Gingerbread Dog

Gingerbread is a big part of the Christmas celebration in our home. We decorate gingerbread houses with the little kids, and enjoy those wonderful German and Swedish gingerbread cookies that we find at Cost Plus, Ikea, and Trader Joe's. There are even a few brown felt gingerbread ornaments,  constructed very long ago, that appear to grace the tree.

This year we have several fun gingerbread items for the fur kids. 

This is called pajamas, but I think of it more as a jumpsuit. Comfy, cozy, and so cute. Not too thick, just the right weight for your little dog who may love to play the gingerbread man chase game that every dog knows so well.

Take a picture of your little dog in this one for some great promo pictures for the cookie exchange or Christmas holiday event you enjoy. It could be your dog's Halloween costume as well.





This is a nice medium-sized, plush, squeaky toy. Perfect for the friend at work who likes to talk about his dog. A great gift for your own pet, who will love all the handy pickup points on this gingerbread boy.

I think our dogs' favorite toy of all time is this set of four.

 There is the gingerbread house

and the three smaller pieces that can be hidden inside it.

As a set this makes such a bundle of fun for one or more dogs.

We'll be listing more Christmas toys and apparel in the days ahead, as well as a couple of Thanksgiving items that are quite unique. Of course it doesn't have to be Christmas for you to enjoy some gingerbread cookies and a cup of coffee. Take time to relax while you plan ahead for the holidays. As we remember from our early years, at least half the fun is in the anticipation.
