Pamper the Pooch

Happy Sunday, Missians!

We're back in the house!  I've missed you guys and couldn't wait to get back into gear to serve you another dose of popular pet topics from The Missy Show.

Today's post is in celebration of a pet holiday that was actually on August 10th, but is still one that can be celebrated any day, (or everyday for that matter).  The holiday in question is "Spoil Your Dog Day."  Dogs and puppies bring so much joy to the lives of their pet parents; so why shouldn't the pups receive some extra care, love, and attention in return?

In today's blog entry, we go over some "pawsome" ways to spoil and pamper your special pooch.  Today's info is courtesy of Canada Vet Express.com:

Pawsome Ways to Spoil Your Dog on National Spoil Your Dog Day


Adventurous Walk or Ride
There’s nothing like an adventurous road trip with your furry buddy on National Spoil Your Dog Day. And don’t worry if you don’t have a vehicle because there’s always the alternative. Instead, take your canine friend for a long walk in and around the neighborhood. It may not be as exciting as a road trip, but he will still love you for your effort for taking him for a nice walk.

Lunch or Dinner Date
How about a lunch or dinner date with your furry munchkin? Probably unheard of, but going on a date with your dog is something pet parents should plan on doing this National Spoil Your Dog Day. But before you get all excited, make sure you plan for it in advance and do your research well because not many restaurants allow pets. So before implementing this idea, search for nearby restaurants that lets you have a meal with your pal!



Home Cooked Treats
Remember, it is National Spoil Your Pet Day, and that means doing something special for your fur baby. What better way to celebrate this special day than by making some delicious home-cooked treats for him! Just some simple treats would even do because don’t worry; your buddy will not judge you. He will munch on it with glee and will love you furever.


Groom in the Room 
If you have always taken the help of a professional groomer to groom your dog, then the time is right for you to finally step on the arena and groom your canine pal. Grooming sounds difficult, but in reality, it’s pretty simple and fun to do. Your pooch will certainly enjoy his grooming session, and guess what; you get to spend some quality time with your munchkin. How adorable, isn’t it?


It's Time to Play
Apart from food and sleep, dogs love playing, even more so when you join in the fun. This National Spoil Your Day why not surprise your buddy by playing some interesting games with him. Fun games like fetching the ball, running around, hurdles, musical hula hoops, etc are great ways to connect and spend time with your dog. Play with him, and he’ll definitely feel extra special.

Gifts, Gifts, and More Gifts
National Spoil Your Dog Day means spoiling your dog with gifts. You could either buy him all his favorite toys, treats, essentials, etc or better; take him dog shopping with you and purchase these for him. It’s his day to get spoilt, so pamper him with all the things he needs. He’ll love you more for sure!




Sprinkle More Love
We do know you love him with all your heart, but on National Spoil Your Dog Day love him a little more. Do all the things he loves, and for once, don’t scold him. Maybe a little if he’s being naughty, but that’s it. Sprinkle all your love upon him and make the day extra special for him.

That's it for today's post.  I hope you guys were inspired to spoil your pups today, (or any pet other pet you own).  Remember being kind and loving to your pets is essential!  You can amp it up every August 10th, but this is a great practice to have on a smaller scale everyday.

I'll see you guys all back here on Wednesday for tips on protecting your dog from mosquitoes.
