If you consider your dog a family member and want to create a deeper bond, make sure to acknowledge them on every little occasion you can. Whether it’s a birthday or a minor holiday, you can always find ways to include your pet into the festivities and strengthen your friendship with them.

Here are some pet holidays you can celebrate with your dog.

National Mutt Day

National Mutt Day is celebrated on July 31 and December 2. It means you have two chances to celebrate this holiday with your mutt. This celebration promotes the importance of adopting mixed-breed dogs. If you have a mixed-breed dog, this is a fantastic time to celebrate their unique characteristics and shower them with love and attention.

National Dog Day

You could celebrate National Dog Day on August 26 with your fur baby. It is a day to honor our most loyal companions by recognizing the role they play in our lives. You can use social media to share a picture of your pet to raise awareness about the importance of adoption and rescue. You can also take your dog for a long walk or treat them to a new toy.

World Animal Day

If you have more than one pet, this is the day to celebrate them all. On October 4, World Animal Day is observed to honor all wild and domestic animals. This occasion provides an opportunity to raise awareness and donate to animal care and protection services. You can celebrate the occasion by volunteering at a local animal shelter.

Shelter Pets Day

Animal shelters Celebrate Shelter Pets Day on the second Saturday in September. It is a day to celebrate and spread the word about the benefits of adopting a shelter pet. If you’re considering getting a new furry friend, this will be a perfect day to go to your local animal shelter and find your perfect match.

Christmas

Who said Christmas was just for children? It is a wonderful occasion to treat your beloved buddy like family by purchasing a present for them. To make them feel like they’re a part of the festivities, you can also gift them a unique holiday-themed costume or accessory or decorate their room or play area with festive lights or ornaments.
