Christmas Good Boy Chewy Advent Calendar for Dogs
A countdown to Christmas your dog gets to join in with — a chewy treat behind every door, one a day through December. 60g in total, so the pieces are small, which is the point: it is a daily moment rather than a sitting. Treats are a top-up rather than a meal: keep them to about a tenth of what your dog eats in a day and take the same off their dinner, or a week of Christmas adds up faster than you think.

A little guidance
Which calendar for which pet
Delivered in 2–5 working days, in plenty of time for 1 December.
| Your pet | Pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| A dog who is fussy or on a mostly-meat diet | Good Boy Real Meat | Chicken breast is the first ingredient at 78%, and the treats are soft enough for an older mouth |
| A dog watching their weight | Good Boy Chewy | Under 1% fat per treat, so 24 doors add almost nothing to the daily allowance |
| A small dog or a puppy | Hatchwell | Small, plain treats that suit a small mouth and a young stomach |
| A cat | Meowee or Hatchwells for cats | Cat-sized meaty treats; a dog calendar is too rich and too big for most cats |
What is actually behind the doors
The composition for every calendar is on its product page, because it is the only thing that separates them. Real-meat calendars list chicken breast as the first ingredient and read like a treat you would buy anyway; the cheaper chewy calendars are mostly starch with a little chicken, which is fine for a dog who just wants the ritual but worth knowing if yours has a sensitive stomach.
A calendar is 24 or 25 small treats over as many days, so it is a token, not a meal. Take the daily treat out of the food allowance for a dog on a diet, and skip the calendar for a dog with a diagnosed food allergy unless every listed ingredient is one they already eat.
When to order
Calendars sell out well before December every year, and once they are gone the only ones left are the ones nobody wanted. Everything here is in stock now and delivered in 2–5 working days, so the calendar can sit in a cupboard until the first. Order early to be safe; there is no reason to wait until the last week of the month.
Cats get their own
A dog advent calendar is not a cat one with a different picture. Cat versions use smaller, meatier treats and leave out the biscuit-style pieces most cats ignore. If you have both, buy both; a dog will happily eat the cat treats, but not the other way round.
Everything here is chosen to be genuinely useful in everyday life with your pet — quality-checked, fairly priced and shipped tracked across the UK. For any health concern, your vet is always the best first port of call.

Common questions
Are dog advent calendars safe?
Yes, as long as the treats suit your dog. Check the composition on the product page, keep the calendar out of reach between doors, and count the daily treat towards the food allowance for a dog on a diet.
Are dog advent calendars safe for puppies?
Some are. Check the minimum age printed on each calendar before you buy, and pick small, soft treats for a young mouth; the meaty strips in the real-meat calendars are better torn in half for a puppy. The daily treat counts towards their food for the day, so take it out of the allowance.
Is there a cat advent calendar?
Yes. The Meowee and Hatchwells cat calendars use cat-sized meaty treats. Do not give a cat a dog calendar; the pieces are too big and too rich.
When should I order a dog advent calendar?
As early as you can, so it arrives well before 1 December. They are in stock and delivered in 2–5 working days, so an order in October or early November arrives with weeks to spare. Late November is when the shelves empty.
