Healthy holiday gifts for your pet

Green toys from Honest Pet Products

Honestpetproducts.com

Created by Mary Wolff, this eco-friendly line of pet toys is made with safe, durable and natural materials. The line's original toy, the Eco-Fetcher (from $9), was inspired by a game of drink-coaster fetch between Wolff and her Yorkies, Willie and Sophie. Since then, Honest Pet Products has expanded to include several natural hemp and wool toys for dogs and cats, made by mentally and physically challenged workers; the brand's sheep's-wool cat toys are handmade by impoverished women in Mongolia. For the holiday season, every purchase comes with a festive reusable tote bag.
