Help- need dog themed decorations for Christmas Tree

[peoplepleaser1]

I'm a dog walker and cat sitter.

I've agreed to do a Christmas tree for our village Christmas tree festival.

I need to keep costs down, and I plan to buy some clear baubles and place a photos of each of the dogs that I walk and cats that I feed in each to hand off the tree. I'll then give these to my customers as Christmas gifts.

I could also attach ribbons to some business cards and hang them off the tree but that feels a bit corporate and boring.

I plan to have a bowl of dog treats on offer at the base of the tree, plus some flyers.

I'd love some ideas as to what else I could hang off the tree, and what I could place in top- ideally dog / cat themed?

DH suggested I buy some cheap plastic dog figures and hang them off the tree but that feels a bit wasteful and plastic.....

If anyone has seen any dog / cat themed decorations about please could you let me know. Plus any more novel / fun / eye catching ideas would be brilliant!

Gingerbread dog and cat biscuits? Or is food not allowed?

(Could do salt dough, I suppose?)

I bought some very cheap plain wooden dog and cat decorations on Amazon.

Could you put in something like tennis balls (balanced in the branches, I dunno!)

Catnip mice?

Small bells and whistles?

Or origami dogs and cats out of wrapping paper:

They do mini tennis balls for smaller dogs - they could be fun to hang as baubles

The photo baubles try hobby craft or ebay

I wouldn't bother with the bowl of treats - partly as the dogs will get a mouthful not one!!!

You could use bonios and red ribbon to hang

John Lewis has cat and dog baubles OP.

I would tie ribbons round gravy bones and hand them on.

Incorporate some cat and dog related puns eg Meowy Xmas
Santa Clawa, Santa Paws

Santa Claws

Rex London had some wooden Christmas tree decorations in the sale for 50p and I THINK some of them had dogs printed on them. It was during last week I had seen them on the website but might be worth a look.

Why not ask for donations of food for an animal charity, (local rescue) and hang photos laminated of the animals it will be helping?

I'm sure I saw some in Sainsbury's today.

Star/fairy/Santa dog/cat toy as a topper.
Vet bed as a skirt.

Make your own dog biscuits and use dog/cat/Christmas biscuit cutters (or go with the bonios as PP suggests)
Rawhide candy canes.
Toothbrushes - bamboo, or Asda used to do a very cheap multipack of white ones, you could personalise with pets' names on in red/green/metallic marker pen.
Cat toys (I've seen sparkly balls somewhere, you need sparkle).
Feathers.
Bells.
You could cut felt pet shapes, but I bet it would be fiddly and take ages.
Get a ribbon and tie up bows and bow ties for collars.
Get a couple of m2 of cat/dog/Christmas fabric and cut bandanas (I'd totally use pinking sheers rather than hem, and fabric glue/iron-on-sticks-it stuff to make the roll the collar goes through).
