Dog Bookends - The Perfect Gift for the Dog Lover in Your Life
Dog Bookends - they're dog-gone (sorry...) cool and a great Christmas present!
I ran across a set of dog bookends at a local craft store recently and thought they'd be a great Christmas gift for a dog lover (like me!). Adding a bit of class and a bit of laughter to the bookshelf, dog bookends may feature a Dauschund, a Terrier or about any other dog breed.
Personalize your Christmas gift for a dog lover by adding a few appropriate books to the gift such as:

Breed specific dog bookends
As I mentioned, there's about every type of dog breed represented when it comes to dog bookends. I personally like the more generic dogs but these are pretty cool too:

I HAVE to put in links to rescue groups...
Those of you who have followed any of my ramblings know that I'm currently owned by 4 rescued dogs and 1 confused rescue cat (he thinks he's a dog). So, since you're here looking at dog bookends, ostensibly to order for Christmas presents , how about visiting some of the notable dog rescue groups around?
- Labrador Retriever rescue
A lot of labs end up in rescue through no fault of their own - they are, by nature, a rambunctious pup, usually and labs can stay in that puppy stage for 2-4 years. People need to know a dog's characteristics before they get one! - Scottish Terrier Club of America
You can't go wrong with a breed-specific rescue club endorsed by the National breed organization. - Dachsund rescue
Dachshunds need rescuing too!
Labrador Retriever Dog Bookends
I think these Labs look more serious than their normal, live, goofy counterparts, but maybe they're just looking smart. Whatever they're looking, I think they're beautiful.
I think dogs are the most amazing creatures; they give unconditional love. For me they are the role model for being alive.
~Gilda Radner
Buying your dog lover friend a few books to place inside those book ends is a good idea - Obedience books are always welcomed.
I used to take my Australian Shepherd, Killian, to Vermont once a year for an intense week long training session. I always brought along a book or two to help us advance. I've read all of the below books and loved each one. Grab one or two and give them to your Christmas gift recipient along with those cool dog bookends.

My own dogs
I was active in dog rescue, fostering and placing dogs, for many years before Mom came to live with me, and I had to give rescuing up in the interest of her (and the dogs'!) safety. I'll probably get back into it one day when this herd thins out. Here's some articles about my current dogs and assorted sundries. Note: that dog in the watercolor is my dog Killian. I took a great picture of him and used the watercolor filter in a paint program to transform it. I love it!
