6 Memorable Ways to Celebrate Your Dog’s Birthday

Most dogs think they’re human, so it just makes sense you would make a big deal about their birthday. Dogs give us all of their love and devotion, so it’s important to give them all they deserve on their own special day. We have six memorable ways to celebrate your dog’s birthday.

 

1. Bake A Doggy Birthday Cake

 

Baking your dog a personal pupcake, their own birthday cake, is essential for their birthday. There are many different cake mixes made just for dogs. These are safe and healthy for all pups. You can also use things you have on-hand like flour, baking soda, applesauce, and eggs. It’s so much fun creating a birthday cake for your dog. You get to have a blast making it, and they get to enjoy every bite. You can also order a dog birthday cake from certain companies.

 

1. Puppy Ice Cream

 

Dogs aren’t good with human ice cream because of digestive issues, but puppy-friendly ice cream is a special treat. You can make it right at home with bananas, yogurt, and peanut butter. You simply freeze it to make it the perfect consistency. If you want to go another route, freeze beef or chicken broth to make puppy popsicles. No matter the time of year, you can’t go wrong with puppy ice cream or puppy popsicles.

 

1. New Dog Toy

 

Everyone deserves a new toy for their birthday. Go give your dog their favorite toy. Whether they love a squishy animal or a tough bone, let them play like they’re a puppy for their big day. Most dogs love Kongs, tennis balls, and small stuffed animals. You can even wrap it for them. Watch them rip open the paper to get to their toy. They’ll be like a little kid in the candy store.

 

1. Take A Trip To The Dog Park

 

Dog parks are fun for everyone. Dog parents get to visit with other people while the dog has a blast with other friends. Visit an exciting dog park in the area with lots of amenities. There are many with little ponds and lots of area for running free. Dogs love the freedom, and you don’t have to worry about them running away on their own birthday. Try out a new park to keep it new and exciting for them.

 

1. Pamper Them

 

Puppy pampering involves a lot of relaxation for your dog. There are actually doggy spas where pups enjoy all sorts of treatments. Haircuts, nail trims, and massages are only the beginning of a day of pampering. If you don’t want to take them to the puppy spa, you can create your own pampering time at home. You can start the day with a puppy bath, go for an extra round of brushing, and give your own massage. If your dog isn’t into this pampering, spend time petting their coat and sitting with them.

 

1. Take A Trip To A Dog-Friendly Restaurant

 

There is an overwhelming amount of dog-friendly places that welcome your friendly pup. Take them to the patio or inside for a special treat. Many restaurants offer specialized dishes just for your dog. They usually set out special dog bowls, and will even bring your dog a birthday cake on their big day. It’ll be a great time to hang out and let your dog enjoy the scenery and food as you celebrate them.                       

 

Celebrating your dog’s birthday should be one of the best times of the year. Watching the sheer joy on your dog’s face as they enjoy a day all about them is priceless. Dogs make like better, so show them how special they are on their big day.
