Rambos Christmas List

Let’s see what’s on Rambos Christmas List. Rambo is a Staffy X (English Staffordshire Bull Terrier x American Staffordshire Terrier) and our beloved senior (aged 12).

Let’s move on to the Wadis (Arabian Village Dogs) Panda and Chalkie

Chalkie’s Christmas List

Chalkie is a deaf Arabian Village Dog from Oman and his way to go about things is to ‘bounce them around’.

From left to right, starting at the top:

Next up is Panda – a fellow Wadi Dog and our girly. She’s the smallest of them all with only 24 kg, so falls in the medium dog category.

Again, from left to right, starting at the top:

Last but not least, let’s look at our big nose boy Big A – and me, as a dog mom and dog trainer who loves enrichment also have a few recommendations.

What’s on Big A’s List

Big A is a Classic American Bully and our biggest one – big nosed softie.

From left to right, starting at the top:

  • Kong Dog Squeezz Ball – they come in different colours and sizes.
  • KONG Jumbler Ball – Interactive Dog Toy for Dog & Puppy Playtime – Fetch Toy with Tennis Ball (Large/Extra Large). We got this as a couple of clients recommended it to me and it’s amazing! He never destroyed it (it’s still going strong although the colour has faded after being in the garden during summer) and he still carries it around proudly.
  • The Roolo by Play9 – we got ours from Paws in Earnest (code BOSCHPUPS for a Discount) and oh boy it’s such a hit! Finally a big treat dispenser toy that is quiet (if you look for a quieter alternative to the Kong Wobbler) that is soft, big enough and bouncy. Big big fave!!
  • This boy likes to get cosy, so Hoodies are a MUST! We especially love the ones from Spark Paws and I say we as they come as a matchy matchy item for humans too (and yes of course the big boy and I wear matching hoodies and outfits). Big A has quite a few of their Hoodies, Onesies and even the flashy gold chain and A glittery pendant (big favourite of mine haha). Our favourite Hoodie and the one pictured is the Cyber Punk one.
  • Tug-E-Nuff Big Twizzler strong dog tug toy (with fake fur!). Code BULLYCO for a Discount on your first order.
  • Whilst a Muzzle is probably a weird choice to put on here but as Big A falls under the UK XL Bully Ban (he’s of course exempt) he has to wear a muzzle. The Muzzle Movement muzzle was a game changer! It’s so comfy that he doesn’t mind and the colours can be chosen to look super friendly too (helps so much to remove the stigma). So, a muzzle is a big thing for us (as it is for all the owners whose doggies either fall under the ban or use a muzzle for different other reasons) and every dog deserves to wear a well-fitting muzzle that doesn’t restrict or limit. As a dog trainer specialising Bully Breeds (and rescue dogs), I partnered with The Muzzle Movement and you can use code BULLYCO for a discount – they also have Hoodies and more that advocate for removing the stigma around muzzled dogs: muzzled dogs are good dogs too! We use size Harry but please do measure your dog for an optimal fit!
  • Any silicone slow feeders – seriously, he loves them so much and carries them around and collects all the bowls from his doggy siblings. We get ours usually from small local shops like Woodys Natural Treats, the Spoilt Doggy and others.
  • Kong Air Squeaker Tennis Balls – hands down my favourite item to carry for recall too (or the Tug-E-Nuff rabbit pocket squeaker for the not so ball crazy dogs!)! Whilst they are not as long lasting as the Squeezz Balls, their squeak is so enticing to my dogs and lots of clients dogs. Even Chalkie (my deaf dog) looooves to squeak them (don’t ask me why or how haha. I think it’s like a doggy chewing gum to him hahaha).
  • A West Paw Toppl XL filled with food and all the delicious toppings!

I also decided to add some of my favourites (dog mom and dog trainer) that can make great gifts for any dog guardian, dog moms, doggy day care owners, dog walkers, in short, dog lovers.

Dog Mom and Dog Trainer’s Favourites

From left to right, starting at the top

  • No Fuss FillÂŽ Enrichment Toy Filler – AMAZING for mess-free filling of enrichment toys!! Honestly such a game changer and now also available as an eco-version. If you have, like me, multiple dogs or like to prep different lick mats and pop them in the fridge or freezer, the No Fuss Ready Rak ÂŽ is amazing too as it allows you to store up to 4 lick mats without any mess. I don’t have a discount code but you can use this referral link to save 10%.
  • StoppleÂŽ – Stand & Plug for Enrichment Toys by Paws in Earnest (Code BOSCHPUPS for a discount). If you are annoyed by the mess of trying to fill a Kong (or any other enrichment toy) and the liquids pouring out all over your working surface or the toy moving around in your fridge or freezer, then this is a MUST HAVE for you! Seriously life saver! It comes in 2 sizes and different colours and fits most popular dog enrichment toys like Kong, Sodapup etc.
  • The Pittie Clothing PJ’s and matching outfits for humans and dogs are a big must be on my Christmas list! We use their collars and have matching PJ’s (the rainbow ones are our faves) and some doggy onesies too. I had mine since years and they’re still impeccable! Great quality and now they come with ‘Pitties’ and hearts and matching doggy outfits that read ‘mom’. Gosh. Could it get any cuter?? And the best thing? It fits our barrel chested bullies. They don’t ship to the UK anymore unfortunately but if you’re in the States -my absolute recommendation. And they support shelters!

  • Another Paws in Earnest enrichment prep life safer is the The StoppleÂŽ for TopplÂŽ to prevent liquids spilling out of your West Paw Toppl. They also come for the West Paw Rumbl! Please remove the StoppleÂŽ before giving it. toyour dog! You can use Code BOSCHPUPS for a discount at Paws in Earnest (and yes, they also sell Toppls).
  • Here are two more Paws in Earnest favourites (yes, they are an amazing small business and we love them!): The RYLO invented by Paws in Earnest, the Instagram Handle – Chopping Board for all the fellow dog moms out there obsessed with making cute dog enrichment bowls and the Wobble Stopper – Enrichment Stand. The Wobble Stopper does what it says – prevent your enrichment toys from wobbling about during prep or taking great pics for insta (ever tried to photograph a fully filled and stocked Toppl on a table? Yes? Then you know what I mean haha) and also works for toys like the Snoop or the Lickimat Wobble. You can use for all the Paws in Earnest products our discount Code BOSCHPUPS.
  • A double-ended training lead! My go to! I love them for my own dogs and for my dog training clients. We use the Bully Billows one and we have been using them for years – they’re great quality and super handy. And they come in really cute colours like pink but also toned down like navy and more.
  • The Brightkins Coffee Cup Treat Holder – cause how freakin cute is this please?
  • For taking prepped enrichment toys on the go, we use the No Fuss Prep ‘n’ Go bags. It’s an eco-friendly bag that fits popular enrichment toys (it’s also really roomy!) or can be used to store your dog’s kibble, treats, and food securely. It’s washable and can be reused. So no single use plastic bags needed anymore. I don’t have a discount code but you can use this referral link to save 10%.
