National Dress Up Your Pet Day

January 14 is National Dress Up Your Pet Day. Founded in 2009, by Colleen Paige, a celebrity pet lifestyle expert and animal behaviorist, this day celebrates our pets and provides an opportunity to show off their fashion style.
Pets are part of our family, and like us, they have their own personalities - whether charming. flirtatious, sassy, or tough. So, put a pretty pink bow or decorative bandana on your special girl, or dress your rugged guy in your favorite sports team pet sweater. If you are creative, you and you pet can dress in matching outfits.
Whatever accessory or outfit you choose, keep your pet's comfort and safety in mind. Remember that this time of year can be quite cold - you may want to put on their warm, fancy sweaters of those long walks. They will not only be comfortable, but stylish too. Do not dress them in anything that can restrict their movements or impair their breathing, and avoid any loose or dangling parts that might be a chocking hazard. Some pets will be resistant to playing dress-up, remember they do have their own personalities! Let your pet decide if it's better to participate or just observe.
If your pet is in a cooperative mood, have fun - and be sure to take photos and share them with family and friends, or post them on social media. Who doesn't love an adorable pet pose?? This may also be a good time for a trip to the groomer to improve appearance with a trim and freshening up.
In keeping with the spirit of this special day, I would like to share a couple of photographs of my dogs as they posed for this occasion. I've named our celebration "Spring is just around the corner!" I hope my stylish pets bring a smile to your face.
So until next time....it's paws up and high five!!!!
