    To help you along:

    'Dog' (alternate name) + 'tore' (alternate name) = 'present' (not necessarily a gift)

    I'm looking at the clue and the answer and still can't correlate the two.

    I can see 'pa hops around' gives ap, how does 'teot' relate to the rest of the clue and there is also nothing that indicates the final answer of 'teapot',

    or am i just having a senior moment with my brain in neutral?
