Christmas gifts for dog owners: personalised ideas that actually get used
Looking for 2026 order-by dates and the full current range? See Christmas gifts for dog owners in Australia, 2026.
Most dog-themed Christmas presents end up in a drawer. A bowl with the dog’s name on it gets used twice a day. This guide covers what to choose, how long made-to-order gifts take, and when to order if you’re in Australia.
Gift ideas, from small to bigger
- A named stainless steel bowl, 18 oz (about 532 ml). Suits most small and medium dogs, and cats. A$69.95 including delivery and GST.
- A named bowl, 32 oz (about 946 ml). For bigger meals or a water bowl. A$84.95 including delivery and GST.
- A named mug, 11 oz. For the owner, with the pet’s name on it. A$59.95 including delivery and GST.
- A wooden ornament. A hinoki wood ornament with their name, in six shapes. A$54.95 including delivery and GST.
- A typographic name print, 21 × 30 cm. A wall print of the pet’s name in the same lettering, for the owner rather than the dog. A$44.95 including delivery and GST.
Prices are in Australian dollars and include GST and delivery within Australia.
When to order for Christmas
Everything is printed after you order and then shipped. We estimate 1–3 weeks for bowls and ornaments and 2–4 weeks for collars, prints and mugs. We have not shipped a sample yet, so those are estimates, not promises. December post is slower everywhere. We suggest ordering by 30 November to give yourself room (our estimate), or by 10 December for named bowls and wooden ornaments, and earlier if the gift is going to a fixed date. We can’t promise a Christmas delivery date, because the courier controls the last leg. See delivery.
Getting the name right
- Ask a family member how the dog’s name is spelled if you’re not sure. We print exactly what you type, up to 16 characters.
- Short names look bolder. Longer names still fit, at a smaller size.
- Not sure of the bowl size? The size guide compares both using Printful’s official measurements.
Gifting it to someone else
At checkout, enter the recipient’s delivery address. If you want a gift note, email us after ordering at pitchandpanel@gmail.com and we’ll tell you honestly whether it can be included for that order.
What we won’t claim
We’re a new shop and don’t have reviews to show yet, and we won’t invent any. Photos with names on them are illustrative previews on Printful’s photos of the blank products.
