Do you love your dog?  Well, chances are you're not alone.  Check out these ideas to spoil your dog.

1. Doggy Date

Take your pet out for the day! Here are a few places you can go: the groomers for a spa day, doggy daycare, the pet store, the dog park, the vet for a social visit, the lake for swimming, play-date with the neighbor’s dog or a family member’s dog, or a nice walk! Your dog will love this day full of field trips! Tip: leave your cell phone in your pocket so your dog has your undivided attention.

2. Quality Time

Spend time with your pet! Whether this means extra cuddles, playing a game, or going out- your pet will love just having a lot of time with you! You may even want to spend some of this time teaching your pet a new trick!

3. Get Some Dog Accessories

If your pet’s in need of some new accessories, consider spoiling your pooch with these retail therapy items:

  • Collar
  • Leash
  • Harness
  • Car seat
  • Carrier
  • Bed
  • Food dish
  • Water dish.

4. Take your Dog in the Car 

Take your dog for a ride! What dog doesn’t enjoy a breezy car ride? Take a short drive around the neighborhood — or better yet, to the pet store for a new toy or a special treat. Open all the windows and let your dog sniff the wind as it fills the car.

5. Eating Out

Choose your favorite dog-friendly restaurant and take your best friend out for a quiet dinner for two. You can go as upscale or as low-brow as you want. The time together (and select scraps of people food) will be spoiling enough for your best friend.
