Partying With Your Pooch

As dogs become more of a family member than a pet, it seems as though the luxuries of human life have found their way into that of your four legged friends. Sure dogs get comfortable beds, better food, spend time in a doggy day care when their parents are away but included on a regular basis for pets today is a real birthday party. This is not a little cake either. Now companies like www.gooddogexpress.com, are helping pet parents to come up with full-blown themed parties for both your friends and your pooch’s pals.

Doggy Stats:

In the U.S. alone last year, almost 1 million animals had a huge birthday celebration.

Wonder why people would go to such great lengths for their pooch? Well, when asked that very question, Tyler Hurst had this to say, “I don’t have a child yet. My family pretty much consists of Tiny Toons (the dog) and me…I didn’t want to miss out on all the fun stuff so I decided to have a birthday party for him.”

Whether you are new to this trend or an old regular, here are some party throwing tips:

  1. Pick the right spot to host the event.
  2. Invite the right people and pets.
  3. Decide on a set start and end time.
  4. Send your guests home with yummy treats and gifts.

It’s time to throw a Party!

    We have had 2 birthday bashes for Max, a Luau theme and a Western theme. We just invited the dogs he usually plays with so there was no fighting and served lots of dog friendly food. It was a lot of fun for everyone, and Max slept well that night!
