Oh these silly alpacas on the farm! We just returned from a trip to a local alpaca farm and shop specializing in all things wooly wonderful. The sweaters, scarves, socks and mittens were so darling, and I found lovely gifts. Santa was there, an elf cradling a calm chicken brought smiles, and the prettiest Dalmatian with a festive red bow (why didn’t I snap photos!?!) greeted us all. Learning about the alpacas today was rather eye opening, and it turns out my husband is relieved I won’t be opening my own sanctuary. Hahahaha. I’m only half joking. Ridiculous Tweets, Pet Quotes & Furry Baby Gifts will bring smiles and whimsy.

Sweet Furry Baby Gifts for All Year Long
Smart stocking stuffer?
I have seen this pet hair removal tool everywhere, and I think it must be the perfect alternative to all those masking tape roller things that create waste!

Since sherpa and boucle everything is still everywhere in design right now, I guess it is also destined to show up everywhere for pet stuff.

Here’s a few more fuzzy wuzzy lovely finds shared in the past:

Honoring Our Pets Who Live a Short Time
In the last couple of seasons, pet portraits was my theme for gifts for family, and a favorite is was this one (created by Minted) of Eve:
![Pit bull watercolor custom pet portrait from minted - Hello Lovely Studio. #pitbullpainting #petpaintings #petwatercolors](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/custom-pet-portrait-minted-eve-1.jpg)
The portrait started out with a photo I snapped of her:

I also commissioned a portrait of our eldest son’s rescue Moosh:
![Custom Minted Watercolor Pet Portrait of gray cat with green and lavender background - Hello Lovely Studio.](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Mushu-November-2022-Minted-watercolor-1440x1800.jpg)
He was a rescue with special needs and has come such a long way! We adopted Bella when she was a puppy, and her health remained so perfect that I had no experience with vet appointments and the issues our kids address with their animals.
![](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Bella-Luna-puppy.jpg)
She brought so much goodness, unconditional love, and joy to our home that it changed us forever. Our hearts are forever grateful for that sweet creature who left a mark.
![Michele of Hello Lovely Studio holding Bella Luna in her French Country kitchen - Hello Lovely Studio.](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/hello-lovely-studio-bella-luna.jpg)
Artist Cindy Redman (Cindy Austin) painted this oil of her that we cherish:
![Oil panting of Bella Luna by Cindy Austin](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Bella-Luna-by-Cindy-Redman.jpg)
With the stress that seems to go along with modern life, pets offer a soothing presence and companionship to so many.
![Michele and Bella in a serene living room with Belgian linen - Hello Lovely Studio.](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/michele-and-bella-hello-lovely-studio.jpg)
You may recall how a reader became angry with me in the past about me singing the praises of animals. She believes we somehow devalue the sacredness of human life by honoring them.
![Michele and her fur baby Bella in the kitchen - Hello Lovely Studio.](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/00001-hello-lovely-studio-french-country-kitchen-9.jpg)
But I have a different perspective. What a blessing they are. I am actually deeply grateful for how animals point me to unconditional love and the majesty of the natural world

Favorite Pretty Pup
Here’s the pretty pittie girlie as a pup. She has grown a lot bigger since the photo but still thinks she is little and loves to sit on my lap.

I snapped these in our former backyard, and she is crazy about our new one where she loves to fetch.

![Rescue puppy mixed breed - Hello Lovely Studio.](https://www.hellolovelystudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/puppy-hello-lovely-studio-009.jpg)
She loves helping with everything and anything in the kitchen (if watching cookies baking in the oven counts as “help”).

A Donut Bed

Bath Towels
Our family dog (a lhasa) in the 80s looked exactly like the fluffy teddy bear pup with the dark mask below!

Who Loves Mama?
This hoodie looks so comfy cozy for pups who get chilly, and the message on the back will make the rest of the family so jealous!
![Howstar Pet Clothes, Puppy Hoodie Sweater Dog Coat Warm Sweatshirt Love My Mom Printed Shirt (S, Gray)](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/71neWoUZAcL._UX679_.jpg)
Seat Protector
We have always lived with non-shedding dogs so a smart cover like this wasn’t necessary – but if your pet sheds and loves car rides…so smart!
![Protective Front Seat Cover for Pets](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/91joi1Th-hL._SL1500_.jpg)

Anxiety Reducer
Have you seen these behavioral aid toys designed to reduce anxiety and offer your pup a warm body to sleep with? Meant to imitate the nurturing feel of a mama dog, they come with a heart-shaped ticker that heats up and emits a pulsating beat mimicing a beating heart. Pure comfort and perfect for thunderstorms, fireworks, and scary occasions.
Grooming Tools
With a firm, stainless steel edge, this tool penetrates the topcoat and gently removes loose hair. Easy to use — just comb through the hair to grab your pet’s fur, then press the easy FURejector button to release it.

Paw Protection
Of this Musher’s Secret, one reviewer on Amazon raved, “I purchased three more containers today for my dog to give out as Christmas presents to her friends. It is that good.”

Healthier Eating
Sometimes a slow feed dog bowl is just what you need to encourage an overzealous fur baby to eat slowly, improving digestion and reducing bloating. In addition to portion control, it provides a little puzzle for dogs to solve, keeping that sweet brain engaged while they feast.
For Tough Stains

Twinkling Safely
There are five color options, and Amazon customers seem to be obsessed with this light-up collar, given the 3,400+ raving reviews. I guess it is the product’s ability to glow brightly and keep your dog safe from vehicles. It is a fully adjustable collar which can be worn as one solid light or set to blinking mode.
Natural & Fragrant
Here’s a shampoo with detangler made with delicious natural scents such as eucalyptus and peppermint, oatmeal and aloe, mango, rosemary, tea tree, and sweet orange oil.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for enjoying this post. It’s a pleasure to have you here, and I am sending warm holiday wishes to you and yours. 🙂
I love seeing a sweet pittie pup. Our daughter and husband have two pitbulls and they’ve taught us so much about that breed. We had no idea how sweet, calm and loyal they are. Our grand daughter is well loved by these tolerant and adoring pups and they are a joy to be with.
Author
Oh – I totally can relate about learning about the breed. Eve is such a joy and a sweet addition to our family. She truly is my little helper in the kitchen since we have no grandchildren. Hahahaha. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Don’t ever apologize for loving or adoring your pets. I love reading about yours and the hilarious quotes. I have always had a dog , my last love said goodbye about a year ago. Will be shopping for a new little Daschund this spring…. can hardly wait.
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and much love, peace and joy in 2024

Thanks for that. What fun it will be to have a pup join the family in spring. Merry Christmas to you and yours. xox
I am a cat person, but this was a lovely post for dog lovers.

Thanks for reading about the doggies! We can’t have enough cat posts as far as I’m concerned…time to research. 🙂
