Gift Wishlist for Bulldog Lovers
The holidays will be soon upon us and, although I’m not one to rush, I thought I’d write up an adora-bull gift guide for bulldog lovers. As a bulldog obsessed person I am THRILLED when people buy me bulldog themed items for holidays - so my first tip is: when you’re out shopping, stay on the lookout!
Note: all links will be grouped together at the very bottom.
Here in the PNW having at least one good pair of rain boots is an essential for dog owners - not just for walks, but for going out in the yard hunting for piles. I have one pair on my back patio dedicated to this job specifically. When I saw these, I knew I had to have them: short rainboots with frenchies on them. Total win for the frenchie lover in your life (run true to size). They are $52.99 for a size 8 at the time of this post AND they’re shipping quickly.
Speaking of piles, these dog waste bags are really for ANY dog lover - but I had to feature them because the lyric twists/puns give me a little giggle during an otherwise unpleasant job. The waste bags are by BarkBox (readers know how much I love BarkBox) and come in two styles: Pug Life & Poopaganda. Price at the time of blog post: $12.99 for 300 bags.
This “All You Need is Love and a Bulldog” sign is sitting right by me at my work desk! I was impressed with its quality for price. The little paw prints on the side and the textured look make this look like a boutique store purchase! Currently listed for $10.
The blanket I wanted to recommend in this gift guide is not currently available for sale!! Roscoe is modeling our bulldog sushi blanket to the right :) I will keep looking for it myself but I also suggest you do a basic Google search to see if you can find it by the time you read this blog.
Note: I will include the link for a version of the blanket I found with cats on sushi in case you also own a cat and love sushi!
However, I own a bajillion English and French Bulldog themed throw blankets and I’ll post some of them below. I even included a bulldog lovie, for the itty-bitty bulldog lover! I tend to use my throw blankets on the couch, in my Diggs crates, and as stylish covers for the crates.
Below are a couple unique spots for bulldog gifts:
French Bulldog Love is, like myself, a woman-owned small business and her shop is filled to the brim with the cutest French Bulldog items including clothing, blankets, stickers, and so much more.
Not only does she offer seasonally themed items (their Halloween items are SO cute), they have custom items too. She is active on Instagram and has a blog.
Kelson Paper is ANOTHER woman-owned small business. I have the most adorable blanket, magnets, and stickers from her featuring both English and French Bulldogs.
I strongly suggest you follow her on Instagram so you can be aware when she opens up or offers art experiences. My purchase was part of a batch of products called “Prints for Paws” which donated money to French Bulldog Village. Everything I purchased was wonderful!
If you aren’t yet familiar with the valuable work done by Bulldog Haven NW then I recommend a look through their website. BHNW rescues, rehabs, and re-homes bulldogs who need special care or medical treatments their owners cannot afford, so any extra funds are enormously helpful.
They operate a TeeSpring shop and a CafePress shop full of Bulldog Haven NW themed items. Your purchase will support their non-profit and help bulldogs in need!
Consider making a donation in the name of your bulldog lover as a gift this holiday season, add them as your Amazon Smile beneficiary, or purchase something off of their Amazon wish list to help the dogs in care.
Another gift idea I would recommend is a paid subscription to BarkBox. I wrote an entire blog about how much we love BarkBox here at ComfortaBull Dog Care. Their toys have been strong enough to stand up to our constant rotation of strong chewers and we haven’t had to throw one out yet. We keep an entire bucket full but will send some home with clients if they develop a “favorite” during their stay.
Note: we only get a free BarkBox added on to our account if you purchase a 6 month subscription or more, which we do not anticipate you to gift, so there is no incentive for us to share other than sharing our love of the subscription service.
Happy shopping! Please feel free to share any shops or products that you are absolutely in love with in the comments.
