Just as a note: I don't expect a bunch of things for each. Really, Summer will only want food (which she can share with the others) and Mia will only want food and maybe a pack of kong x-small squeaker tennis balls. Hank will be the most fun to buy for because he likes everything. :)

They ALL like chews though.

Dog's Name: Mia
Dog's Breed: Papillon
Collar Size: 8-10" (around there), the thinner the better
Favourite Treat: Soft treats preferred. Also like chews- bully sticks, Himalayan chews, etc.
Favourite Toy: kong x small squeaker tennis balls (she's very picky about it being SPECIFICALLY that). Also likes small fur tug type deals.
Treats they cannot have: don't like antlers or hard baked type treats. Nothing from China please. No rawhides
Toys they won't use: anything other than a kong x small squeaker or a real fur tug. No rubber or plastic or non squeaky tennis ball.
Anything else!:

Dog's Name: Summer
Dog's Breed: Papillon
Collar Size: 8-10" (around there), the thinner the better
Favourite Treat: Soft treats preferred. Also like chews- bully sticks, Himalayan chews, etc.
Favourite Toy: Does not like toys
Treats they cannot have: don't like antlers or hard baked type treats. Nothing from China please. No rawhides
Toys they won't use: all toys
Anything else!:

Clothing Size for both Papillons:
Mia: shoulder to butt is around 14" Summer: Same. 14"
leg length: Mia: around 7" ? She's 10.5" at the withers. Summer: 6" or so. She's 9.5 at the withers
chest size:Mia: 14" Summer: 14"
neck size: Mia: around 9" (usually wears 3/8ths" collar. No bigger than 3/4ths") Summer: 9.5" (usually wears same collars as Mia. She pulls off bigger collars better)

Dog's Name: Hank
Dog's Breed: Cattlerat? Rattledog? Spotty Dog?
Collar Size: neck is 11" around at the moment. Does best with 3/4" to 1" collars
Favourite Treat: All BUT we are having gassy dog problems so trying to limit him to simple ingredient treats. Preferably something that is 100% meat like freeze dried beef or something like that. He does get chews and will chew anything.
Favourite Toy: All. Anything that squeaks. Any ball that squeaks. Kongs, soft Frisbees, fleece tugs, loves fur tugs, likes big toys he can push around, Really likes toys that are soft though vs hard plastic. He is not that rough on toys except fur toys so no worries about him shredding things right off the bat. His favorite toys are probably Mia's kong x small squeakers.
Treats they cannot have: nothing from China. Again, preferably nothing with a lot of weird ingredients. No rawhides or antlers.
Toys they won't use: So far he likes everything
Anything else!:

I don't know Hank's clothing size but I would probably not recommend buying clothes. I feel like he'll destroy them and also he's weird shaped. LOL

Your favourite colour(s): Blue or teal
foodstuff you do not like (for humans!): tomatoes. Don't send me a tomato. lol

Dog's Name: Elsie!
Dog's Breed: Belgian Tervuren
Collar Size: 14 inches
Favourite Treat: Dried meat of any kind.
Favourite Toy: All of them--she loves balls, stuffies, frisbees... she's hard on toys though.
Treats they cannot have: Rawhide (she swallows chunks), and anything with food dye or BHA.
Toys they won't use: She'll play with anything, haha.
Anything else!: Right now she doesn't have any puzzle toys, but I've been interested in getting her some. She doesn't really wear clothing. We hike a lot and do obedience, so things relating to those activities are always welcome. I have small hands, so I prefer thinner leashes to thicker ones.

Clothing Size
Back length: 22 inches.
leg length: 22 inches.
chest size: 27 inches.
neck size: 14 inches.

Dog's Name: Zobby!
Dog's Breed: Peke/bully mix
Collar Size: 12 inches
Favourite Treat: Dried meat of any kind and bully sticks/other long-term chews.
Favourite Toy: Soft toys, and he's partial to the ones with crinkle paper inside that make that cellophane crunch sound.
Treats they cannot have: Rawhide (he also swallows chunks), and anything with food dye or BHA.
Toys they won't use: Stuff you chase.
Anything else!: Zobby loves chews and sweaters. He's a bolter and is hard on equipment, so harness/collars/leashes have to be sturdy to be safe. He does rally and hikes a lot, and his human has huge hands and prefers thick leashes to thinner ones.

Clothing Size
Back length: 14 inches.
leg length: 12 inches.
chest size: 22 inches.
neck size: 12 inches.

Your favourite colour(s): Orange and purple.
foodstuff you do not like (for humans!): Fish/seafood. Everything else is fair game.

ETA: For leg length I gave height at the withers.

Collar Size: Premiere martingale medium 10-16"

Yay! already browsing people's lists in case I get them LOL.

