Pick UK-made, grain-free goodies packed with flavour. Wrap them in tissue paper or a doggy stocking for a Christmas morning surprise.

Perfect for anxious or high-energy dogs. Fill with peanut butter, banana, or meat paste and freeze for a long-lasting treat.

7. 🎒 Dog Adventure Packs
Got an explorer? Put together a mini rucksack for walkies: collapsible bowl, treats, poo bags, towel & first aid kit.
