8 Ways to Enjoy Valentines Day with Your Dog

1. Get a Picture Framed

Celebrate your bond by framing a photo of you and your dog. Whether it’s a candid moment from your favourite walk or a professional portrait, having a visual reminder of your love is heartwarming. Choose a frame that is subtly Valentine-themed, with touches of red or heart patterns to add a festive yet tasteful flair.

2. Get Them a Cute Heart Stuffy

Dogs love toys, and a heart-shaped stuffed toy is perfect for the occasion. Not only will your pup enjoy the new plaything, but it also makes for some adorable Valentine’s-themed photos! Make sure it’s safe and durable for your dog’s chewing style.

3. Treat Them to Something Special

Valentine’s Day isn’t complete without a little indulgence. Pick-up a special dog treat—think heart-shaped biscuits, gourmet dog cookies, or even DIY something at home. Your pup will appreciate the extra love that comes with a tasty snack.

4. Upgrade Their Leash, Collar, or Harness

Surprise your dog with a stylish new accessory! A Valentine’s inspired leash, collar, or harness with shades of pink and red can add a festive flair to their daily walks. Check out HOUND Collection for a fantastic selection of high-quality, stylish leashes, collars, and harnesses. It’s a gift that’s both functional and fun!

5. Add a Valentine’s Charm

A small charm added to their collar can be a cute, subtle touch. Look for something sweet, like a heart, paw print, or their initial. It’s a great way to spruce up their look for the holiday! Plus, when you purchase a piece from the HOUND Collection, you’ll receive a free chic Valentine’s Day heart candy-style charm with your purchase.

6. Go for a Pampered Walk

Plan a memorable stroll with your dog on this special day, filled with fresh air, hopefully sunshine, and plenty of joy. Pick a scenic route or a favourite dog-friendly park, and make it a slower, more mindful walk. Take the time to stop at a dog-friendly cafe or park kiosk for a treat. While your pup enjoys a special snack, you can relax with a warm beverage or your favourite drink—a perfect way to treat yourselves together!

7. Get Them Groomed

Pamper your pooch with a grooming session. A fresh bath, a trim, and maybe even a cute Valentine’s bandana will have them looking and feeling their best. If you want to go all out, book a spa day at a professional groomer. And while your furry friend is being treated to some well-deserved pampering, why not indulge yourself too? Treat yourself to a relaxing manicure and enjoy some time to unwind, knowing you're both being spoiled on this special day.

8. Have a “Date Night” In

End the day with some quality bonding time. Prepare a cozy setup with blankets, pillows, and your dog’s favourite spot on the couch. Watch a dog-friendly movie, share some snacks (only safe ones for dogs!), and simply enjoy each other’s company.

 

This Valentine’s Day, let your dog know they’re your forever Valentine! These little gestures are the perfect way to show them how much they’re loved. After all, nothing beats the pure and loyal love of a dog.
