Will you be getting your dog a christmas pressent?

Will you / have you got your boys n girls Christmas presents?

Ive got Chase a nice big bone for christmas day to keep him busy, a huge new chicken nylabone and just ordered him a new harness to match his collar.

2 wrapped so far and under the tree Haven't anyone else to spoil, family done and are away Xx

The boys between them have so far:

New collars
new leads
kong each
rope toy
pizzles
ostrich cookies
their secret santa pressies

I THINK thats it....

Violet just now has more than 20 gifts wrapped up under the tree. Still waiting on a couple of things coming through the post too! Her main presses are a new collar and harness, then she's just got toys and the biggest bone I've ever seen.

my dogs present is the silly amount of turkey is left over they have 2 lots of turkey

I'm trying to get a new collar from your side of the pond with the Staffie symbols! So hard to choose. I really wanted a red one but only one I can find doesn't say what leather they use and I don't want the hard stuff!

where are you ordering it from ben?

I don't know. Was looking at a few online one was aecollars.co.uk and other was thestaffordshirebullterriershop.co.uk.

Hi Ben, We got Rockys collar from Wild for Pets.We went for the classic black leather collar. Please check the link this is for a cherry red supple leather collar. They have quite a few others to choose from. Not specifically sold as Staff collars though.

Thanks Kathy! I am looking for one with the staffy knots on it though as nobody here has anything like that and it would be quite unique. Plus, I really think they are nice looking. I like the red collar though. If I want a plain red one, I may just go that route!

Check this link, it may be along the lines of what your looking for. I got chase a collar from these people and they are really good quality. A real nice quality leather a weather proofed. Chase has had his about 6 or 7 months and its still like brand new.

Thanks! I decided to wait and shop some more. The ones I like are these as I am not as big a fan of the pokey studs: http://www.staffordleather.com/38mm%20staffordshire%20bull%20terrier%20collars.html.

Had to update my shopping since deciding to get Frosty. Now they each will get a long rope tug, small kong knot toy, nylabone, new collars, treats and a new jolly ball each! That should do it. Oh, and Monte is getting a playmate so I guess it is presents enough for now. lol

wow those collars are really nice. Um not a huge fan of studs either, the one i got chase has small metal squares, they are kind studs, but not pointy. Sorta like the ones on your link, but smaller and lots of them in 2 long strips, you can kinda see in my display picture.

I like it Steve

I probably won't put anything under the tree for the boys - but they will get pressies from others (my sister, my dad, my best friend at least). Gummi just got a nice big new crate and replacement flashing collar since he broke the old one.... And I was at Ikea the other day and brought back a big bag of stuffies.. so I don't really feel bad for them....

The new "clam" (actually square) wading pool and sandpit is in the garage - its bigger than the tree so will have to stay there.
We are going to get a few more things in the next few days to put under the tree. I'm thinking new collars and leads and a new toy each and some chew bits and pieces. Maybe a frisbee for Izzy or a new ball and Kita a new ball (it's all she plays with). I think I'll leave it till Thursday as I'm off that day.

I really want to get Ollie a present, just don't have a clue what, so ideas would be nice .

Getting Phoebe a climing thing

I can recomend AECollars mate , Max's harness came the other week and we are very impressed with the quality, and I'm gonna get a collar from them in the new year

From other posts it seems that as long as it has lots of wrapper paper to get through it will be a hit.

Going to get mine some winter coats if they are good..

Thanks Andy. Always a bit cautious ordering international but I think I'm going to order them up. I'm looking at those harnesses and wanting those as well!

Very thick bridal leather and solid brass, nice stuff I like the plain items with no decoration, but they sent me a free key fob with the knot on

..

Know what ya mean about ordering inter, thats the only reason I havent ordered a pullin harness from your side of the pond really

I had a collar and lead from Staffordshire bull terrier shop years ago for my first staff and it was really good quality. Will be buying Zacs from their too, a family tradition lol

On the subject of Christmas presents ... He already has 10 and counting!
