Christmas: Best Dog Presents
Shauna Storr

It's time for gift buying and you've got your mom, dad, brother and boyfriend covered, but what about your fur child? Sure, you could go basic and buy a few bones, ropes and treats then call it good, but do you know what the best things to buy are and what to avoid? Skip those cheap, little stuffed animals, gross rawhide bones and $1 treats. Get the bang for your buck and treat that furchild how he/she deserves.Throughout this post I have some awesome reccomendations for gifts that any doggo would love.

Kong Classic Dog Toy- $10.46 (Amazon)

What a classic!! Whether your dog is a super chewer, has anxiety, or just gets bored this makes a great gift any dog will enjoy. You just fill the kong with peanut butter, treats or dog food and it keeps him/her busy for hours.

If your dog loves rope toys, this is a great pick that's also inexpensive. Your dog can play tug-of-war, fetch or just chew on it. It's available in various sizes too so your dog can have the right size toy. The fibers in the rope also help floss your dog's teeth.

Nylabone Dental Dinosaurs- $2.59 (Petsmart)

Nylabone Dental Dinosaurs are another great toy idea from Nylabone, and they come in a Tyrannosaurus Rex shape. These chew toys are beef flavored to encourage chewing, and small nubs make great dental cleaners as they clean teeth and massage your dog's gums.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
