As December rolls in, it’s time to sprinkle some holiday magic into our furry friends’ lives!
Dogs are part of the family, so why not include them in the festive fun?
From cozy traditions to exciting activities, here’s how you can create a Doggy Wonderland to make this season unforgettable for your pup.
1. Deck the Halls (Safely!) π
Include your dog in the holiday decorating! Hang ornaments and tinsel out of reach and choose pet-friendly decorations, such as shatterproof baubles and battery-operated fairy lights. Add a festive doggy touch with a stocking for your pup or a holiday-themed blanket for their favorite napping spot.
2. Wholesome Holiday Treats π¦΄πͺ
Bake up some holiday magic with DIY dog-friendly treats. Use ingredients like peanut butter, oats, and pumpkin to create festive biscuits. Pro tip: Use cookie cutters shaped like bones, paws, or holiday icons for extra festive flair!
3. Wrap Up Paw-some Gifts ππ
Spoil your dog with a special present under the tree! Whether it’s a new toy, a cozy winter jacket, or their favorite treats, unwrapping gifts together will get their tail wagging. (Just make sure to avoid ribbons and bows that could be a choking hazard!)
4. Take a Festive Walk βοΈπΎ
Explore a winter wonderland together! Find a dog-friendly park or trail and soak in the beauty of the season. Add a bit of sparkle by letting your pup wear a festive collar or bandana. Bonus: It’s a great way to burn off those extra holiday treats!
5. Capture the Magic with Photos πΈβ¨
Create lasting memories by staging a holiday photo shoot with your pup. Dress them in a Santa hat, reindeer ears, or a festive bow tie. Use holiday backdrops or props like presents and fairy lights for that picture-perfect moment.
6. Doggy Advent Calendar ππ
Count down the days to Christmas with a doggy advent calendar filled with small toys, treats, or surprises. It’s a fun way to include your dog in the excitement of the season while rewarding them for being on the “nice list.”
The holiday season is all about giving back. Consider donating to a local shelter or volunteering at a dog rescue to help less fortunate pups. Your dog might even enjoy coming along to spread cheer!
