What is a cynophile? It’s a person who loves canines. The British population pride themselves on being a nation that adores the dog. In fact, there are approximately 13.5 million dogs as pets in the UK with 36% of households owning a dog.
So, when it comes to present hunting, this makes life a little easier. You could choose a dog themed gift with no breed association. Presents adorned with multiple mutts are aplenty, such as Katie Cardew’s Dog mug or the endearing Shabby Dog Draught Excluder.
If your friend or family member is loyal to a particular breed, the options to bring a smile to their face with a truly thoughtful dog lover’s gift are many. The soft Twill Scarf features charming illustrations of dachshunds or labradors. The devoted dachshund owner would also appreciate a Linen Mix Cushion with the words ‘I love my Dachshund’ or a mug with the cutest sausage dog with a couple of daisies.
Practical yet fun presents include a set of Dog Clips – perfect for organising papers, notes or as a bag clip – or keep that fridge door tidy and amusing with Dog Butt Magnets!
Labrador lovers will melt when they see a notebook featuring a handsome black lab or a pair of striking cufflinks with their favourite breed sitting proudly in his red collar. You can even find bars of soap representing popular breeds such as cockapoos, border terriers, Jack Russell’s and of course, labradors, both black and yellow.
The beloved pooch is a key member of the family and as such, deserves to be remembered on birthdays, at Christmas and quite frankly, simply for being. Treat them to a snazzy new lead in beautiful tweed and the softest vegan leather. In green or orange, these will ensure your dog is the smartest on the daily walk. Style with a matching collar and poo bag for ultimate impact.
In the UK it is a requirement by law that your dog is identified. If your pooch appreciates the finer things in life, spoil him or her with a Sweet William dog tag. Made of silver-plated brass, the inscription on one side is sure to make you smile whilst the reverse is ready for your personal details.
Every now and again all dogs have a mishap that requires a bath. Most frequently, this is a decision made by the pooch – some irresistible smell, usually favoured by them but detested by their owners, that results in the urge to have a good roll. Opt for a body wash with no nasties and enhanced with vitamins to make their coat shine and the fragrance preferable.
