Holiday Gifts for Greatest American Dogs on Display

Long Island City, NY –– These days, it doesn’t take a national TV appearance to win the title of “Greatest American Dog.” Canine owners across the country have already bestowed their beloved pets with the honor. They’re also pampering and spoiling their furry friends with an ardor worthy of the distinction. This year, the New York International Gift Fair will cater to these dog-owning indulgers by showcasing ArfDog’s entire creative collection of dog-themed gift boxes. Slated for August 17–20 at the Metropolitan Pavilion in New York City, the 2008 New York International Gift Fair will feature an expanded “New York’s Newest” division, where first-time exhibitors will be put in the spotlight.

Held twice annually, the New York International Gift Fair features the world’s best home, gift and lifestyle resources. Each of its 2,800+ exhibitors is hand-picked to reflect the industry’s best. And what dog owner doesn’t want the very best for his or her four-legged best friend?

The National Retail Federation estimates that between four and six percent of holiday gifts are returned after the holiday. The results of a survey conducted by the federation also indicate that more than one in three consumers (37.6 percent) return at least some portion of their holiday gifts. With a dog lover, one can’t go wrong with a gift that acknowledges both pet and owner. And because ArfDog’s gift boxes are so unique, they make for virtually return-proof gift ideas.

Chock full of high-quality dog bowls, dog treats, dog toys, dog grooming treatments and other personalized doggy items, Arfdog’s bundled gift box packages come in five different themed varieties.

The Sporty Gift Box caters to the active dog owner while regal canine princes and princesses receive the royal treatment with the Spa Gift Box. Every day is a fun-and-sun day surfside with the Beach Gift Box while the New Puppy Welcome gift box pampers the newest addition to the family. And the seven out of 10 people who are taking their pets with them on vacation will go woof-woof over the Sleepover Suitcase.

Specialty dog boutiques, high-quality gift shops, hotels and other pet-friendly retail establishments that would like to carry the ArfDog gift box collection this holiday season can test out the merchandise at the 2008 New York International Gift Fair by visiting booth #9703. Interested media are encouraged to arrange a personal interview with ArfDog by calling (512) 514-6045.
