Bramley / Digby
Treat both Dog and Mum with matching Bramley crackers.
A relax and restore bubble bath will keep Mum feeling calm and cosy, while the Digby dog cracker includes a gentle dog wash so Pup gets a little pamper too. The Digby Dog wash is made with natural ingredients and gentle essential oils… and smells divine!
It’s a sweet, beautifully packaged duo that makes Christmas morning feel extra special.
Custom Paw Print Jewellery
Custom Paw Jewelry
You can create beautifully engraved pieces featuring your dog’s actual paw print, making each item genuinely personal. From necklaces to bracelets and other wearable keepsakes, there are plenty of options to suit different styles and budgets.
They strike a lovely balance between something stylish and something meaningful – perfect if you’re looking for a gift for a dog-loving Mum that really hits the mark.
I have two pieces from Custom Paw - a necklace engraved with my first dog (Oscar’s) paw print, and a bracelet engraved with both Oscar’s and Henry’s paw prints. These are two of my favourite pieces of jewellery and both feel so special to me.

A perfect choice for dog Mums who love showing off their four-legged best friend. My-Picture offers personalised pet prints or AI-generated portraits. Starting from just £4, without a frame, this is a thoughtful yet incredibly affordable Christmas gift.

I've placed a few orders with My-Picture this Christmas and found the whole process really simple. I'm planning to order our photo Christmas cards through them, and I’m also considering their photo books to combine our favourite dog pictures from the year. I've also created a personalised city map for Dog Dad with a pin marking where he proposed, a lovely touch.
