Host a Doggie Birthday Party 

What better way to celebrate a birthday than to have your closest friends over! Most pets love to socialize with other dogs, making a doggie party a fun way to celebrate their big day. We suggest either purchasing or making treats to give out to all of the birthday attendees, with one being bigger and better than the rest for the special birthday pup! 

Take a Trip to the Pet Store

Take a special trip to your local pet store with your furry friend. Let your grip on the leash get a little looser and let them sniff, sniff, and sniff! While doing so, your dog will likely find a toy or special treat that they’re interested in, which you can then buy as a present. After you return home from the store, give your dog the present and let them enjoy every last bit of it!

Park Day 

Most dogs love to take trips to the local dog park. Not only can they socialize with other dogs, but they also get to go off lease! Let your pup run free and enjoy the company of all the different types of dogs for their birthday. Bring along a ball to make sure you can get in some quality fetch time as well!
