what are the best holiday gifts for dogs this year?
In a year like 2023, how wonderful has it been to have a loving dog in your life? Seriously, we don’t have a pet right now, but we sure wish we did!
Years ago, we wrote about the fact that in many ways, having a dog is a luxury. Statistics show that wealthy people are far more likely to have dogsthan the typical household. But in this horrible year 2020, we can easily make the case that being the pet parent of a wonderful dog is not a luxury – it’s a necessity!
Who doesn’t want someone to talk with, walk with and fuss over in the middle of a lockdown? Someone to watch Netflix with who won’t talk during the dramatic parts? Someone who won’t judge when you wear the same sweatpants every day for a week?
What’s more, the life of a dog in an affluent and/or tech savvy family can be pretty sweet. Of course, there’s the inevitable pressure to get into a good school. But otherwise, it’s not a bad gig.
When the holidays roll around, it’s especially fun when there’s something special waiting under the tree.
Every year there seems to be a splashy and fun new limited-edition luxury holiday gift launch specifically for dogs and their families.
For example, this month is the debut of the new #RockstudPet Valentino Garavani line of customized tote bags, leashes and collars. The totes can be customized with a bespoke hand-drawn illustration of a beloved animal from artist Riccardo Cusimano.