I'm including Wesley this year in case someone wants to get him a little something, but main dog is Feist and he can always just share treats. :)

Wesley
Dog's Breed: Standard Poodle
Favourite Treat: Pretty much anything that is food
Favourite Toy: Latex squeaky toys like those polka dotted pigs
Treats they cannot have: Nothing made in China

Feist
Dog's Breed: Border Collie
Collar Size: Her neck measures 12"
Favourite Treat: Any type of chews like bully sticks or hooves, soft treats
Favourite Toy: Anything, bonus if it's a tuggy and weather resistant. But really, she loves all her toys. Green squishy balls are a favorite, if that helps! (starmark kind)
Treats they cannot have: Nothing made in China, and she does not care for crunchy biscuit type treats
Toys they cannot have: Regular tennis ball type things. Those are on lock down and we already have millions. If it's a ball on a rope, that's great, just no plain chuckit or tennis type ones. And no hard plastic balls lol.

Dog's Name: Morgan
Dog's Breed: Labmutt
Collar Size: ~16 inches (generally "medium")
Favourite Treat: He has a fondness for peanut butter and pumpkin flavors. Granted, he will eat anything with great joy. No allergies.
Favourite Toy: Stuffies with squeakies, balls, and tugs are always a hit.
Treats they cannot have: I avoid treats made in China and rawhide chews.
Toys they won't use: Complex puzzle toys (ie: anything with sliders, caps, or doors to manipulate)
Anything else!: Despite not being fond of complex puzzle toys, he does enjoy simpler things like roll-around treat dispensers and egg babies. (He has the platypus egg baby and loves it.)
I mentioned this last year, but due to life and things I still haven't bought Morgan the reflective gear I've been eyeing. I'm definitely still interested in it, though, since Morgan is basically invisible in the dark and our new neighborhood does not have sidewalks for walking. I love the Hurtta Micro Vest in yellow, and I'm debating some leg bands, as well.

Clothing Size
Back length: ~25" from base-of-neck to base-of-tail
Leg length: ~23" tall at the shoulder
Chest size: ~26" around
Neck size: ~16"

Your favourite colour(s): Depends on the day. LOL! In general, I like bright, happy colors, and often in combination with each other. For Morgan, I tend default to blue on him, but I've certainly been known put him in all colors, too.
Foodstuff you do not like (for humans!): Not picky, and no allergies, either.


==========================
*Secret Santa-ing for the other pets is COMPLETELY optional!!!*
That said, I know many people like to know the whole animal household, so here ya go.

Cats: Whitacre & Ticheli (males)
Favourite Treat: Salmon jerky/dehydrated dog treats
Favourite Toy: Small stuffies (small enough to carry), "flirt pole" style chase toys. Also, Ticheli has an addiction with feathers. His brains would fall out with joy.
Treats/toys they cannot have: NO CATNIP, PLEASE!!! (Info on this below.)
Anything else!: We have sugar gliders and catnip is toxic to them. A lot of cat toys are treated with catnip, even if the label doesn't mention it. For this reason, we generally stick to small dog toys, ferret toys, homemade toys, or creatively repurposed household items for the cats.


Other Pets: As mentioned above, we have a colony of four sugar gliders, plus I am a cornsnake hobbyist with thirteen snakes. I'm fairly particular about what sorts of things the suggies can/can't have. And snakes are boring to shop for. :lol-sign:

Clothing Size: N/A
Anything else!: Her color is turquoise (more blue than green). Nicknames are "Squid" and "Squishy". She's an obedience junky and has really turned onto discs lately.

I like western-themed things for both of the ACD's. For Harlow, I tend to go for really feminine looking patterns. I've been doing a lot more leather lately, and prefer chocolate on everybody. We are running low on leashes since a few of mine got stolen. I like the rope convertibles ones, thin leather, or standard width thin biothane with 4' length preferred.

FOR EVERYONE--
Favourite Treat: Squishy treats, please. Crunchy stuff doesn't typically do much for them. Bully sticks and other chews are welcome.
Favourite Toy: Squeaky balls that are durable and do not have fuzz. Fuzzy tugs and those skineez types. We definitely need more tugs and our flirt pole toy is on it's last legs. Bumi's and Kongs are beloved as well as the Grinz tooth balls, surprisingly.
Treats they cannot have: Rider is allergic to grains, so please grain free. No rawhides as Harlow will get them all soggy and then try to swallow them whole.
Toys they won't use: No stuffies, please! I can't tell you how much I hate cleaning up stuffing around the house. Also, non-squeaky tennis balls will just sit around.

As far as human stuff goes: my favorite color is teal/turquoise or orange. I like chocolate and am not super picky about food. I've been really wanting Control Unleashed as well.

**sidenote** This winter I am revamping my joring system to accommodate more than one dog, harness color for Rider will be red and harness color for Harlow will be yellow.**

If you are stuck, here are a few ideas:
Hero Super Sonic 215~ Blem ~ Taffy ~ Variety
Rogz Grinz Treat Ball Dog Toy
Kong Wubba
Bodacious Bungee Bunny Bar Tug from Clean Run

Dog's Name: Harrison
Dog's Breed: Malinois
Collar Size: Still growing, but wearing an 18" collar on the next to last hole. He would love a nicer rolled leather collar or one that doesn't mess up his neck fur, I may decide to show him.
Favourite Treat: Anything. He's a food hound, and has a cast iron stomach.
Favourite Toy: Anything by Zanies, though I would prefer things as close to indestructible as possible, though with a Mal, that's tough. We would love a Jute or Linen tug :)

Treats they cannot have: Nothing from China, but other than that he really likes stinky treats, crawfish, liver, fresh Zukes, ect
Toys they won't use: He loves all toys, but I would prefer things that don't make a large amount of noise, mostly hard toys that clunk when dropped. Squeakers are okay, because they get murdered quickly.
Anything else!: His color is Red or Mahogany. If it's something leather, I prefer chocolate colored.

