Sweethoots Handmade Hats

Crochet Dog Hats ($18) make a great Valentine’s Day gift. This one shouts, “Sweetheart, Be Mine” and I dare you to look at the entire photo gallery of doggie bonnets and try not to laugh. Can’t be done! Choices range from Little Sailor Girl with a big red bow to a green Star Wars Yoda dog hat. There are big frog eyes hats, Shrek pet hats and gnome hats. Too funny and too adorable for words. You must go take a peek. All hats are made to order. Check them out on Facebook at Sweethoots.

Shorty’s All Natural Valentine’s Day Gift Basket

Treat your lovebug to treats. Shorty’s “Lots of Love” Gift Baskets ($25) come with 12 carob dipped hearts, six Valentine pretzels, six little bit of romance sandwich cookies, six mini hanging hearts and six big smooch lip cookies. All doggie treats are decorated with yogurt or carob and natural veggie food coloring — no salt, sugar, artificial colors or flavors, no byproducts nor preservatives. The pet treats baskets come vacuum-sealed and certified by the Health Department of California. All dog treat gift baskets are made to order and shipped out pronto to lock in freshness.

Dreamz Trundle 3-Way Pet Bed

Dreamz Trundle 3-Way Pet Bed ($35 and up) is an all-in-one snuggly wuggly doggie bed. Try the Tiger Dreamz or other patterns in many colors — beds, mats, crate pads, throws and blankets available on Amazon. The throws are sized to fit most crates. This is a great Valentine’s Day gift for pets who love to burrow or cuddle. The fabric furniture can be bunched up as a nest, laid out like a tunnel, or stretched flat like a mat. Tiger Dreamz products are machine washable in warm or cool water, dryer safe but don’t use heat. Air or line dry to keep the fur beautiful. Available at favoritepetproducts.com.
