Gun Dog Forum

OK, I'll start. Fletcher is getting a jumbo Greenie and a braided rawhide. Biscuit is getting a jumbo Greenie and some little porkhide rolly thingies. Plus something from my parents. And they got my parents' dog a Yorkie-sized Kong and some cookies.

I do some years and some years I don't. This year I did...kong toys, squeaky toys. The kids have a Santa secret shoppe at school every year, and they never forget to get them something from there.

Yeah, pets have always been part of the family and we've always been a Santa and not a Scrooge to 'em, ever since I was growing up and we just had a couple cats.

Only thing is, we don't get them presents, just a big stocking. We've gotten Justus a peppermint flavored cornstarch bone (candycane) and a meaty marrow-bone (like a Jumbone) so far, as well as three rawhide braid rings to keep him satisfied over the holiday-visiting-frenzy. My parents and parents-in-law got their "grand-dog" presents though, and not just a stocking.

Everyday is Christmas for my dogs, at least this year they get to go along in the trailer. And when my wife is not looking I am going to slip my present into the trailer. A new Beretta 28 ga, my wife doesnt know it yet but thats what she got me. The dogs present will be to go hunting.SDGORD

Cassi is getting some jumbo tennis balls, and sharing some new toys and Greenies with her visiting cousins. Christmas is ongoing for her anyway! No, she's not very spoiled...

The cats get new toys some years; some years they get "recycled." (That's when you find the 35 toys under the couch and refrigerator...)

Kage and Bell got lots of bones and collars...

All of our dogs get Christmas presents...all nine of them, wrapped and under the tree....they all open their own on Christmas morning, too. This year we had 3 rescue dogs along with our nine and they had their own presents, too. It's as much fun for us to watch as it is for them...I think they have more fun ripping off the paper and bows than actually getting the gifts! Usually Kongs and rawhide chewies....my Mom sends them gifts also and knits 1 or 2 of them sweaters...they wear them long enough for pics for Gramma

yes i do and he loves to open them. holds them in his paws and pulls the paper off with his teeth very carefully a real hoot to watch.

My dogs haven't figured out when Christmas is yet.

I don't, but my wife does! It make it kinda fun!

I usually go to the butcher and get some leg bones with some meat on them for the gang.

My dogs are atheists ......

When they figure out Santa doesn't exist,it's all over.

He doesn't ? !!

They got their own stocking and everything.

I think it's funny how all year my wife refers to the dog as "YOUR DOG!' But at Christmas she's always the one who gets "the puppy" about a half dozen toys or treats...

Yep......so far he is getting two new collars, a few chew toys, and a new crate that will fit him better now that he has grown alot. I'm sure I'll pick up some new treats and probably whatever else catches my eye between now and Christmas. How could you not get some things for your best friend for Christmas when he will give you so much in return all year long?

Normally I do but was a procastinator this year. Got them both a box of Milk Bones, a day late!

Now I gotta ask, What in the h*ll is a kong toy?

The wife always gets them some chew toys or something. This year I joined in and got Jo a new TT Classic 70 (ok so it's a little for me too)

Wife got our GSP 2 stuffed toys.....needless to say, these were shredded in about 10 minutes. I got him a rawhide bone....which he really enjoys but his real presents arrived late, they are in the back of my truck right now...(2 livley pigeons!)

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. This year I didn't, but they got gifts from other people.

My dog is my child...of course she gets presents.

Good poll! I secretly wondered how many upland dogs get spoiled like mine. You can count me as a "YEA" vote in the birthday present poll as well.

Yep. They don't get "Presents" per say, but they have stockings full of treats. Rawhide bones, Snausage type treats, Pig Snouts, Dried Cow Esophagus, etc... Depends what kind of "Goodies" the feed store is pedeling at the time.
