Special Gifts For The Dog Lover In Your Life

December 22, 2017

Shopping for gifts for dog lovers is so much fun, especially online. Just plug in dog-themed gifts into Pinterest or Instagram and you’ll be shopping for hours, overwhelmed by choice and the sheer number of talented people out there pouring their puppy passion into their art. 

We tried to narrow it down a bit for you, focusing on fun, unique, and must-have gifts for the dog lovers in your life. One area where we paused a little while was the jewellery section. If the dog lover in your life hasn’t any dog-inspired jewellery by now, it’s time they got some! 

So this is where we start our shopping spree with some bling and sparkle and a bunch of fun and fantastic ways to represent your best doggie friend. Here are some of our favourites.

Dachshund Jewellery 

Dachshund Enamel Necklace and Acrylic Bangle

With such a fun shape to work with, these lovable dogs make some of the quirkiest, cutest jewellery you can find. Created by Bonsny, this designer creates a whole range of different breeds in fun enamel designs like the one seen above. From earrings, necklaces, bangles, and key chains, you will certainly find your favourite breed among them. You can find pop-art inspired jewellery and photo designs too for a more realistic look, like this dachshund acrylic bangle above. Most of all, they’re fun, colourful and unique. The enamel dachshund necklace sells for $34.00 and the doxie acrylic bangle sells for $20.00 from Bonsny.

Pug Jewellery

Pebbles The Pug Brooch from ErstWilder - $35.00

Just look how cute this resin brooch is and how well the designer has caught the personality of a pug. (You should see the poodle brooches!) ErstWilder gifts describe themselves as decidedly fun, often outrageous, somewhat quirky, delightfully companionable, and full of personality. This brand is very popular and items sell out fast! So don't delay! This pug brooch comes in a cute tin, together with a teapot hand tag. You can find this brooch and more for about $35.00 from ErstWilder

Stained Glass Pooch

Stained Glass Brooches and Necklaces by Kaleidoscop Glass

Tiffany-style stained glass dogs was on my wish list search, but I never thought I’d find jewellery in this medium. Simple yet beautiful, you could hang these necklaces around your neck or in a window somewhere to catch the light. Kaleidoscop also makes brooches. I love the cartoon-like characters and exaggerated features of these pieces. So cute and such a unique gift for a dog lover.

Labrador Retriever Enamel Hug Ring by Dog Fever - $499.00

Available in every breed imaginable and created in solid 925 silver as well as enamel, these hug rings capture the bond of friendship between you and your best canine friend. Dog Fever make a variety of different styles from charms, pendants, and earrings of every breed. They say this ring shows your commitment to a partner and friend that you love and remember every single day. 

Samoyed Sterling Silver Necklace by Siberian Art Jewelry - $344.00

This beautiful necklace captures the samoyed in six wonderful poses. Rendered in sterling silver and suspended from a round omega chain, this dynamic piece is one of those special gifts you’d give a loved one. Simple yet elegant. This designer features many breeds and various styles for every taste.

Diamond Dogs

This list wouldn’t be complete without a few blingy bits. Yes, they’re expensive, but if you see something you like, just imagine it in Swarovski crystals. Any talented jewellery could re-imagine a haute jewellery piece like this beautiful beagle by Master Exclusive Design and craft it affordably with crystals. 

Beagle 18K Gold Ring With Diamonds by Master Exclusive Design

This beautiful beagle ring is crafted in 18K yellow and white gold, with a host of colourful diamonds - white, black, and yellow - gorgeous green tsavorite and demantoid gemstones, with contrasting orange sapphires and enamel butterflies to finish it off. Exquisite! 

Diamond Dog Paw Engagement Ring by Mervis Diamond Importers - $6,000

This enchanting engagement ring was originally commissioned by a husband-to-be to celebrate his love for his bride and the dogs they had rescued together. How beautiful is that? This ring is now a regular item in the Mervis Diamond catalogue and sells for about $6,000. Unique, precious, and heartfelt.
