Happy National Pet Month!

5 Ways to Celebrate Pets

May is National Pet Month, a time to reflect on the joy and happiness our pets bring to our lives. While pet owners know the benefit of having four-legged companions firsthand, it’s easy to take them for granted. In honor of National Pet Month, here is a list of easy ways to celebrate pets this month – and all year long.

  1. Adopt! Consider adopting a homeless pet or making a donation to an animal welfare organization.
  2. Be Responsible! Your pet relies on you for her well-being. Set aside some time to assess whether your pet is getting the proper diet, exercise, mental stimulation and veterinary care.
  3. Pamper Your Pooch! Treat your dog to an extra Playday or better yet, a visit to the Canine Spa!
  4. Volunteer! Local animal welfare organizations are always looking for volunteers. Contact one near you to see how you can help.
  5. Get Active! Participate in dog-friendly events! In the Twin Cities, Sidewalk Dog keeps an events calendar of dog-centric activities that will keep both you and your pup coming back for more! Or check out one of our favorite dog parks nearby.
