Dog Advent Calendar Taste Test

We all know that the countdown to Christmas is just as exciting as the day itself.

Our advent calendars offer us humans a tasty chocolate treat each morning to help us get through those colder starts and build up the anticipation to that special day. Now, thanks to some furbulous canine companies, your dog can have their very own dog advent calendar and join in with the festivities too!

But with so many choices out there, how will you know which your pooch will prefer? Luckily, we have a whole pack of four legged taste testers on hand to give their verdict. So we rounded up three of this year’s hottest dog advent calendars and took to the fields!

First up, the Scrumbles advent calendar. After a full sniffspection from our Puppy Pre-school, it was time for them to show us their best ‘Sit’, ready to sample the tasty, all natural treats inside. Each window holds 2-3 delicious grain and gluten free treats – from dog dental sticks to chicken nibbles. It’s safe to say they went down a storm! We loved the affordability and variety of treats in this one, perfect to keep them engaged throughout December.

Next it was the turn of the Skippers advent calendar – which is definitely one for the fish lovers! Our pooches went wild for the smell of the fishy delights – especially the fish skin cubes. The gourmet calendar also features salmon and white fish cubes, which Bagel the beagle gave 12/10 for tastiness! It’ll definitely be a very Merry FISH-mas with this advent calendar!

Last, but certainly not least comes the Lily’s Kitchen advent calendar. While these Christmas meat-inspired treats may be more towards the high-end, our dogs absolutely loved them (when we could prize them away from Ted the labrador!) The grain free and chewy treats each had over 68% meat content, so good luck giving in to those puppy dog eyes with this one. The elegant packaging makes this advent calendar even more a showstopper.

It’s clear that there are plenty of options for our furry friends this Christmas. The best choice ultimuttly depends on your dog’s tastes and preferences, but these dog advent calendars all get a 12/10 from our Bruce’s pooches! So, as we count down to the festive season, consider treating your dog to their own doggy advent calendar to make their holiday season as joyful and tasty as can be!
