This Friday the 13th, we commemorate our four-legged patriots by thanking our K9 veterans for their loyal service and sacrifice.
National Puppy Day: Sunday, March 23
Celebrate the puppies, celebrate the love, it’s National Puppy Day! Got a puppy in your life? Love it! Want a puppy in your life? Get one! Established in 2006, National Puppy Day was created as a day to show our pups we love them and to bring awareness to the responsibility of pet ownership.
So if you’re thinking about adopting a puppy, use National Puppy Day to research what to expect when adopting a pet and brush up on all the responsibilities of dog-ownership.
