Christmas gifts to give for RVers with dogs (for dogs and humans)

It’s that time. Christmas shopping time! If you have RVing friends who own fur babies, or have your own furry friends, you’ll want to check out this list of the best Christmas gifts for RVers with dogs!

Emergency alert sticker

This first suggestion is a must-have for all pets. It’s an emergency alert sticker that RV pet owners can affix to their rig’s window. This great safety feature tells responders that a pet is inside your rig. The sticker has UV protection for durability so you can position it on the inside or outside of your RV. There are tons of sticker options on Amazon. Check them out here.

MudBuster

Keep mud and dirt out of your RV with this unique device. 60,000+ pet owners can’t be wrong, and they overwhelmingly rate this product with five stars. There are three sizes to choose from along with eight different color choices. And using the MudBuster is so easy: All you do is put your doggy’s dirty paw into the cup and swish. The dog’s paw comes out clean! Order or learn more here.

Interactive puzzle treat toy

Outward Hound makes several puzzle-treat toys for your pup. This one is a level 3 (difficult) challenge that will keep your dog busy during those long RV travel days. It’s also great for the destructive or nervous dog by diverting his attention towards obtaining a treat. Made from a durable composite of wood chips and plastic, the puzzle is made without PVC or PBA, and is phthalate-free. Find it (and other puzzles from Outward Hound) here.

GPS tracking collar

You’ll always know the location of your pup if she’s wearing this GPS tracking collar. Lightweight and waterproof, this subscription-based tracker (starting at $5/month) has no distance limit. The battery will last more than ten days before recharging is needed, and you’ll receive a phone message if your doggo wanders out of your predetermined perimeter. Your dog’s health status, sleep quality, and activity level are also available via the device.

Where’s (your dog’s name)? Children’s book

If you, a child, or a grandchild enjoyed the Where’s Waldo craze, you’ll love Yappy’s personalized search-and-find book. That’s right, the book will feature your dog (or a very close facsimile) hidden within the pages, ready for you to locate over and over again!

Dog glass markers

Love dogs? Love wine? Then you’ll love these adorable magnetic glass markers. Each package comes with charms featuring six different dog breeds. Use one to mark your wine glass, coffee cup, or any glass container up to 5mm in thickness. Cheers!

Pet hair vacuum

The Bissel Pet Hair Eraser Vacuum is a must-have for RVers with dogs. This battery-powered, USB rechargeable vac is great for eliminating fur on the RV upholstery, carpets, vinyl, and other surfaces inside the RV. Three included attachments will help you remove pet hair from crevices and corners, and you’ll appreciate the three-filter design that improves cleaning performance. Best of all, Bissel will donate $5 for each vacuum sold.

Utility treat pack

Wilderdog offers the ultimate utility pack for dog lovers. This company understands dog people. They’ve designed a “fanny pack” that can also adjust to become a cross-body bag. This utility pack features three separate pockets for keys, cash, and/or your cell phone. It has a built-in poop bag dispenser, and webbed attachment points so you can carry other accessories, too! Warrantied for a lifetime, you can launder the bag when necessary.

Funny smile dog toy

And lastly, you’ll have just as much fun with this one as your dog will. Get ready to laugh! This bouncy, squeaky ball has teeth on all sides of it, so no matter how your dog picks it up, they’ll always be grinning—and you will too! Order one here.
