🐶✨ TRAINING THROUGH PLAY: PHOTO CHALLENGE! ✨🐶
Did you know that introducing your dog to wearing different items—like hats, shirts, or even silly sunglasses—can actually boost their training skills?

Wearing costumes or accessories helps dogs get used to new sensations, build patience, and stay calm when handling is involved (like vet visits or grooming). It’s also a great way to practice cues like “stay,” and “pose”!

So this week’s challenge is:

🎩 "Dogs in Disguise!" 🦸‍♂️
Post a photo of your dog wearing their most hilarious, adorable, or creative “disguise.” Bonus points if they hold a pose like a pro!

📸 Share your pup’s photo and tell us their “alter ego” name in the comments below.

✨Fun Photo Friday!✨

We all know dogs have their special items, so let's see some photos of your pups with their favorite toys! Whether it's a squeaky ball, a fuzzy highland cow, or even something totally unexpected—share a pic of your dog having a blast with their can't live without toy! 📸🐶💕

Drop your photos in the comments below and let's spread the doggie joy! 🐾

✨Fun Fact: Sometimes, your dog’s favorite toy isn’t what you’d expect! 🧸 Some pups fall in love with the strangest things—like socks, cardboard boxes, or even a scrap of fabric! Regardless of the item, play is key to enriching your dog’s daily life, helping them stay happy and balanced. Be sure to keep play a part of your routine, with fun games like chase, find-it, tug, and more! Not only does it boost serotonin for your dog, but it’s great for us too!

We can't wait to see all your pups having fun! 🐕🎉
