Friends! It’s 27 days to Christmas! And I am yet to buy a single Christmas prezzie. Are you in the same boat? If you’re looking for gift ideas for dogs and dog lovers, you have come to the right place!
As a pet photographer over the last 3 years in Auckland’s doggy industry, I've met and come in contact with great New Zealand brands who supply dog products / services who I think you should know about, and best of all, any of these from the list of gift ideas for dogs and dog lovers, you'll be able to buy online and be sorted for Christmas, without heading in to the crowded malls.
In no specific order, here is the Yellow Lab gift guide 2019, gift ideas for dogs and dog lovers in Auckland New Zealand.
