National Dog Day

Krupa Patel

August 26th is a special day for dogs. National Dog Day was founded in 2004 by Pet & Family Lifestyle Expert. This day is for the public to recognize the number of dogs that need to be rescued each year from the different animal shelters. National dog day is not only about rescuing these dogs but it’s also about honoring the dogs that have saved lives, helped the disabled, and just dogs that have been helpful in any aspect. On National Dog Day people in the community are encouraged to make donations to their local rescue shelter, or dog shelter. And even if you can’t rescue a dog or make donations on National Dog Day try to volunteer at your local rescue shelter. Many of these animal shelters run off of volunteers.
