Father’s Day Dog Dad Gifts: Tail-Wagging Treasures With Heart

Most people do their charity donations at the end of the year. But how can you support great charities and find great Dog Dad Day gifts all at once?

If you’re like me, you love finding a gift that fits the person just right. With this in mind, today, let’s dig in and discover some fur-rific gifts that will wag tails with a “Scooby Snack” charity bonus to each.

First, to make this list of paws-some gifts, there must be a pet-focused giveback with the purchase. In other words, these gifts allow you to give twice (once to your gift recipient and second to the charity associated with the buy). That’s wag-worthy in my book!

Budget tip:
Gifts, especially for Dog Dad or Father's Day, can be expenisive. However, you can find discounts and sales. Personally, I love to find gifts that match the person's personality or style best. Then ramping it up with a company that givesback makes it a no-brainer of a purchase. It's how you can make a positive impact in the world and give a great gift as well! It truly is the best of both worlds!

1. For dog dads who love to travel with their dogs

The Pup Passport (Remington’s Pup Memory Passport) is such a cute idea from the mind of Pennies Places and Paws.

I can hear you saying what is The Pup Passport? Fair enough. Simply put, it’s a unique way to document your dog’s travel adventures with you. Specifically, it’s a booklet that you can add:

• Vacation photos
• Medical and insurance info
• Write fun memories
• Stamps from different locations or parks

Plus, Pennies Places and Paws can customize a page with your dog’s specific details. How amazing is that? Plus, the turnaround time is terrific as well. She has it in the mail in less than a week. Take that Amazon!

Of course, you can also add the details yourself. Either way, it’s a great gift idea!

Plus, for every purchase, $1 is donated to the non-profit organization, World Vet.

2. For those dog dads living with an Epi-Dog

I can only imagine how scary it must be to get a diagnosis of Epilepsy as a dog parent. But, I do know where I would turn. Without a doubt, it would be FiveSibes and Dorothy Willis-Raftery.

According to the FiveSibes website, “there are over 600,000 dogs living with epilepsy in the United States alone.” WOW!!!

However, if I want to be supportive of a dog dad with an Epi-Dog, I’d give this award-winning book, EPIc Dog Tales. It’s a beautiful coffee table book about dogs thriving with the disease. Dorothy is a warrior in the Epi-Dog world along with her fur angel, Gibson. Who better to turn to for inspiration?

“…I learned so much in my quest to give the best life possible to Gibson…”
~ Dorothy Willis-Raftery

Plus, I can tell you Dorothy is continuing her quest daily to help dog parents with Epi-Dogs. She’s an absolute marvel!

Additionally, a portion of the proceeds from each book sale goes to helping other Epi-Dogs. There’s no going wrong with this gift!

To order EPIc Dog Tales, simply email:
Ar*******************@***il.com
Make sure to put EPIc Dog Tales in the subject line.

Do you know that purple is the color for Epilepsy? If you don’t, then that may be a good thing. But you may have a friend who could use some support.

3. For the coffee-loving (and more) dog papas

I have to say I love my morning coffee. Actually, I can be a bit of a coffee snob. I don’t like just any kind of Java. It must meet my standards. Do you know other dog moms like me? I bet you do.

That’s where Husky Coffee Co. comes into play. They have fur-rific coffee. But even better, they give 20% of every purchase to 280 rescues across the US.

However, Husky Coffee Co. offers more than just coffee. They have tea, dog treats, apparel, and other gifts for nearly any type of pet parent. Even better, they have put together an entire Father’s Day Collection, which includes coffee and apparel.

“Our founder, Oliver Carson, was a humane society volunteer when he was younger, and started Great Dane Coffee Company in honor of his Great Dane, Fetty. Seeing the impact, he expanded into 30 breed-specific brands…”

~ Husky Coffee Co.

This amazing company donates tens of thousands of dollars (and pups will be happy, also tons of dog treats) each year to rescue organizations. I’d say that deserves a paws-up for Husky Coffee Co.

Go here to purchase a great gift from Husky Coffee Co.

But if you would like to make a great homemade gift for the pet parents on your list, you will find a lot of ideas in this article.

4. For dog dads who love fun socks

I have a confession – I love fun socks! Many men do as well. While I won’t make any fashion runway with my socks, I love them. They make me smile, and not many people see my socks anyhow. So, really they are for me, right?

If you have a friend who loves fun socks, then Conscious Step has the perfect gift for you. Conscious Step has partnered with Best Friends Animal Society to give back. And they’re doing it in a big way by donating $1 from the sale of each sock that goes to shelters around the country to help save dogs. Specifically, these proceeds go to food, services, and different adoption needs.

But even better, these Socks That Save Dogs come in 5 colors and styles. And they are VERY cute! I have to say they’d make me smile.

“We believe that no matter how small, your actions make a difference. The things you do inspire those around you and create a ripple effect of change.”
~ Conscious Step

Who couldn’t get behind this thought?

