DIY pet toys for Christmas
Christmas is a wonderful time of year when we get to spend time with our families and see their faces when we give them our presents – which we always hope is a good reaction.
So, naturally, we want to include our pets in our Christmas celebrations. And let’s be honest, half the fun is in watching them unwrap their gifts!
Giving your dog a present doesn’t have to cost the earth – in fact, we have some great presents that you can make on a tiny budget that your pets will love.
