2024 Holiday Gift Guide for Dogs and Dog Lovers  

At KONG®, we believe there is something special for every dog and dog-loving human! So, whether you’re looking for a great stocking stuffer, a toy that holds up to even the most extreme chewers or something festive for a fellow pet parent, we’ve come up with a list of 12 must-have gifts of the season in collaboration with Dogtopia. Happy gifting!

1. KONG Classic  

Your dog’s dream stocking stuffer, KONG Classic, is a durable, mentally stimulating toy that offers enrichment and satisfies a dog’s instinctual need to play. This toy, offered in different sizes and rubber strengths, keeps pets occupied and calm, cures boredom and provides an outlet for chewing. You can spread even more cheer and extend their playtime by stuffing it with their favorite treats and freezing.

2. Doggie Daycare at Dogtopia  

If your pup enjoys a robust social life or could benefit from more exercise, doggie daycare at Dogtopia will be a worthy investment. Picture up to 10 hours a day of fun-filled play with their favorite furry pals, physical enrichment, supervision, education from Dogtopia’s highly trained team and other mentally stimulating activities (think chasing flavored bubbles, games and dance parties). You can make their gift that much sweeter by adding a stuffed KONG to their daycare experience. Plus, you’ll be able to enjoy more guilt-free days of work or play of your own knowing they’re in safe hands at Dogtopia. You can get started with this special offer of a free week of dog daycare.

3. KONG Holiday Shakers Luvs Reindeer

An excellent option for dogs who love to play solo or with friends, KONG Holiday Shakers Luvs Reindeer is a long, floppy toy ideal for sliding down your chimney this year. A festive outlet for healthy, active play, this toy (and dare we say pal?) satisfies your dog’s instinctual desire to shake and thrash. Its low-tone squeaker and warm sweater will brighten and prolong fun through the holidays and beyond. Check out your local pet retailers to shop KONG Holiday Shakers Luv Reindeer and other holiday KONG favorites.  

4. KONG Extreme Tires  

Even the toughest chewers deserve a gift that they’ll love for a long time! Made from ultra-durable rubber, KONG Extreme Tires are the ultimate challenge for dogs who take chewing seriously. A gift for the wolf inside your dog, this toy is great for interactive and bouncy games of fetch. You can add to their active chewing experience by filling the inner walls with a creamy snack like peanut butter or Greek yogurt to extend playtime.  

5. Dogtopia Shampoo and Conditioner  

Winter is all about staying cozy, which can be difficult for dogs who face dry climates and obnoxious slush, mud, melting salts and grime that stick to their coats. Dogtopia’s Shampoo and Conditioner can help keep your dog looking and feeling their best throughout the year. Made with soothing aloe and oatmeal, Dogtopia’s Shampoo and Conditioner restores dogs’ natural moisture and brings much-needed relief to itchy skin. As a bonus, its Piña Colada scent will keep their coat soft, comfy and aromatic.  

6. KONG SqueakAir® Balls

Ideal for fetch-lovers, KONG SqueakAir Balls combine the tennis ball and squeaker toy. Traditional tennis balls are made with abrasive felt that wears down the enamel on dogs’ teeth and damages gums, which is why KONG SqueakAir Balls are made with specially designed felt that’s softer on teeth. The high-pitch squeaker inside encourages long games of active fetch and dashing through the snow. Engaging their instinctual desire to chase, KONG SqueakAir Balls are also a fun way to help them work off some of that extra holiday weight.  

7. Dogtopia Dog Person Sweatshirt  

What better way to treat our favorite pet parents (or maybe even ourselves) than by giving a gift that embraces how much they adore their pup? The Dogtopia Dog Person Sweatshirt is a fashionable and cozy way to express their love for all things canine that also doubles as the perfect layer for chilly walks, baking cookies or snuggling next to the fire.

8. Dogtopia Doggie Bubbles

If you’re looking for a creative way to interact and spend time with your dog, consider Dogtopia’s Doggie Bubbles. Offered in pumpkin and birthday cake flavor, these dog-friendly bubbles are aromatic, delicious and destined to elevate playtime. They’re also great for engaging everyone in the family and adding more magic to the holidays.  

9. KONG Wild Knots Bear  

For the dog who equally enjoys play and relaxation, gift the KONG Wild Knots Bear. A soft and engaging plush toy, its internal knotted rope skeleton satisfies their urge to chew, break and tear. In between play, it makes for a great cuddle buddy. This toy comes in assorted colors and sizes and is made with minimal stuffing for less mess. It’s also the best size for taking along during holiday festivities and travel.  

10. Dogtopia “Only Speaking to Dogs Today Hat”

We all have that friend who prefers the company of their dog most of the time. When shopping for that person, look no further than the Dogtopia “Only Speaking to Dogs Today Hat”. Not only will it complement their personality, but it’ll elevate their dog walks and bring an edge to their style.

11. KONG Holiday Wubba

KONG Holiday Wubba is ideal for dogs who enjoy long games of tug and fetch. This festive penguin character’s long, floppy tail and squeaker satisfies their shaking instincts and sparks engaging solo or interactive play to create more holiday memories. Its fuzzy fleece material makes it great for cuddling when playtime is over. Shop your local pet retailer for your favorite KONG holiday toys. 

12. Dogtopia Dog Bowl  

They say the way to a dog’s heart is through their stomach. Spoil your pup by serving their meals, snacks and water in Dogtopia’s Dog Bowl. It’s made from high-quality stainless steel that is easy to clean and built to withstand even the most enthusiastic eaters. This bowl comes in a variety of colors and styles and makes meals at home or on the go convenient.
