What is a good Christmas gift from the dog?

A Christmas gift from the dog can be an illustrated mug, a personality blanket, or a portrait, each painted from the dog's photo. A short note in the dog's voice, signed with its name, comes in the box. Review the artwork before adding it to your cart.

Example: a dog painted on a mug, a sherpa blanket and a framed portrait in one living room.

Mug $45 · Blanket $129 · Portrait from $59

The details

This year, the dog's buying. Plenty of people already sign the dog's name on Christmas cards. A gift painted from the dog's photo, with a note in the dog's own words, goes one better.

A portrait of their dog

A portrait brings the dog into a room they use every day. Heartside's 12 × 18 inch portrait comes unframed or in a black, white or red oak finish frame, with a short note from the dog in the box.

Something for every day after Christmas

An illustrated mug for whoever walks the dog before coffee.
A personality blanket for the person the dog sleeps on.
A portrait for grandparents who miss the dog between visits.

Make the words true to the dog

The note works when it names what the dog really does, in the way that dog would say it:

I wait by the door for you, weekends too.
You have your coffee and I wait for toast.

Order early

Personalized gifts are made to order, so they take longer than something off a shelf. Check the delivery estimate on the product page before you order for Christmas.
