This time the top 10 list is coming from our friends at K9 Magazine. I figured with 3 shopping days left, it is not too late to get a great gift for your furry friends. Even if you get the gift a little late... they won't mind.
According to the American Pet Products Association, the pet-gift industry has grown from $28.5 billion in 2001 to $47.7 billion this year and according to an American Express poll, 31% of consumers will purchase a gift for their pet.
There are some fun gifts on this list, a couple I wouldn't mind having myself! Enjoy the Top 10 Pet Gifts:
1. Canine Twitterer: Dogs can tweet, too. This tag from Hammacher Schlemmer lets a canine share its thoughts with followers on Twitter via a motion sensor and microphone in the tag that interprets activity and sends one of 500 pre-loaded Tweets.
2. Pet Bandanna: "Doo" rags. Pet bandannas with Velcro fastener from Marathon Mfg./Prestige Line come in 17 color choices to match any fur coat.
