Happy National Dog Day!

Fun fact: I have been talking about hot dogs so much this week, I thought it was HOT DOG Day.

Luckily, it’s way better: today is National Dog Day!

A little about the day from NationalDogDay.com:

National Dog Day celebrates all dogs, mixed breed and pure. Our mission is to help galvanize the public to recognize the number of dogs that need to be rescued each year and acknowledges family dogs and dogs that work selflessly each day to save lives, keep us safe and bring comfort. Dogs put their lives on the line every day…for personal protection, for law enforcement, for the disabled, for our freedom and safety by detecting bombs and drugs and pulling victims of tragedy from wreckage, now they’re detecting cancer and seizures…things even humans cannot do. NDD was adopted into New York State Legislation in 2013. Read more about it here.

Yay! Our day is here! Share this with a dog lover you know and make sure to tag a photo of your best friend with #NationalDogDay #InternationalDogDay pic.twitter.com/WJ2I6QfeS1
