, RoboBone will work on a variety of floor surfaces including carpet, tile, and wood. Plus for dog safety, it is made from durable non-toxic plastic materials with the electronics securely housed inside. Our Boxer LOVED playing with RoboBone!

FAT CAT FOODIES

These Fat Cat items at first glance may seem like they are for felines but these toys with a funky sense of humor are meant for canines.  FAT CAT® FOODIES pair the imagery of cats and tasty treats like donuts, tacos and pizza to create some funny looking dog toys made of durable polyester material.  These toys include squeakers and floppability features to captivate a dog's attention and relieve your pets natural instinct for catching prey.

CHUCKIT! RING CHASER

Satisfying your dog's natural chase instinct while playing with the Chuckit! RingChaser. Dogs are sure to get some exercise while having fun chasing a durable ring designed to provide unique topspin infused action so that it erratically bounces, zig-zags, and hops across the ground mimicking the scampering actions of what a real animal would do if being chased.  The Chuckit! RingChaser features a long, ergonomic handle with an easy pickup head that allows for a smooth throwing motion and slobber free pick-up of rings.
