Do you make New Year’s resolutions? Do you ever make resolutions that involve your dog? That’s right, pups can be included in this practice, too! What kind of goal would your pup want you to make on their behalf? More frequent walks, longer walks, or more one-on-one play time scheduled into the week, perhaps? More naps or belly rubs?
Since no one knows your dog as well as you do, you could create custom and personal resolutions that include your furry friend. Does your dog shed EVERYWHERE? You could consider setting a goal to visit a dog groomer, or even learn how to groom your dog on your own and make it a recurring activity with your pup! Maybe you’d like to set a goal to have more cuddle time with your dog pals! If you have one dog, you could make a goal for more playdates with other pups to help them make friends and stay socialized. There are all sorts of ways we can care for and give love to our favorite creatures, so why not think of them as you look forward to 2023?
Happy New Year from Seattle Pup! We look forward to another year of all dogs, all the time! If you have any dog-centric poetry, information, artwork, or stories that you would like to share with the Seattle Pup community, please reach out to us! We would love to consider your submissions.
