Fun things to do with your dog this fall
Your dog is your best friend, your family, your protector, but they’re also your adventure partner! Dogs love to do things with their humans, but sometimes it’s hard to find activities to do, especially during today’s state of the world. So, just like your dog, I did some digging and came up with some fun things you can do with your pup! The best part is they are all pandemic approved!
Hiking
By far the most popular option, taking your doggo hiking will not only make them happy, but will also make you feel productive, healthy, and energized! This is a great option if you live in an area that has local trails, but make sure the trails allow dogs! If you do not live near any hiking trails, going for a simple walk through an area you’ve never been to is also a fantastic option.
Have a Photoshoot
Hear me out, there is nothing cuter than a dog dressed as a bunny or a fire fighter or even dressed to the nines in a suit! You don’t even have to spend money here, just find some old Halloween costumes or even your own hat collection, lay a white sheet behind you and set that self-timer to 10 seconds! Not only will you create some silly memories, but your dog will have a blast! You could even turn your photos into a calendar, how cute would that be?
Have a Spa Day
Believe it or not, there are actually spas that are designed for you and your pup! This is a great activity for older dogs (or dogs who are tame) who just need a few hours to unwind from that long game of fetch you played the other day! Pet/owner spas tend to go all out with their services, even offering doggie massages, grooming services, and snack boards!
Go on a Long Drive
Perfect for those of you trying to avoid crowds right not, taking a scenic drive through the mountains, along the coastline, even through a city, is a great option to get you and your pup out of the house for a few hours! Dogs love an open window on an empty road, you cannot go wrong here. Bring some snacks for the two of you, find a nice place to park, and enjoy a little picnic! It’s the perfect afternoon!
No matter what you choose to do with your dog, they’re going to enjoy it because the activity is being done with their favorite person, you! Whether you’re taking them swimming, popping a fedora on them, or treating them to a massage, you won’t be disappointed in the memories you create and the smile on your doggy’s face!
