Celebrate National Dog Month!
August is National Dog Month!
It’s the perfect time to make our furry family members feel even more loved and appreciated (yes, more than they already are). This month is all about celebrating the unconditional love, joy, and companionship dogs bring to our lives every single day.
Here are a few fun and meaningful ways you can celebrate with your pup:
Schedule an Annual Vet Check-Up - Keep your dog healthy with a preventive nose-to-tail exam. Regular check-ups help your veterinarian spot potential health issues early so your pup can live their happiest, healthiest life. Call the HART Animal Center at 301.387.7729 to schedule an appointment at our Bredel Clinic.
Donate or Volunteer - Shelters like HART are often at capacity and always in need of supplies, funding, and, most importantly, volunteers! Donations help us care for the animals until they find loving homes. Our volunteers give pets the attention, love, and enrichment they need while they wait. Donate here or sign up to volunteer here!
Adopt a New Best Friend - Thinking about adding a four-legged family member? There’s no better time than National Dog Month to adopt. You’ll give a homeless pet a loving home and make room for another dog in need. Meet our adoptable pets here!
Spoil Your Pup - Treat your dog to their favorite goodies, whether it’s a tasty pup cup, a brand-new toy, or a trip to their favorite park. Plan a doggy playdate or simply spend extra time doing what makes them happiest.
National Dog Month is more than a celebration, it’s a chance to strengthen your bond and make new memories with your dog. However you choose to celebrate, your pup will love the extra attention!
