How to get your paws on our dog Advent Calendar:
- Subscription customers: You get early access to pre-order from the 19th of September – just log in to shop. We’ll add them to deliveries from the 9th of October onwards.
- Not a subscription customer? They’ll be available from the 9th of October on our one-off shop: shop.tails.com. We offer free delivery on orders over £30, so you’ll want to add some stocking stuffers too.
Create a festive dog gift box
From October onwards we’ll add a little extra sparkle to your subscription box, with a wintery design that works perfectly under the Christmas tree.
Here are some tips for transforming your box into a gift ready to be ripped open by your pup on Christmas morning:
- Get creative with ribbons, bows and gift tags
- Let the kids loose with crayons for extra customisation
- Or simply pop it under the tree right away!

Dog Christmas gift ideas
Let them know “It’s Christmaaaasss” with these dog-approved gifts.
The return of our bestselling festive dog toy
Keep your dog entertained all Christmas long with our popular festive toy, Jack Brussell.
- An exclusive collaboration with the toy experts at Beco
- Double stitched to last
- Squeaker for added excitement
- Stuffed with recycled materials
Way more fun than a tray of toasted Brussels sprouts (and much more of a crowd-pleaser).
You can add Jack Brussell to your next box from the 19th of September or purchase him on shop.tails.com from the 9th of October.
Dinner is served
The best part of Christmas? Apart from the gifts… it’s got to be dinner time!
Gift them something delicious and nutritious with our Optimum Wet Food. 5 meaty pates, developed by experts using high-quality ingredients and slow cooked for ultimate enjoyment.
Serve them alongside your own turkey dinner, as an unbeatable kibble topper or spread on a LickiMat for longer-lasting fun.
How to add wet food to your order:
- New to wet food? Check your feeding plan via the menu in your dashboard and add wet food to your box in a few simple steps.
- If your dog already enjoys wet food in their monthly box, you can view or change their selection on your dashboard, just visit the feeding plan page.
- Not got your dog a personalised feeding plan yet? That’s ok, you can sign up here. Or simply buy them a festive pate selection from our one-off shop: shop.tails.com.
