11 Best Gifts for Every Kind of Dog Lover

With nearly 70 million American households owning a dog, chances are you either have a slobbery four-legged friend roaming around your home or know someone who does. Whichever category you fall into, you know what a special breed dog owners are: They consider their pet a member of the family, and always want what's best for them — so it makes sense that when it comes time to buy them a present, you remember those furry companions.

"A dog lover appreciates a canine-focused gift because they are our babies," says Teena Graf, a dog care professional from Cos Cob, Connecticut. "We always want other people to love our pups like we do. Including our pets is a great way to say you understand and care."

But just as there are hundreds of kinds of dogs to choose from, so, too, are there seemingly innumerable kinds of gifts for dog lovers to dig through. Lucky for you, we've done the legwork to come up with all types of pup-centric presents — from paw print blankets to puppy-themed water bottles to personalized pooch picture frames.

Here are 12 top gift ideas for dog lovers. Woof, indeed.

With treats for Fido, too, this bundle will put a smile on both their faces.
