Do you know someone who recently received a new puppy or dog? Rather than calling and congratulating them, select or put together a Dog Gift Basket. It is the perfect gift and dog lovers will appreciate either putting together a dog basket yourself or buying one with yummy treats for your new pooch, and of course items for the owner to help them care for their new addition to the family. You can even buy one based on the breed, which of course is even more unique. Therefore, if you know someone who just got a new puppy, you could have lots of chew toys in the basket, pee pads, and even a new puppy handbook for the receiver.

Everyone appreciates baskets and dog owners love to receive Dog Gift Baskets because they are designed just for the dog and the items inside are all dog related, but still gifted in a lovely basket. Truly, you cannot go wrong when it comes to getting someone you know a new dog or puppy basket. You can select baskets that have plush toys, which are usually more suitable for adult dogs because puppies tend to chew plush toys to shreds. Therefore, if you are sending a gift basket for someone who just adopted a puppy, make sure the chew toys are solid, larger puppies have very strong jaws and eating little pieces of plastic from the chew toys can be harmful.

Sometimes with Dog Gift Baskets, you can specify what you want included, which is convenient since you wouldn't get a twenty pound puppy the same types of toys as you would a five pound puppy. Moreover, you can choose yummy treats that are preservative-free to get the puppy off to a great start. You can find baskets for large or small breeds as well as large and small baskets. Some of the baskets are big enough to include trial size bags of dog food so that the puppy is off to a good start.

In addition, with smaller puppies and short-haired breeds, you might want to look into adding some sweaters if you know the owner plans to have their new addition wear clothes. Of course, do not forget a collar and leash, which also make great additions to the basket. Baskets for new puppies come in many sizes and prices, you can find one for almost any budget and you can spend as much or little as you wish. Truly, it is a great way to show your excitement when someone you know is adopting a puppy. You can be certain of one thing, both the puppy and the owner will appreciate all the gifts that are in the basket, who enjoys it more is anyone's guess! Shop around online as there are several retailers that are especially for dog baskets, where you will find the perfect one for your gift.
