Do dogs know its Christmas?
First question, have you bought a christmas present for your dog this year?
A few years ago, you would have been considered barking mad or over-indulgent if you’d answered ‘yes’ to this - but not anymore!
A poll published last week showed that around 90 percent of Americans consider their dog or cat a part of their human family, and 65 percent of Americans buy gifts for their pets during the holidays.
A gift under the tree for your dog is now the norm. It might just be a bag of his favourite treats, a new bone or a new toy - but dogs aren’t left out on the presents.
But thats not all!
For many dog owners a present is just the start, they throw a party for them, have them photographed with Santa, or give them a spa treatment.
My dog Monty, has got his own Christmas list too. ‘He’ buys presents for his other doggy friends and some humans!
What have you bought for your dog this year?
