Gifts for nurses who love their dogs

Their own dog or cat in scrubs with a stethoscope, on a shirt for days off and the walk to the car after a long shift.

The best gift for a nurse who loves dogs is one with their own dog on it. Pawcupation draws their pet in scrubs with a stethoscope from one photo and prints it on a soft premium tee, from $35 with free US shipping. You see a free preview in about 30 seconds, so you know it looks like their pet before you pay.

Why nurses love it

Nurses collect mugs, badge reels and tumblers. A shirt of their own pet in scrubs is personal and funny, and it is the one thing on the break room table nobody else has.

When to give it

Nurses Week (May 6 to 12), nursing school graduation, passing the NCLEX, a new unit or a new job, retirement and Christmas.

For the whole unit

Add up to 10 shirts to one order, each with its own pet art, size and color, so a unit can match for Nurses Week or a holiday party.

Other medical roles

Order by December 8 for Christmas delivery in the US.
