Gifts for Dog Owners Who Have Everything
Some people are impossible to buy for. They have the good coffee machine, the nice candles, the cashmere. If they also have a dog, though, there is a way in: the thing they love most that they would never think to buy for. Here are gifts for dog owners who have everything, starting with the one they cannot already own.
Christmas timing for canvases: order by December 1, 2026 for delivery by Christmas in the contiguous US. Every canvas is made to order, so this date comes earlier than for our treats.
1. A portrait of their dog in a room they would love to live in
Most people who have everything have a photo of their dog on their phone and nothing on the wall. A custom dog portrait changes that. At L’Atelier, their dog is placed into an original scene and printed on canvas: a painting-style portrait, framed or frameless, that looks at home among good furniture.
Choose the scene the way you would choose a hotel for them:
- For the one who loves grand old rooms: La Cour, with a gilded gallery, a marble staircase and a palace garden.
- For the one who would rather be in Paris: La Capitale, from a pastry shop counter to a balcony over the rooftops.
- For the one who lives for summer: La Riviera, with a lunch table by the sea, a rock pool and a boardwalk of beach cabins.
- For the one who escapes to the country: L’Escapade, with a lavender road, a vineyard and a mountain chalet.
- For the one with an idea of their own: Le Sur-Mesure builds a scene from a brief, for 1 dog or 2.
How it works: choose a scene, send at least 2 photos of the dog, and we place them into it. You see a proof within 24 to 48 hours and can ask for as many changes as you like. The canvas is printed in the USA, framed or frameless, and ships free to the contiguous US.
2. Something the dog will notice
The dog does not care about cashmere. A box of handmade dog macarons or the Christmas treats box is the gift the dog thanks you for. Made in small batches from human-grade ingredients, and packed in boxes good enough to put under the tree.
3. A December ritual
The dog treats advent calendar turns December into a morning routine: 24 windows, 24 handmade treats. People who have everything rarely have one for the dog.
4. Something they will use every day
A croc leather collar and matching leash replace the nylon set they have been meaning to upgrade for years.
5. A gift that keeps arriving
A Dog Macaron Club subscription sends treats through the year. It suits someone who has everything, because it is gone before it can clutter anything.
How to choose
- The closest friend or family member: the portrait. It is the most personal gift on this list.
- A colleague or a neighbor: a treat box or the advent calendar.
- Someone you see every week at the dog park: a plush toy and a box of macarons.
