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.

Mammoth Floss Chews Knot Rope Tug- $4.90 (Amazon)

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.

This Benebone chew toy has real bacon flavor so dogs love the taste. The curve of the wishbone makes it easy for dogs to grab and bite.

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.
