I've pulled together some holiday gift ideas that are really off the beaten path - no need to resort to a Chia Pet this year!

For Your Teenage Niece Who Sulks and Checks her Text Messages During Thanksgiving
Girls Rock! Chicago has pulled together a list of album recommendations featuring great women in rock.  The best part is that the camp will earn a commission if you shop Amazon using their recommended links.

For Your Office Secret Santa - Female
The Japanese Chin 2008 calendar is close to our heart because it features not one but two photos of Pumpkin!  But the best part is a portion of the proceeds will benefit Puppy Love / Love Cats animal rescue.  You can't get this calendar at Borders and there are very few calendars devoted to this special breed of dog.  It sure to brighten up any cubicle.

The Kid's New Puppy or Your Mom's Tiny Lap Dog
Instead of buying a dog coat from the local big box pet store, why not order a special coat from the French Bulldog Rescue Network, where your purchase helps rescued Frenchies?  They are great for stocky dogs like Frenchies and Pugs.
