Christmas is less than a week away, which means it's time to buy any last-minute gifts. For many of us, including the Drummond kids, that means gifts for parents, gifts for sisters, and gifts for brothers. In Alex's case, that includes gifts for a very special family member: her dog George! Alex and her husband Mauricio adopted their sweet golden retriever puppy, who just celebrated his first birthday, after New Year's Day of this year. It's his first Christmas as a Drummond dog and Alex is making it a special one!
Alex's festive decorations—like this life-sized Christmas golden retriever—and the many perfectly wrapped gifts under her tree show how Ree's eldest daughter has taken after her mom and her love of the holidays. Alex shared to her Instagram story Monday night that she finally finished wrapping presents, including a few for George. She posted a photo of the piles of presents followed by another one of three stockings hanging from the mantle. "And don't worry we got some goodies for George too," she captioned the second photo, which shows George's Christmas stocking stuffed to the brim with toys.
We found one of his stocking stuffers: this adorable Huxley & Kent "Nice" Hot Cocoa Mug Dog Toy. It's only $12 on BaxterBoo.com and can be shipped the same day for orders placed before 3 p.m. The hot cocoa mug-shaped plushie is embroidered with the words "Naughty" and "Nice" on the front and back, and it's the perfect gift for any fur baby. The squeaky toy comes in a festive black and red buffalo plaid pattern that matches the Christmas aesthetic perfectly. It's complete with a little white marshmallow at the top, so even the family pet can join in on a round of hot cocoa this Christmas.
All dog owners know how fast a pup can turn to the "naughty" side and destroy toys, beds, clothes, and furniture in the blink of an eye. Luckily, this toy is made using a technology where it's soft to the touch but tough at its core, thanks to an extra layer of durable mesh that's fused on the inside. To double down on the durability, each seam is reinforced using nylon seam tape so your pup can chew to his heart's content. Best of all, it's machine-washable and made of non-toxic materials.
So if you're hoping to make your dog's Christmas morning just as paw-fect as George's, add the whimsical chew toy to your cart. There are lots of dog Christmas stockings and stocking stuffers below for even more howl-iday fun!
