Celebrations don’t always need an occasion. Celebrating with your sniff-sniff buddy at home is anytime joy. Pull out your party shoes when your dog has turned a year older. As for the remaining days, here are some wacky ideas to get into a gala time with your canine special that works in favor of pet humanization trends.
The Growing Admiration of Dog Parties
‘Pets as a family’ is emerging as a natural expression of pet lovers who are increasingly treating pets as their children. The products meant for the pet owner are also fitting in the pet segment. Examples, chemotherapy, hip replacements, pet supplements like omega-3s, and luxury services like hotel rooms are common to humans and pets.
According to Pet Products & Services Market Report by Packaged Facts, a trusted market research body for pet products and services, more pet-owning households in the U.S. are contributing to the demand for pet-driven products. The well-being of pets and their longevity is influencing the consumer behavior of pet owners. This signals the growth in purchasing power of humans for their pets. Spending on pet luxury is a natural outcome in pet owners, a trend that is boosting social habits and interactions of pets.
1. Puppy Shower
A baby shower is to announce the pregnancy of a woman. But a puppy shower is a welcome party for the pup to celebrate its inclusion in the family. Do it with style and aplomb by throwing in a cocktail for your friends, neighbors, and social contacts. A party present for your four-pawed member from them will be an icing on the cake. Dress up your dog with add-ons like crown, bow tie, cap, and other frills in a riot of colors. Your dog has to look camera-friendly, so make the overall get-up of the dog Instagram-worthy. Put on your thinking cap to get your dog put up a pout that will make his canine friends feel jealous. Competition is good among dogs!
2. Birthday
A birthday is a day of pampering. So, go that extra mile to make a date, month, year of your pug unique and memorable. Start with the birthday costume. There is a range of frocks and Dog Jackets to make them look just right for a magazine cover or a social post. Chalk out a list of their eatables. Their birthday treat has to exceed a simple dog biscuit, so move on to doggie delights like a meat pie, a bone-shaped birthday cake, fruit salad, and cocktails. Call for a musical band to sing your dog a birthday song.
Cuddle them so that they feel on top of the world. Sign up for a Dog’s Birthday club to make their date stay very much in your mind. Don’t forget to buy balloons and glitter for your dog’s party celebrations.
3. Best Obedient Animal
A dog is the most loyal animal. But is the male and female pup equally obedient? Licking you is all right. Is your pup disciplined in eating meals, going to bed at the right time, and potty habits? If yes, then show your appreciation by throwing a celebration party for your precious poodle. You could get him a doggy-sized tiara with ‘Royal & Pawsome’ written on it. Give human guests bone-shaped treats. Use carobs in place of chocolate for your Ms or Mr. Obedient Pet. They are safe substitutes for the chocolate and are suitable for dogs.
4. Canine Weddings
Pets tying the knot is an out-of-the-world experience to see and cherish. Now that the canine mister and miss are entering a new phase of their life, their wedding party should be dog-some. Put up welcome signs on their behalf at the venue, their face imprints on the coffee or cocktail mug, custom-printed popcorn bags with their photos, their cardboard cut-outs serving as face masks for the guests and on the wedding cake. Such ideas will get the attendees drooling in this good tail time.
5. Halloween
A dog Halloween party is a big show. When you decide to throw a Halloween bash for your dog, make sure it is wide enough to accommodate all the dogs and their owners.
