Why focus on the dog and not the human when gifting? Well, our favorite gifts for dog lovers focus on both — but some people are just a bit more obsessed with dogs than others. We’ve all got an aunt whose life is dedicated to her fur baby, a best friend who lives and breathes for her lap dog, or a significant other who spends as much quality time with their pup as they do with the rest of the family. And it’s totally cool. In fact, we embrace our dog-crazy loved ones and respect that they treat Fido like a literal human with gifts, fancy meals and lots of love. We celebrate it and are so down to indulge their obsession with adorable gifts at the holidays.

From personalized portraits of their pet to chic collars, gifts for dog lovers runs the gamut. Ahead, check out these pawfect gifts for dog lovers that will scratch any dog lover’s itch. Warning, you are definitely going to want to snag some of these irresistible cute items for yourself too!
