Holiday Paw-ty list and pet safety tips this season
COLUMBIA, SC (WOLO)- When you’re making your list and checking it twice this holiday season, don’t forget about your furry friends!
Modern Companion Pet Boutique is here to help you find the ‘paw-fect’ gifts for your dog, or the pet lover in your life, all while getting them prepared for the New Year fireworks.
Pupsicle
* The pupsicle is the must have dog toy this season!
* Pupsicle is easy for pet parents on the go to use, you can pop one of the premade treats into the toy for a quick and easy treat or make your own pops with a treat tray mold.
* Dogs stay entertained for an average of 20-40 minutes while they lick the treat until it is small enough to fall out of the toy.
* It’s safe for super-chewers and gives your dog a way to focus their energy and attention to help them get tired a little faster.
Puzzle Bowls
* Puzzle bowls are another great way to challenge your dog by giving them a problem to solve.
* You can put treats, kibble, anything your dog would want to search for into the bowl. The ridges make them work for their reward!
* The spinning puzzle at the center makes the puzzle more challenging and more interesting for your dog. The pieces can even move around to keep it fun!
Wunderballs
* Puppies and adult dogs both love Wunderballs!
* These look like bath bombs, but that’s because they’re made of a super durable recycled rubber that’s easy on dog’s teeth but still bouncy enough to be a ton of fun.
* The weird shape means that the ball bounces in all different directions. It’s unpredictable so it stays exciting even if the dog drops it on the floor themselves.
Dog Scarves
* Our dog scarves are perfect for this season when the weather finally starts cooling down.
* Scarves are a fun and unique alternative to bandanas and bows (but we also do have those) and feel just as cozy as they look.
* Scarves are easy to put on your dog. They slip over the head and sit comfortably on the neck without hanging down where the dog can see them.
* We have lots of festive colors and we even have matching human scarves that are perfect for holiday card photos!
Hands Free Leashes
* For the pet parent, a hands free leash is a great option for taking your pet out with you when you’ll need your hands to do other things.
* Hands free leashes are adjustable so you can size them in a way that’s comfortable for you!
* This is great for events like Soda City where you want to be able to look around and pick things up. It’s also great for patio dining. Really, if you take your dog everywhere, hands free makes outings a lot easier.
Modern Companion is also hosting their New Year’s Eve Pawty to help get your pup tuckered out before a night of fireworks! Visit nyepawty.com for tickets and more information.
