Raise Your Paw For National Dog Day

Here at Cowgirl, we love our animals, especially our dogs. We would be lying if we said we haven’t been waiting awhile for National Dog Day. An excuse to shower our pets with treats, gifts and love? As if we need an excuse, but it’s nice to have one! Not only is this day an exciting day for all dog parents, but it’s a great day for those who would like to adopt a dog. Be sure to visit your local shelters if so and save a dog’s life! Below are just a few fun ways to show your fur baby you love them on National Dog Day.

KONG Classic Dog Toy

What dog doesn’t love a Kong? These toys are very ideal for those pups who have strong teeth and can chew through anything. You can dispense treats from it or throw some peanut butter in there to keep them busy and happy! Available at Petsmart, $8 and up.

Get Them A Friend

Are you ready for a second fur baby? National Dog Day is the perfect day to take the leap. Make sure you do a greet and meet with your current dog to ensure they get along. Not only will you be getting your dog a best friend for life, but you’ll be saving another dog’s life! Get more information from your local Humane Society or ASPCA.