Clothing Size He really doesn't need clothing.
Back length:
leg length:
chest size:
neck size: 17ish?

Dog's Name: Indy
Dog's Breed: Dutch Shepherd
Collar Size: 17.5
Favourite Treat: Soft stinky treats, again, or freeze or dehydrated treats.
Favourite Toy: Soft squeaky toys. She loves to mouth them, and is gentle with them.
Treats they cannot have: Again, nothing from China obviously, but bison gives her gas :p
Toys they won't use: She doesn't care for harder toys, but she does like marrow bones. She'll also chew on antlers and bully sticks. Not a fan of puzzle toys, except ones that involve tennis or chuckit balls.
Anything else!: Her color is TARDIS Blue. Or bright yellow.

Clothing Size She has plenty of clothing, though she could use the large size Ruffwear jackets. The ones she has now are a tad too small for her. She gets cold pretty easily.
Back length:
leg length:
chest size:
neck size:


Your favourite colour(s): Blue, Grey, Dark Green.
foodstuff you do not like (for humans!): I'm extremely picky, so you're probably better off not getting me foodstuffs.

They both love chuckit stuff. Indy's pacifier is a glowball chuckit ball. We have that one and the recyclaball. I lost the whistler ball, and my chuckit isn't the right size for any of the cute ones like the alligator or the shark, though I wish it was. I covet those two lol. Chew toys, puzzle toys, and stuff for entertainment in the crate would be great. We've officially killed all our kongs, and we can only have the black kongs here. Reds get killed immediately. I would love a Kong kickball, or the indoor Kong stuff that soft and quiet for entertainment without pissing my roommate off because a Mal and a Dutch Shepherd in a room playing sounds like I'm training elephants for the circus :p

We also love cute tags from Etsy, and Harrison needs a tag with my phone number on it. I'd love one that says "Oh ****! I'm lost! on it because that still makes me laugh. Oz has a cool one that says "have your people call my people"

Planet Dog, Ruffwear, Kong, you can't go wrong, and we love regional treats. I still have some crawfish treats leftover from a gift thing, and the dogs think they're the BEST.

Also, anything on a rope or a tug toy would be the bomb. They do NOT like the monkey fist tug from Petsmart though. Unfortunately, and the others with the tennis balls on them they destroy the ball in about .5 seconds. I do NOT let them have regular tennis balls because teeth. Not even the regular Chuckit balls. Rubber, plastic, ect are fine, but the fuzzy ones no. And please for my sake, no Cuzzes. The squeaking kills my brain.

I'm just going to do Recon and Patton since Frag doesn't live here for half of the year. He has tons of things, he will be ok sharing. :)

Started filling this out and realized half of everything doesn't apply because I'm too simple, so I'll make it easier!

Recon - Red Border Collie
Colors are green/purple or red/white/blue.
16" neck - Cute collars are fine if they're to die for. 1" or 1.5" - slip, martingale, quick release, whatever! Tag like collars are cool.

Patton - Black and tan GSD
Colors are green/purple
18" neck - Usually wears a fur saver, cute collars are fine if they're to die for - 1.5" quick release.

They will both chew on anything and eat any treats with happiness & we do a lot of training! We like natural-ish and random/hard to find things. Even samples are neat! Would be open to leather for either of them - never tried it! We like any kind of toys, but they love balls and I love training stuff. Clickers are always getting lost and we like slip leads or dual purpose. Black/brown leather is fine or their colors for ropes. Thinner the better. We LOVE discs (hero) and fun floating toys for dock diving. Tugging stuff is gold here. "travel-y" stuff is always useful. No clothes, and I don't read, or have a dvd player, tv etc. to watch movies on.

I am only signing Muffin up:

Dog's Name: Muffin

Dog's Breed: Corgi

Collar Size: 15-16" he has an odd shaped head and neck. I tend to leave things loose on him at 16" but thinner stuff sometimes works better smaller at 15".

Favourite Treat: "soft chew" treats or bully sticks

Favourite Toy: Muff likes things that are soft: suffies, fleece tugs, etc. Nothing heavy or firm,

Treats they cannot have: No rawhide please! And we try to stick with things made from real ingredients.

Toys they won't use: Anything hard or firm like Nylabones. He's ok with rubbor if it has the softness of the senior kongs rubber.

Clothing Size: no clothes please, he's double coated already!

Anything else!: Muffin loves food more then he loves... well anything. haha.

Your favourite colour(s): I tend to like more earth tone colors, but I'm open to anything. We don't have any set colors in my house.

Foodstuff you do not like (for humans!): You don't have to send me anything, this is just for Muffin. :)
