Celebrating Valentine’s Day with Your Dog

It’s February, which means Valentine’s Day. And for us, that means showering our pooches with even more love than usual. Want to join us? Here are five fun ways to show your dog extra love this Valentine’s Day.

1. Schedule a Doggy Date for a Brewery

Dog-friendly patios might not be open this time of year, but that doesn’t mean your pup has to stay home. Instead, check out this handy list of dog-friendly breweries in the area that allow fur buddies inside!

2. Take a Leisurely Stroll

If you want to give your dog something they’ll truly love, head out on a walk with no destination, no time limit, and no cellphone. That’s right! Take a leisurely stroll and let your dog lead the way, stopping and smelling to their heart’s content. Pro tip? You’ll love this walk too if you follow their lead and savor the moment.

3. Plan a Movie Night

Prefer a cozy evening at home? Curl up on the couch and leave plenty of space for your dog so the two of you can snuggle up. Then, tune in and watch a romantic movie. Must Love Dogs, anyone?

4. Make a Romantic Dinner for Two

Who says you can’t include your dog in your dinner plans? Whether your favorite meal of the day is breakfast, lunch, or dinner, these dog-friendly recipes will have your Valentine loving you for life.

5. Head Out on a New Adventure

You don’t have to break the bank to have an adventure, especially if you have a dog around! Simply set your sights on a new destination you two can go together! These outings can be as simple as taking a walk in a different neighborhood or heading to a city, county, or state park nearby. No matter where you end up, you can share a new experience filled with fresh sights, sounds, and smells.

And remember, there’s no time limit on love. Valentine’s Day may last for 24 hours, but you can shower your dog with extra affection every day of the year.
