[UPDATED JUNE 2020]
Are you looking for a great gift for a Dog Dad? Well, you’re in luck. I have put together a list of gifts for Dog Dads, that any father of a fur-child will appreciate and love!
Dog Dads are one of a kind and they deserve some recognition too! Being a Dog Dad is hard work and challenging at times, but any Dog Dad will agree that it is very rewarding.
Dogs aren’t called man’s best friend for no reason, they spend an endless amount of time with their dogs, caring for them, playing fetch, picking up their poop, taking them to the vet, and walking them rain or shine!
It’s time to show the Dog Dad in your life just how much you appreciate him, and how much man’s best friend appreciates him. You’ll be sure to find something for every type of Dog Dad out there, from the great selection of gifts below.
These gifts are great any time of the year, not just for Father’s Day, but Holidays, Birthdays, or just because.
Gifts For Dog Dads [My Top 10 Picks]
Men can be hard to shop for, but when you have a man that is also a dog owner, shopping is a little easier. After all, he loves his dog and will do anything to make his dog happy, so getting him a dog-related gift is a great choice.
Chances are he has tons of cute pictures and funny stories about his dog that he loves to show and tell to anyone. Dog Dads take pride in their dogs and will appreciate any gift that makes life easier for them as well as their furry best friend.
The following is a list of 10 great finds, perfect for any Dog Dad.
1. FitBark GPS All-In-One Dog Health And Location Tracker
[For The Health Minded Dog Dad]
FitBark GPS is an all-in-one dog health and location tracker. FitBark has been around for years and just recently at the end of 2019 launched its GPS tracker to the U.S. market only.
If you live in the U.S. you can now track your dog’s location along with your dog’s activity and rest patterns.
If you’re familiar with the FitBark2 which is available worldwide, you know how great it is at tracking your dog’s activity and monitoring your dog’s health. The GPS version takes it one step further by also letting you know where your dog is at all times.
This is a great gift for any Dog Dad who wants to keep his dog as healthy as possible, and if he owns a Fitbit, he can get healthy right alongside his dog.

Thanks for sharing this particular review, I have been thinking of getting a surprise gift for a friend who has a dog and he cares for this dog so much. I think buying him the FitBark GPS All-In-One Dog Health And Location Tracker or the matching dog and owner shirt will be nice.
You did a great job of explaining various gifts that can help a dog-loving man to maintain a healthy relationship with his dog whether he is around or he is away.
I’m glad you enjoyed this list of gifts for Dog Dads. It is nice of you to want to surprise your friend, and I think he’ll really appreciate any one of these gifts. FitBark GPS is a great idea because it will allow your friend to monitor how healthy his dog is and know his whereabouts at all times. The matching outfits would be cute too.
Thanks for stopping by and your friend is lucky to have such a thoughtful friend in you.
