Ever treat your pup, to find them not really ‘getting on’ with their gift? Just like us, our pooches aren’t a one-size-fits-all when it comes to food, treats, and toys.
Depending on their personality type, temperament, and chew and play style - what satisfies their mind and body can vary massively. Which is why we’ve pulled together the ideal Christmas gift list for every kind of dog!
Don’t leave their gifting to chance, instead, get to understand what type of chewer your pooch is, so they can truly enjoy the season of giving (and receiving in their case).
The ‘power chewer’ is a dog with an unstoppable urge to gnaw, chew, and chomp their way through almost anything. These pups don’t just chew for fun – it’s part of how they explore the world, relieve stress, and keep their jaws strong.
Power chewers often have high energy, strong jaws, and a natural instinct to chew more intensely than the average dog. While this can mean shoes, furniture, and toys don’t last long, the right durable chews and toys can help channel that determination into something safe, healthy, and satisfying.
Fish Hide Chews - A safer alternative to rawhide, and ideal for the power chewer. Made with 100% Cod Skin, these tough, long-lasting chews contain a sea of health benefits for your pooch.
Dental Sticks - For a delicious treat that lasts longer than your average tidbit, our array of Dental Sticks are the way to go. Try our limited-edition Roast Carrot & Parsnip Dental Sticks this Christmas, for a special festive treat.
Rubber Treat Ball - As this treat ball’s made from durable rubber, it’s designed to survive the most aggressive of chewers! Simply hide their dry food or treats within the grooves, and watch them get to work!
The ‘intelligent chewer’ is a dog who doesn’t just chew for the sake of it – they chew with purpose. These clever canines crave mental stimulation as much as physical, and they use chewing as a way to solve problems, beat boredom, and keep their brains busy. Intelligent chewers are often quick learners, becoming easily bored by simple toys.
Snuffle Ball - Watch them sniff, hunt, and devour their treats with our Snuffle Ball. With layers of colourful fabric, let their nose do the hard work as they retrieve their favourite goodies.
Rubber Treat Ball - A toy to challenge, stimulate and reward - our Rubber Treat Ball helps to relieve boredom and makes your dog work harder for their food. It’ll take all their brain power to work out how to get their goodies out!.
Meaty Treats - Said above toys require some sensational snacks to dig around for, and our range of Meaty Treats are guaranteed to satisfy their cravings. For something mouthwateringly festive, check out our Pigs in Blankets Meaty Treats.
The ‘gentle chewer’ is the kind of dog who enjoys a good nibble without going overboard. These pups like to chew for comfort or relaxation, rather than out of determination. Gentle chewers tend to enjoy softer textures, light gnawing, and toys or treats they can enjoy at their own easy pace. They’re less likely to destroy their chews in minutes, making them perfect candidates for more delicate treats or softer toys designed for a calmer chewing style.
Patch Toy - It's Patch, our Pooch & Mutt mascot! He’s a soft and cuddly companion for your dog, and with a squeaker in his belly and crinkles in his ears - he’s the perfect toy to snuggle and nibble.
Beef Jerky - An extra juicy, high-value reward for pooches who really will savour that flavour. This jerky will be extra enjoyable for your gentle chewer, or for a festive twist, gift them our Turkey & Cranberry Jerky.
Wet Food - For those who take their time, our range of wet food will be truly appreciated. Try basting it over a LikiMat, or even popping that LikiMat in the freezer! For a festive frenzy, our Three Bird Feast is an absolute cracker.
The ‘anxious chewer’ is a dog who turns to chewing as a way to cope with stress, nervous energy, or separation worries. For these pups, it’s a source of comfort and self-soothing that helps them feel more secure. Anxious chewers may be prone to working through furniture, shoes, or anything within reach when left alone, making it important to provide them with safe, calming chew options. The right chews and enrichment can help ease their anxiety, giving them both relief and reassurance.
Anything from our Calming Range - Whether it’s treats, dry or wet food, dental sticks, or fish chews - our Calming Range contains ingredients that help support relaxation. Perfect for your little ball of worry.
Rubber Treat Ball - Our Rubber Treat Ball has made the list again! And for good reason. It’s ideal for anxious mouths to gnaw on, keeping them occupied while they try to find the treats hidden within. It withstands intense chewing action, so is ideal.
Calming Bone Broth - Our Calming Bone Broth can be served in a variety of ways, but for anxious chewers, it’d work perfectly frozen into ice moulds to keep them occupied. They’ll also benefit from the natural calming ingredients in the process, making it a winner! We also have a limited-edition Chicken Gravy Bone Broth for the Christmas season for them to enjoy.
The ‘bored chewer’ is a dog who chews simply because they’ve got nothing better to do. When left without enough mental or physical stimulation, these pups will often turn their attention to whatever’s around them just to pass the time. Chewing becomes their way of filling the gap, burning off extra energy, and creating their own fun. With the right enrichment toys and plenty of playtime, bored chewers can easily be redirected.
The Pooch & Mutt Tennis Ball - Bounce, catch, throw, or fetch, our Tennis Ball is a super stylish way to play - keeping them entertained and free from boredom.
Snuffle Ball - They’ll never be bored again with our Snuffle Ball. The perfect gift for those dogs who want to keep busy - while you put your feet up and leave them to it. Simply stuff their favourite treats amongst the fabric layers, while they take their time to sniff them out.
Fish Hide Chews - Long-lasting, a safer alternative to rawhide, and the ultimate boredom-buster - our Fish Hide Chews are great to nibble, gnaw, and chew until their heart’s content.
So there you have it, a comprehensive Christmas gift list for every type of pooch personality and chewer. If you’re after something with a little sparkle to gift, or to add some pizazz to festive feeding - then our Christmas Range has been created for just that. It’s time to spoil them rotten…
