Treat yo self, more like treat yo dog! National Dog Day is coming up Friday, August 26th so what better time to spoil your dog than on a day dedicated to dogs? There are endless possibilities when it comes to spoiling your dog, but we’d like to give you some of our suggestions we think your dog will LOVE.
Sweet Treat
On this special day, spoil your dog with a sweet treat like a Frosty Paw (ice cream for dogs found in your local grocery store), or get crafty with a DIY treat that will both cool your pet down and give them something to splurge on (try peanut butter & banana). Everyone loves a treat every once in awhile and this is the perfect day to give one to your dog.
New Toy
Dogs LOVE toys and they can also be a great way to distract them while you’re trying to get work done. There are new toys coming out all the time that are not only fun for the dog but also beneficial to their health. So head on over to your local pet store and grab a few new toys.
Comfy Bed
After a few hours of playing hard with their new toy, your dog will no doubt be tired. A new soft, cozy bed would be the best way to treat them after a long day at the park. Again there are a lot of different options to choose from, it just depends on the type of material you think your dog would like the best.
Car Ride
It’s no secret that most dogs love to go on car rides. The wind blowing in their face as they stick their head out the window, what could be better? But it’s important to keep your dog safe while they are in the car, so always make sure they are strapped or harnessed in.
Help Another Dog in Need
While your dog may be the happiest pooch on the planet, there are plenty of dogs out there that don’t have loving families. A great way to celebrate National Dog Day is to help other dogs in need. Head over to your local shelter and bring extra blankets, towels or toys, or you can even donate money.
There are many many ways to celebrate your favorite furry friend on National Dog Day and these are just a few! For more information on your pet and how to help them head on over to our website for more information!
