Breed Dog  Gifts

Also: Puppy Dog Gifts, Dog Lover Gifts

If you have a breed dog, or a friend or relative has a breed dog, and you want to buy them a Christmas gift, then the choice is similar to that for a mongrel dog or dog owner.

However, for a breed dog there are some differences. Firstly, the owner is likely to be more serious about dogs. Secondly, being more serious, they may well be interested in dog shows and even show their own breed dogs in shows themselves. Thirdly, they are possibly more prone to be a bit up market in their tastes. Of course, those things do not apply to all breed dog owners, and some mongrel dog owners will be just as serious about dogs.

When it comes to breed dog gifts, there are the same divisions as with other dog gifts: the gift can be for the dog itself, or, more often than not, the owner.

You can find many ways to please the dog owners themselves with breed dog gifts especially. The reason for this is you can find gifts based on the dog breed itself, so your gift can be very well targeted to the recipient, so long as you know the breed of their dog.

What would the reaction be if your breed dog owner friend or relative opened their gift to find a Beagle welcome plaque, an Afghan statue, a Basset Hound T-Shirt, a Dachshund dog treat tin, or even a Corgi woodcarving? I am sure the lucky recipient would be pleased that you have gone to the trouble to choose something related to their special dog breed.

So, if you are looking for a dog lover gift and know the breed, it really is worth making it a special breed dog lover gift.

The Best Dog Breeds for Families

 

The family dog is part of the way of life for millions across the US and UK, and a few other countries too. often, they are adored and cared for as if they were a baby. in fact, some couples who choose not to have children will talk of their dog as a baby replacement.

So, dogs are very much a part of the family, but when choosing the dog for your family, there are important traits to keep in mind.  Some breeds of dog are wonderful for families while others simply do not have the proper temperament to deal with family life.  These dogs may be too rough with small children, or need space and not be able live in confinement with the incessant coming and going of a large family, or simply too naturally aggressive to respond well to a family setting.  Other dog breeds are just perfect fits for family life.  Here are some of the best family dog breeds.

Boxers

Boxers look large and scary and have a deep, resonating bark that makes intruders wary, but they are truly gentle, loving, and loyal dogs.  Their size may make families with small children want to wait a few years before owning one, but they are a perfect family pet once the children are a little older.

Irish Setters

Irish Setters are known for their pleasant personalities and their eagerness to please humans.  They were also originally bred as hunting dogs and can serve well in this capacity, but it is their aptitude for companionship that makes them a beloved family breed.

Newfoundland

Remember the dog “Hooch” from the Tom Hanks movie Turner and Hooch?  This is Hooch, a big, friendly, loving pooch.  They tend to slobber and drool rather excessively, but the Newfoundland is a loving and protective pet.  Like the boxer, the dog’s size may be of some concern, but it will be hard to find a more loyal dog for a family than this breed.

Collies

The Collie may be one of the breeds most easily associated with the qualities of a family dog due to the popularity of the Lassie television programs.  Collies are characterized by a combination of intelligence and patience uncommon in other breeds, and I must say I do have a soft spot for collies.

Golden Retrievers

Originally bred as a bird dog (like most retrievers), the Golden retriever is an amazingly loyal and very protective breed.  They are perfect for families that enjoy outdoor activities because they love to run, jump, and play.
