My husband is very difficult to buy gifts for so I am always on the lookout for something unique that he wouldn’t purchase for himself. He casually mentioned one day that he wants to get the kind of shoehorn that you can use standing up. I got to work on the internet and saw quite a few that would do the job but the deluxe with the dog head was so much better to give as a gift! It is well made, has just enough “quirkiness” to be fun But still classy. My husband has two dogs so I picked the one offered that resembled one of ours the most. It arrived quickly. I feel like the price was a bit high for such an item but as I was buying for a gift, it wasn’t so high that I minded. The quality is great.
