National Dog Day 2019

National Dog Day is an annual event celebrated on August 26.
National Dog Day was established in 2004 by animal advocate & pet and family lifestyle expert Coleen Paige.  The aim of the awareness day is to raise awareness about the number of dogs that are currently in resuce centres and encourage the adoption of these animals.
Sadly, each year, millions of dogs become homeless because they are unwanted or their owners are unable to care for them.  National Dog Day aims to encourage people to adopt dogs from shelters and rescue organizations.
If you already have a dog and don’t plan to adopt another one, you can celebrate it in other ways. For instance, you can volunteer at your local shelter, donate to animal welfare organizations, spend some quality time with your dog, buy your dog some treats or a new toy, etc. National Dog Day is about providing dogs with love, compassion, respect and protection they deserve .Every year, numerous events are held on the occasion of National Dog Day. The holiday is actively promoted in the social media.
A lot of additional information about the day and ideas for celebrating it can be found on its official website NationalDogDay.com
