The holidays are here and with them comes good cheer and happiness. To spread even more good cheer and happiness, we partake in giving gifts to one another. These thoughtful presents not only help bring smiles to the faces of our loved ones, but also help them in some way throughout their lives. If you have pets with special needs, such as dogs with SARDS or cats with glaucoma, getting them a gift this holiday season to help them adjust to living with a chronic disease will not only help them feel more loved, it could even help them live a healthier life. In today’s blog, Muffin’s Blind Dog Halo, the providers of the best harnesses for blind dogs, will go over the best gifts you can give your pets with special needs this holiday. Keep reading to get gift ideas for your special needs pet this season.
Scented Toys
If your pet has lost one of it’s senses, such as sight or hearing, chances are the remaining senses will have increased. One of the best gifts you can get for your blind dog or cat is a scented toy. Because the toy is scented, your pet will be able to find it throughout the house in between play sessions. A scented toy will also help your pet build confidence as well as helping him or her feel even more loved during the holidays.
Most scented toys are made from rubber, making them safe for your dog to chew away on. When you bounce or roll these scented toys, the bouncy nature of the rubber makes for a great challenge for your pet to find. These toys also usually have some kind of squeaker in them to help keep your pet’s attention for the life of the toy. There are even scented toys for blind pets that will float in water, so if your nature loving pooch or H20 curious cat love to take their toys in water, you’ll never have to worry about losing them. It also makes the toys easier to clean when they get dirty or ever get a little too scented.
Blind Pet Harness
Becoming blind is a scary experience for any person or animal. But like any good pet owner, you’ll want to do anything and everything you can to help your pet live a healthy and happy life.

Puzzle Toys
Much like people, pets can get bored, especially after their sight is lost. Pets crave challenge, whether it’s by hunting something or discovering and entertaining themselves with something new. Puzzle toys are designed to help keep your pets entertained for hours on end as they try to figure out how to get treats or other objects out of them. Choose your preferred size and hide your pet’s favorite treat inside then watch as he or she tries to solve the puzzle and get the treats. Buy multiple puzzle toys and hide them throughout the house to get your pet to hunt and play, helping stave off boredom and giving him or her confidence again.
