Looking for a great gift for your dog-lovin’ fella? This is the BEST EVER Dog Dad gift — or for mom. (we deserve fun dog loving, too)!

If you’re like me, you’ve spent years helping the kids recognize and celebrate their dad on Father’s Day (and his birthday, and Christmas).

And although he’s not MY dad, I have celebrated what a great father he has always been to our kids.

And at some point you run out of truly great ideas that will really surprise him — and delight him the same way bad puns and dad jokes do. Right?

No Worries – I’ve Got Ya This Year!

This is such a great idea for all those

dog-lovin’ dads,

but also, cat dads

gerbil dads,

how about rabbit dads, perhaps a blueberry loving rabbit named Cannoli?

Why THESE Shirts & Scarves?

I shopped around! All around!

And this is the brand I chose to order. I liked them best because of:

• The design — They turn your image into oil-painting-esque art and then carefully position the faces within the florals and fronds. The face become part of the designs (this is what quality looks like), not stickers sitting on top of the designs.
• Lots of different floral designs — even flamingoes and pineapples!
• The quality of the fabric — it’s a lightweight batiste which will be cool all Summer with great drape. Not stiff!
• Multiple Pets are an option
• Great bandanas — in three sizes.
• Easy to work with
• Shipping Included
• a special 10% discount on all full price items to my followers (Use: DIANEETSYFRIEND code at checkout)!!!
• Great price for the quality and design extras
• Etsy Bestseller

Full disclosure: Once I chose this brand, I reached out to see if they would offer a discount to my followers. They agreed to the discount and they gifted a shirt and scarf to me.

Is Ordering a Custom Shirt Complicated?

NOT AT ALL!

Step 1) Follow This Link

CLICK HERE to see all the Hawaiian Collection (Human shirts, dog shirts, swim trunks, bandanas). Make your choice.

Step 2) Submit Images

Step 3) Approve Proof

Watch your email! 2 – 3 days after submitting, you will receive a mockup of your design.

NOTE: if they do NOT hear back from you with 24 hours, they will proceed as it per the mocked up.

With my proofs, I didn’t like the way our pup’s face looked once the rest of the image was cut away (my bad) and the bandana had the face of someone I didn’t know (their bad).

But this is the sign of a really great company. Let’s face it, in every company makes happen, it’s how they handle them that makes the difference.

I sent a different pup picture and resent the same one of my husband, saying that I thought someone had mixed up files. Both were taken care of in a blink. And the second set of proofs were perfect.

That’s It!

My Shirt & Scarf are Printed and On Their Way

Easy Peasy, right?
