Cards, chocolates, and flowers are ok; these are better

The only thing your Valentine will love more is their pet!

It should be pretty easy to make a good impression on Valentine's Day. Some flowers, some chocolate. Boom, done! Right?

Maybe not if your Valentine is an animal lover with their own pack of pets. Chocolate and certain flowers (or plants) can be toxic to pets, which means you could end up in the dog-house with your cute, albeit generic, gesture of love. Fret not, because we have a list with something to delight any animal lover. See, we don't just provide preventative care for your pets, we're looking out for your relationships, too!

Royal Canin Genetic Health Analysis

So, to be up front, you'll need access to your Valentine's dog for this one and it might not have results before Valentine's Day. It requires a blood draw and has to be done at a veterinarian, but the extra work is worth it! By helping your partner know their pet better, you'll show them how well you know them. Not only will the results show you the major breeds in the dog, it will also test for some genes linked to common disorders.

Pet Portraits

This one is a little easier, no need to steal your Valentine's pet for the day, but it can still take some time to get the results. We love Lauren Kaske's pencil drawings which she creates using a photo. What's more personal than a commissioned work of art?

Pooch Selfie

Is your Valentine an Instagram sensation (even if it's only in their head)? What could be a better Valentine's gift than the gift of a perfect profile pic with their photogenic pooch? The Pooch Selfie is available all over the internet and is Prime eligible on Amazon (finally a gift for the procrastinators in the group!) Just think if you get this for your sweetie this year, next year you can use one of the great photos you take to get a pencil drawing!

You can visit the website at poochselfie.com or order it from Amazon.

"Pet Owner Home Rules" Metal Sign

Does your Valentine have a strict cat creedo? Are they tired of their pet policy being unspoken? Help them out with this sign. It clearly lays out the rules to all those non-pet owners that may have something to say about the pets. Honestly, we don't know why they would be inviting non-pet owners into their lives, let alone their homes, but to each their own. 

Find it here on Amazon.

Pets Puzzle

Personally, I can't think of a better gift than a quiet evening at home trying to do a puzzle as my cats try to feed the pieces to the dogs. Pets really up the ante when it comes to puzzles by turning it into a time trial as well. It's a race to finish the puzzle before pieces go missing. Show your Valentine a dangerous night IN by buying them a pet puzzle. Add a glass of wine in a stemmed glass and you're REALLY showing them you're a bad boy/girl.

Find the Cool Cats puzzle at barnesandnoble.com. There is also a Hot Dogs puzzle!

Cat Wine Stopper

Ok, so full disclosure, we only added this to bookmark the item on Amazon for ourselves and because that kitten is freaking adorable. How cool is this wine stopper, though?! This is 100% what a cat would do if it could fit in the bottle. We're sure your Valentine would love this as much as we do. 

Buy it here at Amazon, we are.
