An advent calendar for your dog? This winter, humans will have so many advent calendars to choose from — featuring cheese, booze, socks, Harry Potter figurines and more — that it only seems fair to make sure your canine companions get a special treat every day, too.
In fact, it’s going to be easier than ever this holiday season. As Delish reported, Trader Joe’s announced on an episode of their podcast Inside Trader Joe’s that they’re adding a treat-filled advent calendar for dogs to their holiday offerings. There are no details yet on what the advent calendar will look like or what types of treats will be included, but we know TJ’s won’t disappoint.
While we’re waiting for the big reveal, we decided to see what other doggie advent calendars on the market … and now we know why the pet industry has tripled in the past three decades to a whopping 69 billion dollar industry. (Yes, billion.) But, if you’re looking for a new way to include your favorite furry companion in your holiday celebrations, check out these advent calendars for your dog.
