Today we have not one but TWO gorgeous Matte retractable leashes from 26 Bars & A Band up for grabs! Two lucky readers will get to choose their favourite leash from the above four designs to help kick off that upcoming New Year’s resolution to go for more walks!

Each leash offers a modern chic design and has a polarized, rubber-like coating that feels soft and durable for walking. The ergonomic handle boasts an easy-to-use one brake and release button, as well as a sturdy metal buckle to keep your pup safe! Plus, all 26 Bars & A Band products come with a 3-year warranty!

I personally am in love with the “Keep calm and walk your dog leash.” Walking Rory after a crazy day at work is one of my favourite things to do and this leash would be an awesome reminder! Check out this fun video to truly “Meet Matte” and if you have some time you can view other videos here!

Who doesn’t want to treat their dog to something ridiculously cute over the holidays? I know I certainly do! Although neither of today’s options are great for canines who love to chew and tear things apart, these are wonderful for the gentler pooch who loves nothing more than to carry something around wherever they go. But which would you choose?

The Snowman would make a darling doggy stocking stuffer and suit the season perfectly. He is stuffed with recycled fibres and has a jolly squeak about him.

Or would you prefer to welcome Salsa into your home? A modern reinterpretation of the infamous yeti, this fluffy fellow sports a hilarious expression, hidden squeakers and a surprisingly tough fabric exterior.

Which do you surprise your dog with on Christmas Day morning?

PAWSH PERKS: For the terrier lover in your life, even more great stocking stuffer ideas!

Thanks to the wonderful folks at Lincoln Bark you can let your pups indulge in a few extra treats this season while still remaining healthy! The sweet little Butterpup treats come in four tasty flavours — chicken liver, salmon, oatmeal and pumpkin — and are made from 100% natural-grade ingredients.  There is no wheat, soy or preservatives in these delicious treats. Instead Butterpups are fueled by Chia Seed, a superfood that contains more Omega-3s than wild salmon!

Today one lucky winner will receive four packages of Butterpups (one in each flavour!) meaning you can spoil your pup or share with your canine friends!
