Pups who fall in the middle of the size category are well acquainted with what “just right” means. We researched and chatted with dog parents of collies, shepherds, hounds, bulldogs (the list goes on and on) to put together 31 dog gifts that are perfect for our medium-sized pup friends.

1. BarkBox, $24.95/month

One of the best things about BarkBox is selecting the right options suitable for the lucky pup you’re gifting. That means if you’re shopping for a dog who falls right around the middle in the size category, you can start building your box by selecting “Just Right” where toys and treats are sized for 20 – 50 lb dogs. Each box comes with 2 bags of tasty treats, 2 toys, and 1 meaty chew delivered every month.

Why We Love It:
