Spoil your dog this Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is here. Do you have anything romantic planned for you and yours? If you don’t, don’t worry, you can make the holiday special by spoiling your pooch, or bringing Fido along on your V-Day date.

1. Gourmet bone. Dog bones are most dogs’ dream, but they can be on the expensive side. Use Valentine’s Day as a good reason to splurge on your pooch. Let Fido dig in while you relax on the couch and pop in a DVD.

2.  Buy some dog wear. Buy your pooch a sweater, shirt, scarf or a cute hat or bow. Take them out for a cup of coffee or to the local shopping center and you’ll be sure to get lots of love and attention.

3.  Make it a date night. Take your pooch to dinner at a restaurant with an outdoor, dog friendly patio.

4.  Take Fido on a doggie date. As long as your dog is well-trained and socialized, call up the owner of your dog’s favorite play mate and set up a doggie date. You can take the two for a walk, or just let them play, supervised, in the yard.