5. For the candle-adoring dog dads

I have mentioned in the previous posts that my dog, Henry, isn’t fond of fire. But I do love the smell of a good candle. Many men love candles as well. In fact, sometimes a great candle can make a room feel fresh and new. However, when I do light a candle, I make sure it’s out of sight of Henry.

If you have a dog daddy who loves a good-smelling home, then the folks at Scripted Fragrance may have the perfect gift for you.

The inspiration behind Scripted Fragrance is a cute Dachshund, named Dixie-Lee, and the founder’s beloved South Carolina. It’s a mix that has worked well and gives back as well.

Heart-warmingly, 5% of the purchase of each of these candles is donated to the North Shore Animal League of America to help animals in need.

“There are dogs, and then there is everything else. The bond between humans and our fur babies is unbreakable. It’s impossible to capture the spirit of our canine companions, but that doesn’t stop us from trying. This is where the idea behind Scripted begins.”
~ Scripted Fragrance

That’s a company I can definitely get behind as a dog mom of a rescue pup!

6. For the chocolate-loving dog dads

Do you have a chocolate lover on your list? This is definitely on my radar.

Besides, who doesn’t love a little something sweet? Especially when you can give back.

The folks at Rescue Chocolate give 100% of their net profits to animal rescue organizations around the US. Yes, that’s correct, 100%! How amazing is that, right?

Another great aspect of Rescue Chocolate is that all the products are vegan. Even better is that they have fun with their product names to call attention to dogs in need. For example, you can purchase chocolates called:

• Peanut Butter Pit Bull, calls attention to the breed misconceptions
• The Fix, reminds people of the need to spay and neuter pets
• Foster-iffic Peppermit, highlights the importance of fostering pets

“…the sweetest way to save a life!”
~ Rescue Chocolate

They could be right!

7. For the California wine-loving dog dads

Rescue Dog Wines is an award-winning California winery. They help a multitude of dog rescues and organizations. Moreover, they donate 50% of their profits (yes, you read that correctly) to save and help dogs. I have to say that’s freaking amazing and definitely wag-worthy!

“Our mission is to support the placement of as many rescue dogs as possible into loving homes through wine sales and donations.”
~ Rescue Dog Wines

That’s a great mission. One, I fully support!

8. For the Oregon wine-loving dog daddies

Rascal Wine is another award-winning winery. However, they are located in Oregon, for those who prefer a Northwestern taste to their wine.

Currently, this winery has donated over $100,000 to the Humane Society of the United States. That’s rather remarkable!

Oh, and the name “Rascal” is in memory of their best winery buddy, a Golden Retriever named Rascal.

“We believe that all things good in life are improved by our four-legged friends and hope to infuse that playful, fun nature into everything we do while giving back to our furry friends.”
~ Rascal Wine

I’d say that is something we can all take to heart.

9. For the dog dad who loves handmade vodka

Tito’s Vodka for Dog People is a true dog and pet-loving company. Their workspace is even dog-friendly. In fact, the pups are called co-woofers. Although cats are welcomed and included as well.

Currently, this company is focused on giving through an affordable nonprofit vet care organization (Emanicipet Nonprofit Pet Care), and two other organizations that fly rescue pets to new forever homes (Wings of Rescue and Pilots N Paws). Each organization they donate to is amazing and Vodka for Dog People is definitely making a huge impact in needy pet’s lives.

“…we love making vodka, but we may love dogs even more.”
~ Tito’s Vodka

I’d say they are putting their words into action and I love it!

10. Anything you can imagine for a dog dad

Not sure what to give? Then iheartdogs could be the place for you to check out. They have a wealth of products, including dog supplies, collectibles, home decor/products, gardening items, and various apparel for dog parents. Even better, every purchase goes to help dogs in need.

Moreover, they donate meals, toys, blankets, and transportation, along with financial donations to dog-focused organizations and shelters.

But if you need a cat-focused gift with a charity component, then try their sister site – iheartcats, which focuses on supporting cat charities with each purchase.

“As of 2023, we have raised OVER 31,084,300 meals, donated 87,255 blankets, provided 231,733 toys, covered 310,147 rescue miles, and much more! None of this would be possible without YOU, our iHeartDogs Heroes.”

Maybe you’re thinking about giving a dog as a father’s day gift? There is a right and wrong way to give a dog. In this article, I share the secrets.

Tails-Wag for Dog Dad Gifts! Shop, Spoil, and Support Furry Friends in Need

I admit I don’t like shopping. Also, I’m like most folks and do my charity donations at the end of the year. But when I find the perfect gift and it has a charity twist, I don’t hesitate to buy. I jump (or wag my tail) with joy at such a great find.

However, when that gift has a higher purpose, such as giving back to help other pets in need, then it’s even more thrilling. All these companies and people have big hearts, which makes my purchase much easier.

I suspect every dog dad who receives a gift from me will be excited. Moreover, I’ll be happy knowing I succeed in finding great gifts, but that they are giving even more.
