I read a quote last week by R. Benchley that said “Every boy should have two things; a dog, and a mother willing to let him have one.”
I loved that. I know that having a dog can be hard, because they can be more work than the kids sometimes, but the bond that they have is one of my favorite things. I love watching him run to my kids side if he hears them cry. I love that he barks if someone has come to the door and he doesn’t recognize them. I love that he just wants to sit beside you to show his loyalty.
Our favorite thing to do for our dog is to take him to the Dog Park. He LOVES it. He could play there for hours (and he comes home worn out!) I love that Beneful has just launched its 2016 Beneful Dream Dog Park Project, which is an annual effort to help improve and build dog parks across the country. The goal is to provide financial and hands on support to at least 12 dog parks in the U.S., and this year, with GoFundMe is helping to reach that goal. (Beneful has been helping build and upgrade dog parks since 2010)
Dog parks aren’t just for dogs, but also for the owners. I met one of my closest friends at a dog park and now we meet there so our dogs and kids can play! We plan weekly play-dates at the dog park now for the kids AND the dogs (the one that we go to has a kid park right next to the dog park, just separated by a small gate). 🙂
Do you want to win a GIVEAWAY: a Beneful Dream Dog Park ‘dog park pack’ to one reader (that’s what I’m using in the picture!) It has a bag, leash, Frisbee and tennis ball (maybe even a few Beneful coupons!) Just leave a comment below letting me know you’re favorite thing to do with your dog. 🙂
My favourite thing to do with my dog is take him swimming. I have never seen a dog that loves swimming so much. He loves to swim around in circles and chase his favorite ball on a rope toy.
My favorite thing to do with my dog is to snuggle on the sofa and watch tv after my husband and baby go to sleep for the night. It is quiet and finally calm and Luke, our 1 1/2 yr old English Bulldog, will normally fall asleep on my lap and snore quietly as I watch tv. He’s a mama’s boy!
We got a dog a year ago after I had decided “no dogs in the house!” But it was the best thing I could have done for my kids. They LOVE him and it has added a wonderful dimension to our family.
Izzy is now 9 years old and my (OUR) favorite thing to do together is to sit by the campfire watching the flames reach toward the sky and enjoying a quiet moment.
Our favorite thing to do with our Allie Poodle is playing fetch in our back yard. My daughter giggles and claps when Allie catches it and darts back!
My favorite thing is watching my son and dog bailey. Run together, watch her get excited when my husband comes home. She loves running through the sprinklers.
My labs are full of energy and we love to play fetch! My 2 year old puppy will play non stop!
My favorite thing to do with my puppy is teach her new tricks! She’s so smart and learns very quickly 🙂 She has definitely made 2 happy kids!!
I have 2 dogs and 1 Is 10 months and I need stuff to play with him and walk him
We love to go to the dog park too. Our doby just comes alive when we take him and he is allowed to run and play in such a HUGE area with other dogs. 🙂
Our dog is a great big lap dog, and I love to cuddle with her. 🙂
My favorite thing to do with my dogs.. depends on which dog. We have 5. My biggest Baby is a boxer and her favorite thing is walks (otherwise known as dragging mom along!). Three of my chihuahua’s love to cuddle. The other chihuahua is just a puppy so his favorite thing to do is play. He prefers chasing flipflops. 🙂
Love taking my two dogs (his key-shepards) to the local park and walking on the trails. I always bring plenty of water for all. They enjoy walking in the woods and meeting other people and dogs.
That was husky shepards
My dog is currently my baby. He tunnels under the covers at night, when it is time for bed. He sleeps in between my husbands legs, cutest thing ever. I love my peek a poo.
