Love animals AND plants? Sometimes the two don’t get along – you have to worry about plants that can be harmful to your pets as well as pets knocking over or digging up flowers and more. But sometimes they go great together!
And if you’re a real dog lover, we’ve also found some great planters shaped like dogs that help you cultivate a tiny garden while also showing canine love.
Most of these are best-suited for succulents or other plants that don’t require much air or soil. They’re on the small side, but they look fantastic! And they feature all sorts of dogs, too. Surely one will fit your home’s decor.
Let’s have a look, shall we? We can’t wait to hear which one you choose!
Mini Wiener Dog Metal Planter

This is one of the bigger planters among our selections, and the only one made of metal. We really like its metal shop feeling. It’s not quite steampunk, but it’s close to that look and feel. In any case, it’s definitely a cool piece of art that doubles as a planter!
We’re not quite sure that it really looks like a wiener dog, either. Sure, it’s kind of long and low, but the face doesn’t match. Still, it’s a cute dog with a wagging tail and its tongue out!
The planter is 12 inches long and 4 inches wide. It measures 9.5 inches to the top of the head. The space in the planter area can hold 2 or 3 small pots, great for whatever you’d like to grow. It does look bigger in the picture than it really is, but it’s still a cute little piece.
The color is a bit more brown than it appears in the picture. The tail and head do really wag – they’re both attached with springs!
The eyes are marbles, and the metal parts are protected with polyurethane to prevent rust.
WISH HALLY WOOD Labrador Succulent Planter

This cute little white lab is wonderful for on a counter or shelf where you can enjoy the plant and the planter’s design!
Made of resin, it’s about 4.7 inches wide and 3.1 inches tall. Yes, it’s small. But it’s great for a tiny succulent, especially where you want some color but don’t have a lot of space.
Gemseek Dog Succulent Planter Pot

This cute little guy even has a pair of bells around his neck and a fantastic drainage train to stand on! Sure, he’s not going anywhere on his own, but the bells are still a wonderful touch.
This ceramic piece is 5.1 inches long and 2.9 inches high. At the tallest point, it’s just under 4 inches.
That doesn’t allow much room for roots, but for plants that don’t need much, it’s perfect! And we’re always grateful for the drainage in case we slip a bit when watering it.
Wacoil Succulent Planters Set of 3 Dog Planters

If “cute” were a breed, they’d definitely fit! According to the description, these are a bulldog (identifiable by its overbite), a pomeranian, and a husky. We can see that, although you could get by with calling them whatever breed you’d like! (There’s also a set with a corgi, boston terrier, and chow chow – just click the button on the Amazon page!)
These are ceramic and measure 4.7″ by 5.4″ by 4.7″. They do have drainage holes, too!
You’ll really love these for your succulents or other small plants.
Ultimate Innovations “Topiary” Series Dog Planter

This piece is really unique – it’s shaped like a dog but it’s made of coconut husk! That makes it environmentally friendly. It also helps hold moisture.
The dog looks great, and it’s pretty large, too. The planter measures 13.5 by 12.5 by 8 inches. It’s brown – the natural coconut color. And it’s got that incredible bow around its neck, too!
This works best indoors or in a semi-shelter area outdoors, but it can put up with some rain, too.
Wrapping It Up
You can show your respect for both dogs and plants with these great planters! They’re incredibly good-looking and will do well as a home for your small plants. Whether they’re for yourself or you plan to give them as a gift, they make an awesome addition to any home!
