Jack Russell Terrier, Schnauzer and Sheltie Dog Jewelry Gifts at ForLoveofaDog.com

Are you ready for the holidays!  Shop For Love of a Dog Jewelry for unique, one of a kind gifts for the dog lovers on your shopping list.  Your special friends will love my handmade dog breed jewelry and if you hurry, you might be able to snag a Christmas ornament in your favorite dog breed.

That "hurry" is not just a public relations ploy.  I'm closing up shop, so when these items are sold, there will be no more.  In fact, some dog breeds are already sold out.  There are just a few Dog Mom bracelets and dog rescue jewelry still left.  So, seriously, hurry!

Just to make it even more fun...  EVERYTHING IS ON SALE!  Yep. Really.  And I'm still offering free standard shipping to all US addresses.

Shown at top is my Jack and Parson Russell Terrier dog jewelry and as you can see, it is almost sold out.  Right now I have 4 adorable necklaces still available including that super cute Santa dog necklace.

I've always had quite a bit of Schnauzer dog jewelry, so I still have a pretty good selection.  Choose from 2 bracelets, 2 pendants, 5 necklaces, 2 pins and there is even one Schnauzer dog Christmas ornament still available.  

There is also a pretty good selection left in my Shetland Sheepdog dog jewelry. As I write this, I still have 8 bracelets, 2 necklaces and 2 sculptural Sheltie dog pins available. Be sure to also check my Collie dog jewelry because many of those pieces could also represent your Sheltie dog.

Jack Russell Dog Breed Jewelry Pendant

Jack Russell Dog Pendant

You can call it a Jack Russell dog or a Parsons Russell dog. Either way this is a wonderful dog breed pendant from For Love of a Dog.

The Jack Russell dog breed charm is beautifully hand sculpted and painted by a Wisconsin artist. True to AKC breed standards, highly detailed and absolutely beautiful. Two dimensional; not a flat cut out.

I've hand wire wrapped this little dog treasure with sterling silver wire and a big lovely black onyx puffy heart. Sterling silver accents. Perfect dog pendant to wear on your own silver necklace, a ribbon or cord. Great way to show your love for this dog breed to the world and a barking good dog lover gift.
