Will you <a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/recipes\/gluten-free-grain-free-dog-treat-recipe\">bake your dog a special treat<\/a>? Will you go for a long walk or play fetch with your dog? Would your kitty enjoy some catnip?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you create a day-long celebration of your pet with balloons, friends, and special treats or keep it low-key is up to you. Here are a few ideas of ways to celebrate your special friend.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>1. Spend Extra Time<\/strong> &#8211; Sure, you probably have spent a lot of time together this past year, but it\u2019s extra relaxing for you both if you put down any devices and focus on your pet. Instead of one hand on your dog or cat and the other scrolling through your phone, you can give your pet a massage. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Older pets especially tend to enjoy a massage. You\u2019ll want to wait until they\u2019re relaxed and gently press on and around their joints. If they like it, they\u2019ll usually yawn and stretch out. That will allow you to knead deeper around the hip flexor muscles and loosen them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also <a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/product\/5-best-dog-games\">play games<\/a> with your pet. If you have a dog who lives for fetch, then play an extra-long session. If you have a cat, you can offer them a rousing game of &#8220;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/all-brands\/cat-toys\/fairy-flutter-teaser-wand-cat-toy.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">catch the feather<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>2.<\/strong> <strong>Schedule a Play Date<\/strong> &#8211; Does your pup have a doggie friend they haven&#8217;t seen in a while? Make it a play date. An enclosed backyard is perfect for a bit of pup meet-and-greets and frolicking. Bake a special dog biscuit for the occasion to make it even more special.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>3.\u00a0<\/strong> <strong>Plan a Vacay!<\/strong> &#8211; Plan a visit to a pup-friendly area beach, national park, river, or lake.

Plus, regular grooming can help reduce shedding by catching those loose hairs before they blanket your couch. It also gives you a chance to do a thorough flea and tick check.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>5.

To improve your chances of reuniting with your pet, should the unthinkable happen, make sure to update your dog or cat&#8217;s identification.
