Hug Your Dog Day
Wednesday (today), 14 September is Hug Your Dog Day and it is advised that your dog gets a lot of love and attention today!
POLOKWANE – After all, your dog is the one who is happiest to see you when you get home after a long day at work, and the one who curls up next to you on your bed when you’re feeling down. Dogs are loyal, loving and and are known as man’s best friend.
People the world over will be celebrating this special day, inaugurated by canine behaviourist, Ami Moore. The day encourages dog owners to focus on their dogs’ health, safety and happiness, and it celebrates the special bond between dogs and their owners.
Here are a few ways to celebrate the occasion with your dog:
-Take your dog for a long walk.
-Treat him/her to their favorite treats.
-And of course, give them a big hug!
If you don’t have the time or room in your home to cater for a dog but would like to participate, you can volunteer at-or make a donation to your local dog shelter. Time spent at a shelter will bring joy to the lives of dogs waiting to be adopted.
Dogs are special. Give your dog a big hug today.
