Class Clown:

The Class Clown dog is the life of the party, always ready to do something goofy to make everyone laugh. They're known for their playful antics and are often the source of entertainment in any situation.

  • Incorporate fun and interactive toys into their Christmas gifts. What could be better than watching your clown happily playing with a new (KONG Holiday Wubba Santa Dog Toy) chew and involving all your friends and family in their games?

  • Encourage them to perform their favourite tricks, or teach them some new ones. Reward them with Rosewood Pigs in Blankets dog treats.

Drama Queen/King:

Drama Queen/King dogs have a flair for the dramatic. They can turn the most mundane moments into grand spectacles, whether it's dramatically flopping onto the couch or letting out exaggerated sighs when they don't get their way.

Foodie:

Foodie dogs are obsessed with treats and meals. They'll do just about anything for a tasty morsel and are known for their persistence in trying to score a bite of whatever deliciousness is being served.

Nap Enthusiast:

These dogs have a knack for finding the cosiest spots for napping. They may even sleep through the most exciting events, earning them the title of "nap champion" and providing endless entertainment with their funny sleeping positions.

  • Set up a cosy nap zone with blankets and pillows where they can snooze while everyone else celebrates. Make their bed cosy with Scruffs Santa Paws Dog Blanket & Reindeer Toy Gift Set

  • Include them in naptime traditions, like reading a Christmas story aloud in their presence and give them some fancy sleepwear like the Joules Bauble Festive Pyjamas, to ward off the winter chill while they sleep

  • Capture photos of their odd sleeping positions and share them with friends, family, or even us. Tag us on our social media, we love to see your pets any time of year but especially at Christmas.

Party Animal:

Party Animals can't resist joining in on any celebration. They'll be the first on the dance floor at a family gathering, wagging their tails to the beat and enjoying the festive atmosphere.

  • Let them join in on the festivities by dancing with them or playing lively games.

  • Consider dog-friendly party hats like House of Paws Red Santa Hat with Antlers or costumes to make them feel like the life of the party.

Undercover Spy:

Undercover Spy dogs are convinced they're secret agents on a top-secret mission. They'll sneak around the house, and peek behind furniture searching for hidden presents.

  • Play hide-and-seek with your dog to indulge their sense of adventure.

  • Create "secret missions" using treat puzzles or hide some candy cane dog biscuits to engage their detective skills.

Fashionista:

Fashion-forward dogs love dressing up in costumes or outfits, strutting their stuff like runway models. They might even have a wardrobe rivalling your own, and their stylish appearances are sure to bring a smile to your face.

  • Dress them up in festive holiday outfits and have a mini photoshoot.

  • Involve them in the holiday decorating process by letting them "inspect" the decorations.

Daredevil:

Daredevil dogs are fearless when it comes to physical challenges. They'll attempt daring jumps and acrobatics, often with hilarious results as they showcase their brave, adventurous spirit.

  • Create a safe, dog-friendly obstacle course or agility course in your backyard. Make sure the house decorations are secured and not likely to be damaged during any ‘acrobatics’. Read our blog on keeping your decorations safe from your dog here.

  • Consider introducing them to canine sports like dog parkour or agility training.

Moocher Extraordinaire:

Moocher Extraordinaire dogs have perfected their "sad puppy eyes" and beg for treats or scraps at every meal. Their charming begging tactics can lead to humorous negotiations at the dinner table.

  • Share some dog-safe Christmas leftovers or special treats, but do so in moderation.

  • Teach them commands like "leave it" and "stay" to manage their begging behaviour.

Sofa Surfer:

Sofa Surfer dogs love lounging on the couch like they're auditioning for a doggy sitcom. They might even refuse to move when you need your seat back, creating amusing conflicts for the coveted couch spot.

Remember to prioritise your dog's safety and comfort during the holiday season, and be mindful of any potential hazards that could arise from their funny personalities. With a bit of creativity and consideration, you can celebrate Christmas in a way that makes both you and your dog happy.
