Man’s best friend: the dog.

A handful of brands are hopping on board the cute dog train with activities and sponsorships linked to the 11th annual National Dog Day, which is August 26.

Would you know what to do if an aggressive dog approached you while you’re out on a walk? “You can lick your lips which is also a calming signal”.

As a result, it’s no surprise that 73% of dog parents buy their dog a special gift (especially dog treats) at least once per month. Attach to seatbelt, clip PupSaver’s tether to your dog’s harness/collar, and go! We are especially excited about National Dog Day founder Colleen Paige’s mission to keep dogs safe while riding in cars.

“Anything that celebrates animals is a good thing”, said the air traffic controller, who splits her time between Pemberton and Vancouver.

Depending on the size of the dog, grab it by the back of the neck. Tell us why you love your pooch and send us a candid shot, a poem or a few lines celebrating the bond that you two share. I think this is wrong because there are little kids around, and some of those dogs can be risky, but I feel bad about ruining the fun for the dogs.

San Diego based Luv Surf Vacation Homes has jumped into the sponsor pool this year. At best they can trip you as they dart across your path, or snag your favourite sweater when they leap up to show you how much they love you. In addition, Loews Regency has partnered with “Sylvia”, an upcoming Broadway production about a New York couple and their relationship with a dog. In honor of National Dog Day, Sant Ambroeus Café will also be serving a complimentary specialty cocktail called “Sylvia”, as well as “puppyccinos” for canine companions.
