9 Things To Do With Your Dog This Summer
Summer is just around the corner. We know that many people have all sorts of plans this year. We’re also happy to see things getting back to normal. Of course, our canine patients also have a few things on their agendas. Read on as an Aurora, CO vet lists some things you can do with Fido this summer.
One-Tank Trips
One great thing about our canine companions? They are always ready to accompany us on trips. You may be surprised at how many great spots there are within a short drive.
Dog Park Play Dates
Dogs are very friendly and sociable, and they do benefit from having time to run and play with their friends. Meet some friends who have dogs of their own at the park.
Drive Thru
Many fast-food restaurant chains have secret menu items available for Fido. You just have to ask! (Starbucks’ puppucino is a good example of this.) Of course, you can also order a burger patty or some deli meat for your pooch.
Cold Snack
Nothing hits the spot on a sweltering summer day like a frozen treat. You can find cold snacks for Fido in many pet stores. Tail wags guaranteed!
Strike A Pose
While there’s no bad time to take Fido’s picture, summer’s golden light offers the chance to take some great photos. Snap some cute shots of your furry buddy!
Take A Dip
Do you enjoy going swimming? Many of our four-legged friends love the water. If Fido is one of them, by all means indulge him. Just be sure to keep a close eye on your pup near the water.
Soak Up The Sun
For many of us, summer means fun in the sun. Carve out some down time for sitting in your yard or patio and just relaxing with your canine buddy.
Higher Education
If your furry pal hasn’t mastered basic obedience commands, you’ll want to start with those. Otherwise, show your pooch some cute tricks. Summer evenings are perfect for training dogs!
Smell The Roses
Dogs are not only our friends and companions: they’re also mentors, in their own adorable way. Fido is a great example of the importance of taking time to stop and smell the roses. Enjoy some tranquil moments with your furry bff.
