From digging for diamonds with her Alsatian in Arkansas to white-water rafting with her Weimaraner in Wyoming, she’ll discover 365 of the best places to stay and play with her pup in all 50 states with the latest edition of BringFido’s Ruff Guide to the United States. Order her copy today for just $10 + shipping.
A Dog and Mom Hotel Stay
Celebrate mom’s love of her canine children with a fabulous stay in a pet-friendly hotel or vacation rental. Vermont’s Wilburton Inn is hosting an entire Mother’s Day Weekend celebration, where guests and pets will participate in a princess ball, campfire sing-along, and brunch. If she can’t make it to Vermont, book her a stay at a luxurious pet-friendly Airbnb in your state.
A Hands-Free Dog Leash
Give mom the gift of unencumbered walks with a cute and comfortable hands-free leash from Zee Dog. She’ll be able to move freely with her four-legged friend safely at her side and use her phone, take photographs, or explore. The lightweight leash can be worn slung over the shoulder or tightened around the waist for any adventure Fido and mom are embarking on together.
Pet Breed Candles
The Pet Collection at Scripted Fragrance includes a candle for every pup, whether he’s a purebred pooch or a mixed breed rescue. The candles are created with individual and distinct scents inspired by each breed. Don’t worry, though, they don’t smell like dog. The Pitbull candle, for example, is a rich mix of sweet vanilla, light musk, warm sandalwood, and a hint of jasmine designed to compliment the breed’s determination, confidence, loyalty, and enduring companionship. Candles come in a reusable rocks glass featuring a printed black dog silhouette and are beautifully packaged in an eco-friendly gift box.
A Sweet Dog Memory Book
Every dog mama will adore this fabulous Dog Memory Book. Filled with amusing prompts and playful illustrations, the journal is an appealing place to record all the precious moments and memories she will make with her beloved pet over the years. There are write-in sections, places to paste photos, a place to put Fido’s paw print and nose print, and empty pages to put notes or more photos.
Matching BFF Collar & Bracelets
Whether she’s at work or simply in the next room, the dog mom you know and love will always be connected to her bestie. A matching friendship collar and bracelet set is a precious reminder of that bond, and these sets at FriendshipCollar are bright, bold, and memorable. Plus, the materials used are vegan, scratch- and water-resistant. For every purchase, the company donates food to pet shelters across the U.S.
Dog Mom and Pooch Photo Session
Most dog moms have countless photos of their beloved four-legged children, but all too often, Mom herself is missing from the shots. Book her a “Mommy and Me” photo session with a local pet photographer for a sentimental gift she’ll cherish forever. As an added bonus for last-minute shoppers, you can often purchase a dollar amount directly online with a photographer and send it electronically or print it immediately.
A Pretty and Cozy Crate
The best gift for any dog owner is a happy dog. A crate gives pets a sense of security that helps them feel more relaxed and safe, but many traditional wire kennels aren’t aesthetically pleasing. This Diggs Revol Double Door Collapsible Wire Dog Crate is the perfect solution for modern dog moms who know their pooch deserves a comfortable bed but don’t want to sacrifice style. Its ergonomic design also makes it an ideal choice for those with on-the-go canines.
Adorable Matching Outfits
Personalized Pet Portrait Jewelry
What dog mom doesn’t want her mutt’s mug on jewelry? A custom pendant with her pet’s portrait, like this one from Printed Pawz, is a thoughtful gift that she can keep close to her heart. If jewelry isn’t her style, companies like Mod Paws also offer customizable and stylish items ranging from blankets and mugs to tumblers and phone cases.
