The holidays are a magical time for everyone, but for Doodle moms, Christmas holds an extra layer of excitement. From festive photoshoots to finding the perfect gifts for our fluffy family members, Doodle moms know how to celebrate with flair. If you’re a proud Doodle mom, or know someone who is, here’s a peek into the festive ways these dedicated dog parents make the holiday season extra special for their four-legged friends.
1. Holiday Photoshoots with Doodles
Christmas isn’t complete without a holiday-themed photoshoot featuring our Doodles in adorable costumes! Whether it’s Santa hats, reindeer antlers, or cozy Christmas sweaters, Doodle moms get creative with backdrops and props to capture festive portraits. Some Doodles even get their own Instagram holiday series, starring as Santa’s little helper or as the family’s favorite “reindoodle.”
2. Decorating with Doodle-Friendly Touches
When it comes to decorating, Doodle moms make sure everything is pet-friendly. From Doodle-proof ornaments (avoiding breakables!) to stockings hung up high, they create a festive atmosphere that’s safe and fun. Many Doodle moms hang personalized stockings for their pups, filled with treats, toys, and maybe even a new leash or collar. Some even go as far as having a dog-friendly mini tree with edible ornaments or soft, chewable decorations.
3. Baking Homemade Doodle Treats
Christmas cookies aren’t just for humans! Doodle moms love to make holiday-themed treats that their pups can enjoy. From peanut butter snowballs to dog-safe gingerbread, these homemade goodies are prepared with love and often feature festive shapes like trees, bones, and snowflakes. Baking together becomes a family tradition, with Doodles patiently watching (and maybe taste-testing) as treats come out of the oven.
4. Attending Holiday Events and Pet-Friendly Parades
Many cities host holiday parades, pet-friendly markets, or light displays where Doodle moms love to bring their pups along. Wrapped in cozy sweaters or light-up collars, Doodles become part of the holiday festivities. Some Doodle moms even arrange meet-ups with other Doodle owners, celebrating the season as a community with dog-friendly holiday parties or group photoshoots.
5. Giving Back with Doodles in Mind
The Christmas season is also about giving back, and many Doodle moms involve their pups in charity activities. They might participate in pet charity events, donate to local shelters, or even organize toy drives with fellow Doodle owners. Some even dress their Doodles up as Santa’s helpers and visit nursing homes or hospitals, spreading joy to those in need with the help of their lovable, fluffy companions.
6. Shopping for the Best Doodle Gifts
Doodle moms know the holidays are a time for gift-giving, and our Doodles are definitely on the nice list! From new toys and cozy beds to grooming kits and pet-safe advent calendars, Doodle moms go all out to find presents that make their pups feel special. Many Doodle moms support small businesses by buying unique, handmade items or holiday-themed accessories that showcase their love for the breed.
7. Cozy Christmas Movie Nights with Doodles
One of the best parts of Christmas for Doodle moms is snuggling up with their furry friends for a Christmas movie marathon. Wrapped up in festive blankets, they spend chilly winter nights watching holiday classics, with their Doodles nestled close by. With a hot cocoa for mom and a pup-friendly treat for the Doodle, it’s a simple but heartwarming way to celebrate the season.
8. Sharing Christmas Cards Starring Their Doodles
Christmas cards featuring family members, Doodles included, are a hallmark of the season. Doodle moms often go the extra mile to create personalized holiday cards with a cute or humorous theme. Doodles wearing Christmas hats or posing by the tree make for adorable cards, which are a hit with friends and family.
9. Making Doodle-Safe Hot Cocoa and Warm Treats
When it’s time to warm up, some Doodle moms whip up Doodle-safe “hot cocoa” (made with dog-friendly ingredients like warm broth or goat milk) so their pups can enjoy a cozy drink alongside them. Paired with a holiday treat, this ritual adds an extra layer of fun and warmth to the season for both pup and parent.
10. Ending the Day with Doodle Cuddles by the Fire
After a day full of holiday activities, Doodle moms love winding down by the fire with their pup curled up at their feet. With holiday lights twinkling and Christmas music in the background, these quiet, cozy moments are what make Christmas with a Doodle truly special.
For Doodle moms, Christmas is all about creating memories and traditions that include their beloved four-legged family members. With a little bit of fluff and a lot of love, Doodle moms make the holidays unforgettable for everyone in their family.
